Comparing the Jeep Wrangler versus the Jeep Cherokee in Bath, New York
Getting behind the wheel of the right SUV doesn't have to be a challenge, especially when you work with Simmons Rockwell. We have the full line of Jeep SUVs ready to go. The Jeep Cherokee is a classic in the Jeep lineup, and the Jeep Wrangler is known for its iconic off-road prowess. Learn more about the benefits of each below.
Performance
The Jeep Cherokee is a practical commuter SUV with a small body size and a reliable 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine under the hood making 180 horsepower and 171 pound-feet of torque. Alternatively, a turbocharged two-liter four-cylinder engine can produce 270 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque under the hood. The Jeep Wrangler is available with a more diverse spread of engine options ranging from a 3.6-liter V6 engine that makes 285 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque all the way to a plug-in hybrid powertrain called 4xe which can make 375 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque. If you're looking for a truly diverse vehicle that has full off-road equipment, the Jeep Wrangler is the way to go with trim levels like the Rubicon providing you with equipment like 33-inch all-terrain tires, low range gearing, locking differentials, and more.
Interior and Technology
The Jeep Wrangler has an impressive spread of tech, especially starting with the base model. Enjoy a 12.3-inch touchscreen linking up easily to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The Jeep Cherokee is more limited, with only an 8.4-inch touchscreen. Additional trim levels of the Jeep Wrangler include premium tech and comfort features like automatic climate control, heated front seats, and an Alpine premium audio system for immersive listening. The top-of-the-line High Altitude trim has full leather upholstery for luxury on or off the road. The Jeep Cherokee has only two trim levels, and the base model has everything you need. For more variety, consider choosing the Jeep Wrangler.
Off-Roading
The Jeep Wrangler is unparalleled in its off-road potential. Drivers can choose the Rubicon trim for a practical spread of off-road tools or go all the way with the Rubicon 392 trim. This blends the luxury amenities of the High Altitude trim with more off-road equipment like a V8 engine, high-performance brakes, a lifted suspension, shock absorbers, and more. The Jeep Cherokee has the Trailhawk trim, which offers a limited set of off-road features like all-terrain tires, underbody skid plates, and an off-road suspension system.
The Bottom Line
Jeep Cherokee has been discontinued, and the Jeep Wrangler continues to thrive. Go anywhere in the Jeep Wrangler and enjoy a great spread of up-to-date luxury amenities in the main cabin, so your driving in the Hornell area is a pleasure. If you're looking for something more buttoned down and pragmatic, the Jeep Cherokee might suit your needs in Penn Yan.
