[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.
