The All-New 2021 Jeep Cherokee
Eagle River Chrysler Jeep Ram, the preferred Jeep dealership in Whitecourt, Alberta, is excited to present the 2021 Jeep Cherokee. We serve the surrounding areas of Swan Hills, Edson, and Barrhead. The Cherokee stands out as a four-door compact SUV that boasts such features as the Hands-Free Power Liftgate, classic seven-slot grille, and automatic LED headlamps. It is available in trims options such as the Sport, North, 80th Anniversary Edition, Altitude, Trailhawk®, Limited, Trailhawk® Elite, and High Altitude.
Interior Comfort
The Cherokee easily accommodates up to five people on spacious seats upholstered in cloth, premium cloth, or full leather. You can also drop down the rear seatbacks to increase cargo space to 1,634 litres. A multi-level rear cargo floor adjusts to accommodate taller items. The front seats are available with built-in heating, so you remain cozy on winter days. The leather-wrapped steering wheel, which has audio and cruise controls, also have built-in heating. Dual-Zone Automatic Temperature Control encourages you and your front passenger to set different temperatures.
Available Technology Features
The available Uconnect® 4C NAV multimedia centre accepts commands through the 8.4-inch colour touchscreen or the spoken word. Connections to your compatible smartphone using Apple CarPlay® or Android Auto™ allows for hands-free phone calls or text messaging. You can customize the 7-inch full-colour display centre behind the wheel to show real-time data such as fuel level, outside temperature, or tire pressure.
Revel in the music from the available Alpine® Premium Sound System that contains nine amplified speakers, including a subwoofer. Built-in navigation shows you turn-by-turn directions to your destination. Available SiriusXM satellite radio provides ad-free music stations, live sports, and celebrity talk.
Performance Features
You can pick from three engines for the Cherokee: the 2.4L Tigershark® MultiAir®, the 3.2L Pentastar™ V6, and the 2.0L Turbo. All come paired with the nine-speed automatic transmission for maximum engine performance. The V6 saves fuel with Engine Stop/Start technology that shuts off the motor at stops and restarts it when you're ready to move on. It can also tow up to 2,041 kg, thanks to 239 pound-feet of torque.
Your choice of two 4x4 systems boosts your confidence on any terrain. Jeep Active Drive I automatically engages four-wheel drive on rocky surfaces or when the weather turns bad. When you have to negotiate challenging trails, Jeep Active Drive Lock locks the rear wheels for more traction. These systems come with the Selec-Terrain® Traction Management System, which lets you define your drive with modes like Sport, Snow, Auto, Sand, Mud, and Rock.
When you start on a slope, Hill Start Assist can hold the brakes for a few seconds. You then have time to move your foot from the brake to the accelerator without the Jeep rolling downward. When Electronic Stability Control detects over-or under-steering, it can break the appropriate wheel to help you maintain control. All-Speed Traction Control prevents the wheels from slipping when you accelerate on slippery surfaces. Electronic Roll Mitigation also uses braking and can lessen engine power to prevent wheels from lifting.
Safety Features
Whether you're on the highway or trail, the Cherokee protects you with advanced driver assists such as the following:
- Forward Collision Warning tells you if you're getting too close to the vehicle in front of you and can engage Active Braking to prevent an accident. If you drift accidentally across the road without activating a turn signal, LaneSense® Lane Departure Warning Signals you and nudges the steering via Lane Keep Assist to set you on the right path. When you back into or out of a parking spot, the ParkView® Rear Back-Up Camera reveals live video of what's behind you.
- Park-Sense® Rear Park Assist tells you how close you're getting to an obstacle when you back into a parking spot. Let Parallel and Perpendicular Park Assist take care of steering you into an open spot for maximum convenience. All you have to do is follow the instructions to brake, accelerate, and shift gears. Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop and Go automatically adjusts your speed based on traffic flow to put you at a safe distance from the car in front. When necessary, it can entirely stop your SUV. When a vehicle enters your blind zone, the Blind-Spot Monitoring System informs you to make lane changes safer.
