Great car much improved over my 2016 Jeep Cherokee
I traded my 2016 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk in for this. As much as I liked the old one I really have noticed significant improvements with the new one. Transmission is much smoother and the engine seems to have more power even though it is the same size as the 2016 engine. The best improvement is the outside lighting. I can see so much better with the LED lights versus the halogen lights. Overall I really love this car.

Not Elite So far
We picked up our 2019 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk Elite on Wednesday, August 1st. Had to take it back to the dealer on August 3rd for intermittent airbag alerts and dash light illumination along with some other intermittent traction control light gremlins. Service department told us that the they'd probably not be able to provide a loaner/rental for a car that had about 120 miles on it but that it needed to stay with them in the name of safety as the airbags may not deploy if there were to be an accident. Needless to say, that did not go over well. They did end up providing us another Trailhawk Elite after some discussions. The issues had to be taken to the engineers at Chrysler for their "expertise" based on the codes that had been generated and stored. As of last night there is still no resolution with more info to come today. For their sake, I hope the news I get today is better and that I am not the one pulling the info from them as I had to do yesterday. I am stunned that this is from a dealership that I have personally bought four cars from now and referred one or two people that have bought cars there. It looks like maybe a new relationship with a different dealer may be in order if this does not get fixed promptly. We have another dealer that is way closer to my house than the current one. Looks like I may need to familiarize myself with the Ohio lemon law rules but lets hope it does not come to that.

Cherokee Trailhawk Elite
Bells and whistles, only thing it does not have is the 360 degrees camera system. It will parallel park itself, park itself, access cruise, lane departure, has 2.0l engine with turbo. Sunroof is huge, and the heated/vented seats are the best. A lot of city driving and some highway, 26.5 mpg. The 4wd, sand, sport and snow are great. The 4wd always on autoif it is required. Remote start and rear tailgate on fob. The blind spot monitoring is large and audible alarm is loud enough. Skid plates, tow hooks and Firestone destination at tires makes this an off road equipped vehicle. Highly recommend.

my midlife crisis vehicle!
i have had my trailhawk elite for 2 months and it has been great. taken it on road trips and the miles melt away. quiet, smooth, and fun. took it camping and proved to be an excellent vehicle for the job. it handled the off road just as advertised,making my mind dream of taking it into even more extreme conditions. for those wondering about traveling with more than one passengers, just got back from a festival that i took 4 adults plus myself driving over 2 hrs each way. everyone was impressed with the ride. i have encountered one hiccup so far that i feel is important to point out. while camping my wife shut the auto liftgate and failed to notice a small nylon strap from our bags was near the latch. it jammed the liftgate quite impressively requiring an emergency trip to a dealer as the interior lights would not turn off and would drain the battery if not running. seems like a problem that should be remedied given what the vehicle is intended to be used for. so rember to pack the back carefully. in all i am highly satisfied with my purchase which i refer to as my mid-life crisis vehicle. i am actually looking forward to the upcoming winter here in Buffalo and that is saying something!

Elite w/ new 2.0L Turbo Engine, NOT 3.2L!
Strange that Edmunds does not include the 2.0 engine option, which is new for 2019 and will be available also on Wrangler. I have leisurely been looking at replacement options for my 2002 Saab for several years and never found a vehicle that checked so many boxes as the reworked 2019 Cherokee. It excels in so many ways if you are interested in a vehicle of its type, size and capability. Decided to switch up to something more rugged and heavy than my beloved Saab so I can take long adventurous trips feeling more secure, given so many big vehicles on the roads these days. My only concern with SUVs in general are their rollover instability compared to good sedans, so driving defensively becomes more important. Never thought I would get another Chrysler product after having a Stratus and Caravan, but the new Cherokee is just so appealing, especially in upper trim levels. Given the new engine, and past experience, I did purchase a lifetime drive train and more warranty, just in case. So far, I am very pleased and hope to enjoy this fun, utilitarian (with full size spare) and well thought out ride for many years. My wife wants one of her own right away and she has a Lexus RX330 with no issues. Door armrest interferes a bit with left knee for me (6' tall), but not as much as many other vehicles I tried out. Wish seat was a bit wider too, but it is nonetheless plush and comfortable as is although I have yet to take this Elite on a long trip. Very good headroom and ergonomics, including well thought out and implemented technology. Will give it 5 stars if I'm equally pleased after a year or two.
