This is going to be one of the most important dates in Chrysler’s history; this prince of a car will be the basis on how Jeep rebuilds itself worldwide.  So you KNOW it’s going to be amazing.

Come on!  0-60 in less then 5 seconds?  That is faster then the Porsche Cayenne Turbo!

Asthetics

This Jeep isn’t going to look like the 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee or earlier models that we currently have on any of our lots.

The design of the all-new Jeep Grand Cherokee boasts an all-new sculpted body and athletic profile that define a sleek exterior and aerodynamic finesse. CommandView® — a new dual-pane panoramic sun roof – extends from the windshield to the rear of the vehicle. A world-class interior design is highlighted by premium soft-touch interior materials for all models. The interior provides consumers with more than four inches of increased rear-seat knee and leg room, and 17 percent more cargo volume.

Engine

If you want to take this all-new Jeep Cherokee from Seattle to Portland and back to Seattle again and don’t want to stop for gas, you’re going to be able to do so in this wonder rig. The tanks holds over 500 miles of gasoline and boasts an 11 % improvement in fuel economy, holding steady at 23MPG.  This will run on a brand-new 290-horsepower 3.6-liter V-6 engine.

Safety

More than 45 safety and security features are available in the all-new 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee, including standard Active Head Restraints, full-length side-curtain and seat-mounted side thorax air bags, Electronic Stability Control, Electronic Roll Mitigation, Hill-start Assist, and Trailer-sway Control. A Blind-spot/Rear Cross-path detection system and Adaptive Cruise Control with Forward Collision Warning are available.
