The Grand Cherokee has a top speed of 126mph, which is quite normal for a car such as this.
For a car of this build it is quite fast at making speed as it can travel from 0mph to 62mph in a swift 8.2 seconds. The car has an average power output of 237bhp, but its torque is especially powerful at 405 lb-ft.
It delivers a refined ride and is an accomplished cruiser, with little road or wind noise entering the cabin. The model absorbs bumps and road imperfections with relative ease, however as an off-roader there are far more accomplished vehicles such as the Wrangler.
The Grand Cherokee is a stylish and sophisticated 4x4. Its exterior is blessed with sleek lines and curves, whilst being enhanced further with alloy wheels. Metallic paint is available as a cost extra for £670.
The interior is equally as attractive, with leather seating fitted and high quality materials used throughout.
In terms of technology, the Grand Cherokee comes as standard with satellite navigation, rear parking sensors, MP3 connectivity, Bluetooth, climate control, electric front windows and electric door mirrors.
In terms of practicality this car is ideal for families as it seats five occupants comfortably and has five-door access, which is far more convenient for all occupants in the car. Four-wheel drives often have plenty of space and this is no exception. When the rear seats are upright there is 782 litres of storage space, and when the rear seats are folded there is a more generous 1554 litres of luggage area.
The Cherokee's security has been well constructed. It is fitted with central locking and an alarm to protect from theft.
The model's warranty is for up to three years of ownership or up to 60,000 miles.
The Jeep Grand Cherokee 3.0 CRD V6 Overland 5dr can be bought for £43,995. Four-wheel drives often are expensive but this large choice provides generous boot space plus a range of great technological, safety and security features.
This car’s CO2 emissions are particularly impactful, which is common with four-wheel drives and this model pollutes 218g/km of emissions. Fuel economy is also poor and insurance premiums won't be cheap either. Overall value for money is not great, but considering the style and class of the vehicle and its impressive range of equipment, buyers could do a lot worse for their money.
