Trail Rated ground clearance gives you plenty of room between the underside of your Jeep and the terrain, allowing you to drive over rocks and logs while preventing underbody damage. In addition, the approach angle, breakover angle, and departure angle are all maximized, helping drivers go over when going around isn't possible. For example, the Jeep Gladiator Rubicon has 11.1 inches of ground clearance, so you can confidently drive over obstacles.

With Trail Rated capability on your side, your Jeep will traverse bodies of water that other vehicles wouldn't dare attempt. Electrical connections and body openings are sealed, and the air intake is positioned higher to help protect your Jeep when driving through overflowing creeks, streams, and deceivingly deep rainstorm puddles. The Wrangler can easily traverse up to 33.5 inches of water, and the Grand Cherokee can conquer 24 inches of water.

Articulation describes how far up and down a vehicle's suspension will let the wheels move, allowing for optimal tire-to-ground contact. The best adventures usually take place on the roughest terrain, but good articulation doesn't just come in handy when off-roading. Areas with heavy construction or deep potholes require maximum suspension flexibility. Higher levels of articulation help your wheels remain stable and engaged when one or more tires are off the ground. Jeep offers legendary off-road capability thanks to advanced traction systems, Tru-Lok Electronic Locking Differential, and the Electronic Front Sway Bar Disconnect, all delivering superior articulation from your Jeep's suspension.
