Jeep has pushed the new 2012 Cherokee out with an improved fuel economy which is what many SUV owners love to see in their bigger vehicles. The new Cherokee has now been made roomier and well-trimmed compared to last year's Cherokee. It has also been given a powerful V6 engine with better performance, and is proving to be a top contender among many of its rival SUVs. Jeep designed the 2012 Grand Cherokee with thoughts of better performance, greater overall refinement and high cabin quality. With these thoughts in mind, they succeeded in having all of these attributes in the final construction. They were also able to give this SUV a better fuel economy for 2012 as well. Even with Jeep updating the style, comfort and performance on the Cherokee, they didn't leave out the most important aspect of an SUV, the off-roading capabilities. The new 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee still upholds Jeep's reputation for mastering of the off-road.

The Cherokee's fuel economy averages around 16 miles per gallon in the city and 23 miles per gallon on the highway. The 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee comes with an attractive cabin that is home to a neatly styled dash, regular textures throughout, taut seams, and high quality materials. In the front of the cabin, you will find very comfortable and supportive seats. The back seats contain lots of cushioning for maximum comfort with the rear cabin providing lots of leg room. For those that crave maximum cargo space, the rear seats fold flat providing you an astounding 69 cubic feet of space. While driving, the 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee provides a comfortable ride with cornering stability due to its updated suspension. When taken off the road, the Jeep has a good amount of ground clearance with great climbing power. Most people will find that there is most definitely enough power behind the Cherokee's V6 engine to satisfy their off-roading needs.
