Comfort
The Jeep Grand Cherokee offers rear passengers about the same room to stretch out as the Volkswagen Taos, with comparable head- and legroom.
As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between front seat comfort in the Jeep Grand Cherokee and the Volkswagen Taos.
Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Jeep Grand Cherokee will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Volkswagen Taos, which has a much lower MSRP.
Dimensions
Since the Jeep Grand Cherokee is much wider than the Volkswagen Taos, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging.
If you go with the Jeep Grand Cherokee, you may be circling the block looking for a space large enough to park more often than with the Volkswagen Taos.
Handling
The Jeep Grand Cherokee has the same turning radius as the Volkswagen Taos, so they both maneuver the same in and out of tight spots.
Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Jeep Grand Cherokee greatly out-muscles the Volkswagen Taos.
Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the Jeep Grand Cherokee does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Volkswagen Taos.
Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Jeep Grand Cherokee and the Volkswagen Taos.
The Jeep Grand Cherokee has a roomier cargo area for putting your bags or other items than the Volkswagen Taos.
