Thinking of buying a used Jeep Cherokee?
The style of the car
The Jeep Cherokee is a large four-door SUV. Despite the brand’s rich off-roader history, it's a very modern stylish car that's as happy in town as it is off the beaten track.
How it drives
A plush ride and supportive seats make the Jeep Cherokee an extremely comfortable car to drive. Most models are automatic which makes them easy to drive. Parking is helped by the excellent visibility of the road and by sensors being standard on almost all models. Four-wheel drive and strong engines make it a great choice for towing.
The interior
The five-seat Jeep Cherokee is a big car and features a spacious interior with enough room for five adults. The boot is one of the biggest in the class with enough room for several large suitcases and a big pram. The rear bench of seats also slides backward and forward, allowing either more space for passengers or luggage.
All models are well equipped, with a large touchscreen infotainment screen. Overland models add soft Nappa leather trim.
Running costs and reliability
Jeep has a reputation for great value for money and the Cherokee is no exception. Efficient diesel engines mean it costs no more to fuel and tax as the competition, while servicing and insurance costs are competitive. Jeep’s are traditionally tough and dependable, while a four-star Euro NCAP safety score adds further peace of mind.
How it compares with similar cars
The Cherokee is larger than the compact Renegade model in the Jeep line-up. It looks far more imposing than its rivals, despite being no larger than a Volkswagen Tiguan on the outside. The Jeep’s real strength is its strong off-road performance, which has earned it numerous awards.
