    1:50 EDITORS are not doing their jobs to correct Andre's mispeakings with correction overlay asterisk text. This is a 2.0L Inline Four and he says "it is a 2.0L Straight Six" which is not a thing. Yes I do wish Jeep would make a new 3.0L Inline Six Twin Turbo Hurricane into a Hybrid, but Jeep has already said they are not doing that.
    Also he says at 1:02, "This one is very special because it is all electric." No it's a hybrid (gas/electric) but he was driving in electric mode, but the Jeep 4XE is not all electric.

    This has far better chops off-road than the mall crawlers currently in Land Rover's lineup, except maybe the unicorn 4-cylinder Discovery that didn't last 2 months of TFL ownership. The secret sauce: rims small enough they can mount off-road tires with actual measurable amounts of sidewall, so it actually works off-road. There's nothing else that can do as many things as well as the Grand Cherokee, and the price is commensurate with that capability.
    That said, I'm OK with my decision last year to pick up a '18 GC with 30,000 on the clock, just as the used car market started to go nuts. The WL is better for sure, but not double-the-price better.

      I just had the pleasure of drving one of these home DEC 15 2023 so almost a week ago. I haven't charged it once I have about 75 miles left until I have to re-fuel. Haven't checked my official fuel MPG but I wasn't expecting great fuel economy. And I also knew prior to leasing the vehicle that I would likely never charge it (I live in a condo with shared parking). But it's nice knowing that I CAN charge it and that whenever/whereever I charge (no matter how far or near an accessible charging point) it's like a 25-mile "bonus." As you pointed out: you can "save" (i.e. delay) the electric miles and employ them at the time of your choosing. But if you're looking for optimal fuel economy the best advice I can offer is to charge it daily especially if your round-trip commute is 25 miles or less. But otherwise I expect between 21-26 MPG which I think is AWESOME for a 375 HP 470 lb.-ft. torque engine. It is very fast and I am loving the looks of surprise that I get from people in traffic when I open it up and they see that this vehicle may LOOK like a normal SUV but it seems to be packing something special under the hood!! 😂😂🙏🙏🚜🚜

    We have a 2021 WK2, and find that it does everything we ask it to, but it it IS wide enough to have its sides scraped on the Sierra Mtn roads we go on, which really makes for touchy off roading. Smooth ride on road and enough off road chops for us. After all, they are a compromise 4wd. We got the Overland with the so called Trailhawk off road package. We have the Gobi roof rack and the Chief rock rails. With the Gobi elevation cross bars we can get both kayaks in place with no problem.

I keep a MK patty riot for small trails, and use my GC trail hawk for mudding . Cherokee kl and renegade are also good for small tight trails that would tear up the sides of your GC✌🦆

    Talk about taking a huge discount. I purchased a 2013 GC summit loaded, using my friends and family discount. Took off 9500 of the price costing 42k out the door. Just wait… I leased it for three years knowing I was going to buy it. After three years, it’s now a used vehicle and I had the depreciation off the used price on top of that as I was still the original owner. Total paid was 33k for 56k GC. Lol.

    he ends up getting 23.2 mpg overall on that short 98 mile trip, well I have a 2018 grand Cherokee with the 5.7 liter Hemi and on the highway on a long trip at 70 to 75 mph I get between 20 to 22 mpg I live in the hills of eastern Kentucky so we have a lot of ups and downs but if I'm on flat roads it's closer to 22. Now stop and go in the city or something is another story if you run it hard it can drink the gas but there still isn't any substitution for a V8

    I love the idea of an electric GC, and a plug in hybrid is a nice compromise, but 25 miles of electric range at that price is like they weren't even trying. There's plenty of space for a larger battery, and the tech is available to make it happen.

    • @coblaze1

    • @mgiraudjr

      So the European versions typically get higher ranges with the same battery because batteries are required to have a 10 year warranty in USA, versus 5 year warranty in EU. So it's about the amount of buffer that is required to maintain 25mi for about 8 years.

  • @robsolf
    @robsolf Год назад

    If the electric motor doesn't have the power to maintain a consistent speed, or you're constantly stomping the pedal down, it will cancel all electric mode and put you in hybrid, automatically. It happens to me in my Wrangler 4xe at highway speeds with lots of hills or headwind.

I personally will stick to my wait few years and go with depreciated new/used or take the plunge into new but after some bugs have been worked out.

New platform, more refined, but practically, there's not a lot of difference in features. And the drivetrain is carry-over! Add the V8 and lux group and you're up to $60K for TH.
    Plus, in '18 they didn't charge for paint ($400 now), and destination charge was $1100, now an outrageous $1800!

    By the way, wanted the Trailhawk for the better 4x4 system but didn’t like how rigid it rode at full height. The limited with no air suspension allowed me to do the lift and run the 285’s. Upgraded shock package made it ride like a dream and all for a lot less than $62k. The Quad trac II wasn’t as good as the Trailhawk but I really don’t rock crawl, just Florida/Alabama hunting clubs.

    • @backwoodstherapy
      @backwoodstherapy 2 года назад +1

      Real world mpg will vary wildly, because it all depends on how far you live from work. If you live 15 miles from work, you'll only have to go about 5 miles on gas, the other 25 will be all electric. So even at 20 mpg, you'll only burn 1.25 gallons a week on your commute. But if you live 30 miles from work, now you're burning 2.5 gallons a DAY. So the usability of the electric function goes away down.

This Grand Cherokee is way more aerodynamic than my Wrangler, and the engine is new whereas the pentastar has been around for well over a decade.

    One interesting note - GrandCherokee always was with TrackHawk system, but this one with TrailHawk like on regular Cherokee. Is it some differences between those systems or it only about marketing? I always think that TrackHawk differ from TrailHawk only by air suspension, is something changed and we could probably see air on next Cherokee generation?)

    • @hoagieman26
      @hoagieman26 2 года назад +1

      For 2005-2021,
      TrackHawk and base models without offroad package have 1 speed Transfer Case, a system called Quadra-Trac. ALL Grand Cherokee systems use brakes to aid in traction. No air suspension.
      Base models and higher with the Offroad Adventure 1 package get steel skid plates, tow hooks, 2 speed transfer case (low range), slightly better tires, terrain management on WK2, etc. These have Quadra-Trac-II. No air suspension.
      Offroad Adventure 2 package adds Quadra-Drive-II, which is everything from Quadra-Trac-II, but added rear Eaton E-LSD, which acts as an automatic locker. (2005 to 2010 WK/XK had these lockers front and rear). Most of these have air suspension (2011+), unless you order it specifically without. If you aren't rich, DON'T get the air suspension.

    Needs to double the range and be cheaper. I looked it up the other day and 85% of Americans have a commute of 50 miles or less (total). So if you get it to where it gives you 50 miles of all electric, the average American could go to work and back 5 days a week and never use a drop of gas. And since it's got a gas engine as back up, the range is there for road trips, even if the extra weight gives you comparatively less highway MPG than an ICE engine.
    The biggest problem is price. For $70k, you can get a fully loaded Jeep Rubicon or Gladiator. Or a base Wrangler Sport S with $25k in add ons. Make this car $50k and we'll talk. But, that's a criticism of every electric vehicle right now - they're simply too expensive for the average American. A base Tesla Model 3 is nearly $50k after delivery and before potential tax incentives. For a car that would compete with a $25k Ford Fusion if it wasn't all electric. Inflation is 9%. Gas is $4/gallon. Groceries are more expensive than ever. Most people won't choose to spend an extra $20k on an electric vehicle. $20k buys a lot of gas, even at $4/gal.
