Jeep Cherokee Review, For Sale, Colours, Models, Specs & News

FROM
$54,010

Jeep's mid-sized five-door, five seat Cherokee is unashamedly unusual in the looks department, and it doesn't care one bit. The love-it-or-hate-it nose treatment hasn't stopped people flocking to the car.

Jeep sells the US-built Cherokee in Australia in six levels of trim, from an entry level 2.4-litre four-cylinder FWD Sport and more luxurious Limited, through to an off-road specific Trailhawk. As well as the 2.4-litre engine, Jeep sells the Cherokee with a 3.2-litre V6 petrol engine as well as a 2.0-litre diesel, which is restricted to the Limited model. Whether you get the base Cherokee S-Limited (awd) for $54,010, or spend $62,040 for the top-of-the-range Cherokee S-Limited (awd), all are offered with the same nine-speed automatic.

Jeep Cherokee FAQs

Would a Jeep Cherokee, Alfa Romeo Stelvio or Land Rover Discovery be a good first four-wheel-drive?

That’s quite a broad range of abilities you’ve listed there. Both the Jeep and the Land Rover are pretty serious off-roaders while, the Alfa Romeo Stelvio is an SUV that really has no pretenses to working on a bush track.

None of this trio would be cheap to service, and modern turbo-diesel engines really do need their maintenance to remain reliable. In terms of industry reputation, the Jeep has a background of electrical and build-quality problems, while the Land Rover and Alfa Romeo also have their share of quality glitches. Many owners put up with this stuff, but if you’re going to head seriously outback, there are probably better choices.

The other part of the equation is what happens when you wish to sell the vehicle in a few years. Frankly, all three of these cars will be a reasonable bet to suffer plenty of depreciation although, to be fair, a 2021 version of each will already have done some of that.

Why won't the cruise control engage in my 2014 Jeep Cherokee?

There’s clearly a problem with the car’s electronics. Take it to a dealer and have it diagnosed to establish the cause of the issue. It can then be fixed.
