Jeep® Cherokee Capability

Choose your own adventure.
Whether it's dropping the kids at school or venturing off the beaten path, the Jeep® Cherokee has you covered.

4X4 Trail Rated® Tough

The Jeep® Cherokee Trailhawk® SUV proudly wears the Trail Rated® badge - signifying its ability to perform well under various off-road conditions. It carries on the Jeep Brand tradition of having legendary traction, ground clearance, maneuverability, articulation and water fording abilities.

Maintain Contact

Maintain Contact

For off-roading, traction is key. You want every wheel working to drive the vehicle forward. Cherokee Trailhawk offers a Jeep® Active Drive Lock 4x4 system that helps to ensure the right tyre has traction when it’s needed.

High and Dry

Don’t let a little water get in your way. Your Trail Rated® Jeep® Cherokee features additional electrical and body sealing along with a high air intake to help you to navigate streams and flooded underpasses that stop others cold. 

Tight Turning

Jeep® Cherokee Trailhawk® gives you the maneuverability to choose to steer around or crawl over obstacles like rocks or logs.

Maximum Flexibility

Maximum Flexibility

Good articulation allows the wheels to travel or flex. The better they flex, the better they can maintain contact with terrain to provide traction. Take a look under the Cherokee and you’ll find a unibody construction with independent suspension at all four corners.

Up and Over

Good ground clearance helps you pass over obstacles like rocks or logs. It’s measured at three points: approach angle, breakover angle and departure angle.

Four Wheel Drive

Five efficient Modes: Auto, Sport, Snow, Sand/Mud and available Rock, are engineered to deliver the ultimate driving stability by coordinating 12 vehicle systems.

Powerfully Efficient

The Cherokee offers a choice of two engines - the 2.4L Tigershark® MultiAir® 2 engine, and the available 3.2L Pentastar® V6 engine.

2.4L Tigershark® Multiair® 2 Engine

2.4L Tigershark® Multiair® 2 Engine

This 16-valve engine features advanced technologies including dual variable valve timing, a flow-control valve intake manifold and Engine Stop/Start Technology. It’s all about efficiency. Mated to the nine-speed automatic transmission, it can get up to 7.0 L/100km (Highway). 

3.2L Pentastar® V6 Engine

3.2L Pentastar® V6 Engine

The V6 engine consumes up to 8.1 L/100km (Highway).

On-Road Performance and Suspension

Front and rear independent suspensions provide outstanding on-road driving dynamics and a fun-to-drive experience. The Cherokee body structure is made of high-strength steel which provides excellent torsional stiffness for a strong, lightweight vehicle architecture. It all adds up to superb handling and a quieter cabin.

On-Road Performance and Suspension

Off-Road Ready with Trailhawk®

The Jeep® Cherokee Trailhawk® was engineered and equipped for limitless exploring and discovery. Powerful capability, Trail Rated® stamina and off-road-ready features make any adventure in the Trailhawk possible.

Tow Hooks

Tow Hooks

Tow hooks are an essential off-road accessory for helping out other less-capable vehicles. Trailhawk® is equipped with two standard tow hooks in the front, designed to recover your travel companions on the trail.

Ground Clearance

Ground Clearance

A standard 1-inch suspension lift gives you room to crawl over large rocks, logs and more. Standard skid plates provide protection for the underside of the vehicle so you can focus on intimidating obstacles and minimising underbody damage.
