Jeep Cherokee & Mopar®

The new Jeep Cherokee is a further expression of the intense and fruitful collaboration that links the Jeep brand to Mopar®, the reference brand for Services, Customer Care, Genuine Parts and Accessories for Fiat-Chrysler brands. There are more than 100 exclusive Mopar accessories dedicated to the new Jeep Cherokee that match it perfectly, while complying totally with its technical, aesthetic and mechanical characteristics. Moreover, Mopar products are unique because they are developed hand-in-hand with the same engineering teams who design the vehicle: this direct link is something that other aftermarket companies are not in a position to provide.

Standing out are the accessories linked to the innovative Cargo Management System, that makes the most of the cargo space in the new Jeep Cherokee. Mopar offers a range of modular accessories that fit perfectly with the universal module rack mounted on the left side of the rear cargo area, which permits the area in the rear compartment to be organised practically in accordance with the various requirements of the user and with the utmost safety.

Connectivity & Infotaiment

The new Jeep Cherokee features thoughtful, state-of-the-art, high-tech features and amenities that are intuitive, easy-to-use and provide utmost on-board comfort and infotainment.

The world-class thin-film transistor (TFT) 7-inch full-color reconfigurable instrument cluster allows the drivers to enjoy a customized user experience and receive information and vehicle feedback in the format they prefer, while keeping their hands on the wheel and eyes on the road.

Safety

Safety and security were at the forefront in the development of the new Jeep Cherokee. This allowed the new generation of the Jeep mid-size SUV to earn the prestigious Euro NCAP five-star rating last year with an overall score of 83/100. This major accolade confirms the Jeep brand's special attention in matters relating to the protection of passengers and road users and underlines that the new generation Cherokee immediately satisfies all international safety standards.

Recently, the new Jeep Cherokee also earned the 'best in class' designation from Euro NCAP in the Small Off-road 4X4 category for the year 2013. This recognition is given from Euro NCAP to the models tested during the year that have achieved the highest scores in their respective class. The best vehicle in the Small Off-road 4X4 class of 2013, recommended by Euro NCAP for its outstanding safety performance is the new generation of the Jeep mid-size Sport Utility Vehicle.

New on-road performance

The new Jeep Cherokee's premium on-road manners are a result of a number of efforts by Jeep engineers. The front independent suspension with MacPherson struts provides 17 cm of travel while the rear independent multi-link suspension provides up to 19.8 cm of travel for better articulation. The isolated rear cradle, aluminum front cross member and superior torsional rigidity deliver customers a quieter and smoother ride with improved handling characteristics.

Frame, Suspension and Steering

The Compact U.S. Wide (CUS-wide) platform is the basis for the underpinnings of the new Jeep Cherokee. This platform's proven modular architecture means many models can be built using the same basic underpinnings. The result is better quality and reliability as well as lower costs, less development time and tooling. The architecture Cherokee is built on is comprised of common, modular and interchangeable components and allows for modularity of the wheelbase, front track, rear track, front overhang, length and width across vehicle lines.

Engine range

In Europe, the new Jeep Cherokee is powered by the new, efficient 2.0-liter turbo, direct-injection I-4 common rail diesel engine fitted with Multijet II technology and paired to the all-new nine-speed automatic gearbox and the six-speed manual transmission. The new Jeep Cherokee is also available with two petrol engine options: the 3.2-liter V-6 Pentastar offered in the lineup sold in Europe and the 2.4-liter Tigershark MultiAir I-4 engine available only in the Cherokee lineup sold in Russia and the Middle East. Both petrol engines are paired to the new nine-speed automatic gearbox.

Powertrain

The new Jeep Cherokee is the first mid-size SUV to feature a standard nine-speed automatic transmission. The new gearbox is equipped on the 170 horsepower 2.0-liter turbo diesel engine and on the petrol models of the new Cherokee range.

New nine-speed automatic gearbox ensures exceptionally smooth shifts, an extremely wide gear ratio range for optimized acceleration, reduced emissions and improved fuel efficiency. The new transmission also delivers aggressive launches and smooth power delivery at highway speeds.

Jeep Active Drive Lock

Standard on all Trailhawk models, Jeep Active Drive Lock includes all the features of Jeep Active Drive II and adds a locking rear differential for superior low-speed power for rock crawling or severe off-road conditions. The locking rear differential is selectable in any low-range terrain mode, but will lock automatically when in certain modes such as "Rock," to maximize tractive effort, which the tire patch can support.

Jeep Active Drive I

Available on the Cherokee Longitude and Limited models, Jeep Active Drive I features a single power transfer unit (PTU) which is fully automatic and delivers seamless operation in and out of four-wheel drive at any speed. The system does not require any driver intervention or feedback, delivers yaw correction during dynamic events and improves both understeer and oversteer conditions. Jeep Active Drive I offers balanced torque distribution with brake traction control. The four-wheel-drive performance results from a fully variable wet clutch housed in the rear drive module. The clutch supplies the proper amount of torque for any driving condition, including slippery conditions, aggressive starts and dynamic driving. Sophisticated algorithms enable the system to contribute to the driving dynamics while interacting with the electronic stability control (ESC) system when approaching the traction limits of the road surface.

Jeep Active Drive II

Available on the Cherokee Limited model, Jeep Active Drive II includes a two-speed PTU with torque management and low range. 4-Low mode, locks the front and rear drive shafts for low speed power or towing. Low range provides a 2.92:1 gear reduction. The gear reduction allows for enhanced climbing ability as well as outstanding crawl ratios for severe off-road conditions. Jeep Active Drive II works in conjunction with the Selec-Terrain system to aggressively modify the torque distribution while monitoring the engine transmission and ESC system, and providing power to the wheels that will deliver the most traction.

All-new, premium interior

The Jeep brand's recent Grand Cherokee introduction set the foundation for a new direction in interiors that the new Cherokee builds upon. The interior is modern, welcoming and comfortable. It features a sophisticated, refined design, hand-sculpted forms, signature Jeep styling cues, high-quality materials, precision craftsmanship and attention to detail. The cabin is designed to offer the driver ultimate comfort with useful, easy-to-operate technology and clever storage.

Design

The new Jeep Cherokee boasts a cutting-edge, revolutionary design and features world-class craftsmanship and exclusive technological contents. Sleek and athletic exterior lines project the Jeep design into the future and convey efficiency and aerodynamics without compromising the brand's stylistic heritage.


Jeep designers were inspired to create a vehicle that remains true to the brand while moving it into the next era with a shape that is as efficient as the vehicle and ages gracefully without losing the DNA that makes it a Jeep. Fluid, sleek exterior lines highlight the efficient, wind-splitting upper body of the Cherokee. The rugged, protective lower body conveys the legendary capability that is characteristic of every Jeep.
