Go anywhere' Jeep Cherokee Capability

Go anywhere' Jeep Cherokee Capability

Date: 2014-08-01
The new Jeep Cherokee takes the legendary Jeep 4x4 capability to the next level and offers the advantages of an all-weather, all-terrain vehicle. The new generation of the Jeep mid-size SUV provides a choice of two innovative 4x4 systems for best-in-class 4x4 capability in all driving conditions: the single-speed, fully automatic Jeep¨ Active Drive I and the Jeep Active Drive Lock including all features of the Jeep Active Drive II and adding a locking rear differential and Selec-Speed Control (on Trailhawk models only).

The new Jeep Cherokee is also the first mid-size SUV to feature rear-axle disconnect, resulting in reduced energy loss when 4x4 capability isn't needed and improving fuel efficiency. The rear-axle-disconnect seamlessly switches between two- and four-wheel drive for full-time torque management without requiring input from the driver.

Jeep Active Drive I is available on the Cherokee Limited 4x4 model and features a single power transfer unit (PTU), which is fully automatic and delivers seamless operation in and out of four-wheel drive at any speed. The system does not require any driver intervention or feedback and delivers yaw correction during dynamic events and improves both understeer and oversteer conditions. Jeep Active Drive I offers balanced torque distribution with brake traction control. The four-wheel-drive performance results from a fully variable wet clutch housed in the rear drive module. The clutch supplies the proper amount of torque for any driving condition, including slippery conditions, aggressive starts and dynamic driving. Sophisticated algorithms enable the system to contribute to the driving dynamics while interacting with the electronic stability control (ESC) system when approaching the traction limits of the road surface.

Get down to Jeep Umhlanga and take the new Jeep Cherokee for a test drive. Experience the world-renowned Jeep capabilities. Call them on 031 576 1500 for more details or pop into their showroom at 2 Canegate Road, Umhlanga Ridge
