Jeep’s Cherokee line has historically been a favorite among car buyers. Whether it’s the power under the hood or the design and luxury you get in return for purchasing the vehicle, there’s something about the SUV that keeps people coming back for more. In 2019, Jeep has a new variant that’s been updated in all the right ways. If you’re curious to know what’s new with the 2019 Jeep Cherokee, here’s a rundown.
Updated Design
For the 2019 model year, Jeep decided to go with an updated design for the Cherokee. You’ll find a revised look for the headlights that make an even bigger statement than they did in the past. These headlights blend well with the updated hood and front clip, making for a handsome and sophisticated front fascia. You’ll also find redesigned LED taillights, five new wheel trims, an aluminum hood, and more. The overall design is also 200 pounds lighter than it was in the past, making the car more efficient and agile.
Even More Power, For Less
To help drivers get the most out of their new Cherokee without draining the bank, Jeep has introduced a new engine option for 2019 that slots between the carryover 2.4-liter I-4 and 3.2-liter V-6. The new 2.0-liter turbo-four engine packs 270 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque. It’s able to kick out up to 23 city miles per gallon and up to 31 highway miles per gallon. The best part? It won’t cost you an arm and a leg, giving you more power for less money at checkout.
Improved Cabin
As if the exterior design and performance improvements weren’t enough, Jeep has taken things a step further and upgraded the 2019 Cherokee’s interior. It includes a refined fit and finish with cleaner lines and an overall aesthetic that’s even classier and luxurious than before. Inside, you’ll find an available heated leather-wrapped steering wheel, chrome metal accents, upgraded seat selections, an available Uconnect 4C NAV with an 8.4-inch touchscreen, an available personalized instrument cluster, a dual-pane panoramic sunroof, and more. Plus, you get a bit of extra cargo room, which is always handy.
Advanced Safety
For the 2019 model year, Jeep includes improved safety features that make the car one of the safest to drive. Buyers will be happy to know it comes with high strength steel to further safeguard against accidents, eight standard advanced airbags, blind spot monitoring, lane departure warning, full-speed forward collision warning, rear cross path detection, a rearview backup camera, parking assist, automated parking, adaptive cruise control, keyless entry, remote vehicle start, automatic headlamps, tire fill notification, and more. With so many features available, you’ll certainly feel safer and more secure on the road thanks to better awareness while driving.
