Great vehicle. We have a 19 Cherokee Limited V6, and a 19 Wrangler Sahara V6. Both are high quality, well built, great driving Jeeps. They are not made by FiAT. FIAT is a parent company Association. The Renegade does use Fiat components. That one I would avoid. Ive owned EVERYTHING. Vetts, F-150's. Range Rovers, Honda Ridgeline. 42 new vehicles in total, and I love these new Jeeps. My kia Sorento 2016 died on I95. Fuel injector stuck open, almost died!. Talk all you want, Jeep is as good as any or better.

Umm, its on a Maserati platform developed by Fiat that was shared with the Dart and Chrysler 200. That makes this car a Fiat Chassis vehicle because its their design, not Chrysler's. The Renegade is literally built in Italy and shipped overseas to sell here, it also shared its Chassis with a Fiat panda.
Try again.

ggolds5 Glad you are happy with this. I’m thinking about one of these. Was going to get a Toyota 4 runner but it seems so outdated.

2019 Rav4 stole it's look from this vehicle.

Doubt it will hold up like the old 4.0 V6 of days past

What a POS, the Model T was the last real car. Everything that came after is complete trash.

The boxy Cherokee xj will always be the real Cherokee.

At least it looks sharp.... wait.. this is a jeep...what?

It's a FCA product.  Nuff said.....

Trailhawk is one of the most capable vehicles out there. I am really impressed with mine. Great deal on a lease too.

This car looks the BEAST.

My 1999 Jeep Cherokee Xj has 330,000 miles and is just like new..4.0 AW4 BEAST!!!!! RUN FOREVER.

Better front end tho previous one looked like it had 2 sets of fog lights

Hunk of junk, the worst in reliability of any SUV

Incorrect. Do your research. Even Consumer Reports gives it an average to slightly above for the redo, and the 9sp. shifts perfectly now.

What a POS, get a UAZ Hunter.

Yes, way better and more reliable than a pos yankee machine with those electronics and thin metals.......

Seriously? Russian shit?

Looks good

Jeep died when the XJ was put out to pasture. Whats left is Jeep in name only.

KRN762 ever heard of wrangler?

Or grand Cherokee

What about the wrangler and grand cherokee

Needs premium fuel, no thanks

Recommended for best performance and economy, but runs well on 87 octane as well.

I’ve had 3 mopar vehicles in last 5 years- two Jeep GC ....never had a any problems btw didn’t BMW just recall 500k cars in Europe - drove the turbo 4 it’s great powerful
Motor for the weight of that Jeep

Gorilla Toyz u mean the those expensive european cars with subpar reliability?

Norm T good to know... thx!

Gorilla Toyz Jeep is like playing duck, duck goose. My bro inlaw just had his Wrangler 2.0T bought back with transmission issues.

I prefer the non-FCA Cherokees over the current one.

Does the Cherokee has vibrant, colorful programmable LED interior ambient lighting as a standard feature or an option?

Is anybody else sick of this cute yute craze by car makers?

They've been at it since the 1990's. No one would quit whining about "old dinosaur" cars and this is what we got.


"Funky and Hip"

No matter how much money FCA pours into the modern Cherokee, it will never be able to follow in the footsteps of the legendary XJ Cherokee.

Justin did jeep pay you some good boy bucks for that comment? The new Cherokee is atrocious, with a glass transmission, a shite engine, and girly styling, nothing will beat the legendary XJ unless they started making the XJ again.

Ian V. Raybeck The new Cherokee is better in most measurable ways.

Car is a POS but this is how it should have looked, the 3 tier light set up was fugly

does FCA build anything other than junk?

Noseefood the only vehicle they have that’s decent is the Wrangler. Everything else is mediocre to crap.

It's a 9 speed trans and if you don't like the auto mode there is a sport mode and an auto stick. In sport you can red line the RPMs. The V6 does 0-60 in 6.6 seconds.

+James Phieffer just ignore he's clearly a typical idiot who knows nothing about cars except that he heard chrysler was shit back in the days of the 2.7L and can't let it go.

Chrysler's quality has improved ten fold since Fiat took over. Yeah, it's still laughably abysmal, but it was much worse ten years ago, especially when the economy tanked and they were circling the drain. Look at any Jeep, Dodge, or Chrysler vehicle from those years and you can tell they were pinching pennies and cutting corners at every turn to churn out as cheap of a vehicle as possible. Man, they were awful.

The Wrangler is a perfect example. The JK was embarrassing when it debuted with its incredibly bad interior material quality, parts-bin engine and transmission, and plethora of design flaws. Fiat was the one who actually took a step back and publicly admitted how bad it was, forcing a much welcomed interior refresh in 2011 and a worthy, albeit already dated, powertrain in 2012. The JK finally got the attention and love it deserved towards the end of its generation, but unfortunately it came way too late.

FCA still has a lot of work to do in the QC department, sure, but they're phenomenally better than they used to be and they're starting to show pride in their Dodge and Jeep brands. Say what you will about how goofy the Cherokee is, regardless of the front fascia redesign, but for a vehicle that has absolutely no articulation and will never hold a candle to the XJ, the Trailhawk truly is an impressive off-roader.

I don't believe FCA even has a 10-speed. They've got 9s in the front wheel drive platforms, and 8s in the rwd ones.

At least it's better looking up front.

Meh.. I will pass on this one.. built on the Fiat small platform that the dodge dart used and we all know those were not well regarded...

Still ugly, the proportions are terrible.

Premium fuel? Not digging that, at all.

you dont need premium fuel for the turbo

Joseph1NJ And if you’re on the fence, you can fill it with mid-grade gas. In fact, FCA’s HEMI V-8’s recommend mid-grade, and the 3.2L V-6 for the Cherokee recommends mid grade.

Joseph1NJ You can apply regular grade fuel but the horsepower ratings will drop a little.

My mom's 2017 Ford Edge Titanium 2.0 EcoBoost gets 245 horsepower although she uses regular grade fuel which doesn't affect performance. She gets up to 29 mpg.

Billy Sou Gotcha, thx, good to know.

jeepthing98 Ah OK, didn't know that.

got the same color and 2.0 turbo ,only took 600 miles for its first check engine light to appear

My 1999 Jeep Cherokee Xj has 330,000 miles and is just like new... All these new cars are junk...

Was the gas cap loose?

Can't say I'm surprised...

I love these reviews!

isis

This car is too complicated to repaire , its has advanced powertrain and suspension system that no one will ever use but will pay for it for sure

TheJ602 apparently you know nothing about that wonderful 9-speed automatic that was known to fail. Now add to that a 2 liter turbo that can possibly also be a maintenance/reliability nightmare, and you just have a handful of a vehicle I would personally steer clear of.

seif salman no it doesn't.
