The V6 are good, at least.
Joe H, 1/5/2018
I bought a 2018 Cherokee latitude. It's a mixture of great and disappointing. The look, interior, and base model features are above average. It looks good, the inside is spacious and comfortable, the Bluetooth connectivity and backup cam are nice semi-modern touches, and it's nice to sit it. Unfortunately, the engine is not great. The 2.4L V4 is sluggish, under powered, and frustrating. It's fine for basic commutes where you never go over 45mph. However, the car has no pep, no get-up-and-go, and at higher speeds, you really have to push it to pass slower cars on the freeway. I wouldn't recommend the V4 Jeep Cherokee models to anybody. Go V6 or leave the dealership. The V4s aren't Jeeps, they just look like them. Everything else in the car is nice, though.
My Brownstone Beauty
NancyMcKinney, 5/14/2018
For a MRSP of over $43,000, the car should include a CD player. I didn't notice it did not have one until taking it home. Also, never buy the extended warrantee at the time of purchase, as a better offer will come from Chrysler/Mopar shortly. In fact, I have had multiple better offers than the one I purchased from the dealer. I sometimes feel what I describe as a slip in the transmission when backing out and then going forward. The dealer checked it out and could find no problem. Please read the extended service contract. You must have the required maintenance done at the proper dealer for warrantee to stand. Other than that, I love the luxury feel and safety features of the 2018 Jeep Cherokee Overland. I'm looking forward to driving my first SUV for many years.
New Lat Plus- great so far
‘18Jeeper, 1/2/2018
If you need the V6, you’re apparently off-road a lot in terrain or are a much more aggressive driver than I am commuting. I do 75-80 on the way to work (30 mi) and am averaging 27 mpg (80% hwy) with the 2.4 engine. RPMs sit right at 2,000 cruising, lower than the Escape and Sportage. If you need a comfortable, affordable vehicle, consider the 2.4 model and drive others to compare. 184 HP is plenty unless you want to tow >2,000 lbs or do 90 all the time. Also, trans is so smooth compared to ‘14-15 complaints. Love the 8.4 UConnect. Hope I get an easy 100k out of this Jeep as it’s far too early to assess reliability. So far though, my favorite vehicle of 7 I’ve owned since 2000 and the only truck, car, or SUV I’ve reviewed. $5,000+ in rebates made it an absolute no brained.
GOOD JEEP
Mike S., 2/19/2018
The car is very driver friendly. The cruise control is very responsive. If the passenger seat was identical to the driver's seat, the Jeep would have been great. After two long trips to Florida, we experienced a comfortable ride. Highway mileage is great but city mileage is only fair.

2018 Jeep Cherokee video

[MUSIC PLAYING] BRYN MACKINNON: I'm Edmunds editor Bryn MacKinnon, and this is a rundown of the features you'll find in the 2018 Jeep Cherokee. With its comfortable ride and modern tech, the Cherokee can be a capable off-roader or a daily driver. Go with the Trailhawk if your budget allows. Its exclusive features make the most of the Cherokee's off-road abilities, and that's the main reason to buy a Cherokee instead of another crossover. If you don't plan on off-roading, the Limited has largely the same standard convenience items, plus creature comforts, too, like a heated steering wheel, dual zone automatic climate control, and an auto-dimming rearview mirror. V6 Cherokees with the right package can tow 4,500 pounds, the most in the small crossover class. Models equipped with the two-speed transfer case can be flat towed behind a motor home. Rear cargo space is adequate, but not class-leading. But at least there's a full-size spare tire under the floor. The rear seats fold flat, too, making it easier to load. Reclining rear seats and plentiful head and leg room means you shouldn't hear complaints from rear passengers. Jeep's Uconnect entertainment system is one of the more intuitive systems out there, and its large graphics are easy to read. Unfortunately, it doesn't have Android Auto or Apple CarPlay. A technology package available on select trims adds advanced safety features, like frontal collision mitigation, adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, and automatic parallel and perpendicular parking. It's easy to find a comfortable driving position, and the front seats provide all-day comfort and support. The Jeep Cherokee's top competitors include Honda CRV, Toyota RAV4, and Mazda CX-5. Bottom line, while we'd like more cargo space and a bit more oomph from the base engine, the Cherokee remains an affordable SUV that can comfortably get you to work during the week and then hit the trail on the weekend.

2018 Jeep Cherokee Features Rundown

From mpg, interior space and technology to design and comfort - these pros and cons will help steer you toward a perfect car.

Jeep Cherokee vs. the competition

Jeep Cherokee vs. Jeep Compass

Smaller and more affordable than the Cherokee, the Compass will hit the sweet spot for some buyers. It's comfortable to drive, and it offers good rear legroom and a respectable 60 cubic feet of maximum cargo space. A Trailhawk version is also available for more enthusiastic off-roaders. The Cherokee, however, does offer an optional V6 engine, making it the better choice if you plan to do any towing.

Compare Jeep Cherokee & Jeep Compass features

Jeep Cherokee vs. Jeep Grand Cherokee

The Grand Cherokee is Jeep's larger and more capable SUV. Whether it's going off-road or towing something heavy, the Grand Cherokee is going to be better at it. Ultimately, though, you have to ask yourself: Is it worth paying more for? The Grand Cherokee is considerably more expensive. Maybe a Cherokee is all you need.

Compare Jeep Cherokee & Jeep Grand Cherokee features

Jeep Cherokee vs. Ford Escape

With its nimble handling and an available turbocharged engine, the Escape is one of the more exciting compact SUVs to drive. A large cargo space and an excellent tech interface are other advantages. But the Escape can't match the Cherokee's off-road prowess, especially in the exceptionally sure-footed Trailhawk version.
