  Jeep Commander SUV Overview - Edmunds.com
Although not quite as capable off-road as the smaller Jeeps, among SUVs in its size class the Commander is a superb trail-buster, able to tackle rock-strewn paths and steep mountain tracks without breaking a sweat.
Less thrilling, however, are the Jeep Commander's lackluster interior materials, cramped third row, so-so cargo capacity, poor fuel mileage with the larger engines and a state of suspension tune that some buyers might find to be overly soft on the highway.
The base Jeep Commander Sport gets its pep from a standard 3.7-liter V6 capable of 210 horsepower and 235 pound-feet of torque; while this engine is a decent source of motivation in smaller Jeeps, it's barely adequate in the 4,800-pound Commander.

Jeep's new Commander sport utility vehicle will mark an interesting stretch in the tug-of-war between Americans' love of big SUVs and their increasing desire for better gas mileage — a desire that will grow in the wake of Katrina's devastation of American refining capacity.

 Jeep Commander 3.0 CRD Limited - test report - JeepForum.com
Jeep's marketing department will be emphasising the differences more than the similarities, of course, and will be portraying the Commander as a down-and-dirty workhorse, at least in comparison with the more lifestyle-oriented Grand Cherokee.
The Commander has not had to be made much longer than the Grand in order to accomodate the extra seats - there's just 37mm difference, all of it behind the rear wheels - but that's enough to make the Commander fractionally less wieldy over the rough stuff.
On paper, the Commander has a slight advantage; the two cars have identical departure angles of 27 degrees, but the Commander's 34.6 degree approach and 21.2 degree breakover angles are slightly better, and rear axle ground clearance is superior by a more significant 38mm.

 2006 Jeep Commander SUV Review, Specs, Engine & Road Test - Motor Trend
Jeep's Rubicon-ready standard for off-roading has kept it out of the lucrative big sport/utility market for years, with no three-row-seating models to capture families trying to escape from minivans.
Now Jeep has taken the Grand Cherokee's platform, squared up the sheetmetal and added two inches in overall length and four inches in height without stretching its 109.5-inch wheelbase, resulting in seating for seven and better cargo capacity without resorting to Expedition/Suburban-size heft and fuel economy.
The new Commander is available with the 5.7-liter Hemi V-8 with Multiple Displacement System cylinder shutoff, 4.7-liter SOHC V-8 and 3.7-liter V-6.
