Quick Spin: 2014 Jeep Cherokee - Fox News
The classic Jeep Cherokee name has been resurrected for 2014 in the form of a very modern vehicle. With a starting price of $23,900, the Cherokee is based on the front-wheel-drive chassis of the Dodge Dart, but beefed up here for Jeep duty. A 184 hp 2. 4-liter four-cylinder engine is standard, while a 271 hp V6 is also offered, both matched to Jeep’s first nine-speed automatic transmission. The four-cylinder is rated at 31 mpg highway with front-wheel-drive, while the V6 can tow up to 4,500 pounds. Top models get Chrysler’s ubiquitous 8. 4-inch touchscreen and voice-controlled Uconnect infotainment system and a 7-inch configurable display in the instrument cluster. Jeep says it was going for an expressive, bold look, and it definitely achieved that. This is especially true on the Trail Rated Trailhawk model, which gets a one-inch suspension lift, skid plates, unique wheels, bright. Source: www.foxnews.com
