Jeep is always looking for a way to provide a grand experience to its customers. Jeep plans to introduce new models with left and right hand drive. The Jeep Grand Cherokee was one of the best SUVs that performed better in the mid size SUV category in the early 90s. It performed well on all types of road conditions. Since that time Chrysler has kept in mind the customers requirements in the model. At the start, Chrysler launched a bigger and better version of the Jeep s smaller but still popular Cherokee. Overall, the Grand Jeep Cherokee gives you a smoother drive and better on road handling. The Cherokee gives an unforgettable trial driving experience for test drivers.
The story of the Jeep Grand Cherokee began in 83, as engineers for American Motors (AMC) set about designing a successor to the existing smaller vehicle that was the Jeep Cherokee (XJ). The AMC commissioned three designers Larry Shinoda, Adam Clenet and Giorgetto Giugaro to create a clay template of the model to replace it (this would be referred to as the XJC project). The Jeep Concept 1 of 89 would foretell the basic design. It was the first jeep vehicle from Chrysler, and it first came to the attention of the public at the 92 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, Michigan.
Since this is a vehicle made by human beings it had some problems, like the 2005 model. The problems were door glass sticking, moaning, poor tracking, and acute radio signals. But the entire problem was resolved soon after launch. The Cherokee paved the way for later models. Jeep was experimenting and developing a brand new car which would change the face of the industry. The Cherokee provided this opportunity. Later models like the Jeep Commander were much more stable and reliable.
The engine choices range from mild to wild, with the HEMI engine topping the charts at 320 Horsepower. It only costs a couple of miles per gallon over the 3. 7 liter V6 and 4. 7 liter V8 engines, but has better responses. In 2007, the Cherokee 2007 came with a diesel engine option for customers, giving it quite a new level of speed, and improved mileage. The active suspension and fast acting automatic four wheel drive is very helpful in negotiating hemi spherical corners, where a lot of experience is needed. The Cherokee performed well on this front. Hemispheric corners cause considerable skidding and swing out tails. Even without electronic doodads, the Grand Cherokee negotiated corners very well.
The Grand Jeep Cherokee offers clear visibility in all directions. Equipped with satellite capabilities, the 2007 model has powerful headlights, the driver has the option to activate manual or automatic mode. The Cherokee has good mirrors as well. The instruments are well calibrated and easy to read. They are also visible at night.
Grand Jeep Cherokee was built in 83. It s a luxury car, which has been upgraded gradually as per the customer requirements. However the Jeep standard Jeep features are available as well.
The 2009 Jeep Grand Cherokee came on the scene with more powerful features. Safety features were added. Fuel efficiency, engine capacity and rear wheel drives were also improved. Customers have an option of installing navigation, and satellite television.
Jeep plans to release an advanced Grand Jeep Cherokee in 2011. The Cherokee has been superseded by the Jeep Commander. If the future model is to be anything classic, it should be better than the Commander. Jeep is happy with its current model. Already; new features have been added to the current model. The new model will come in many colours and features. The price is also reasonable. The price ranges from $30, 500. 00 to $45, 000. 00 and production will start in January, 2010. So, keep an eye if you are a Jeep fan
