The Jeep Grand Cherokee has long been a favorite for New Orleans drivers who want an SUV that's both comfortable and off-road capable. But now, Jeep is offering three versions of its midsize SUV. The new Jeep Grand Cherokee L , WK, and all-new WL are available for purchase or lease at Bergeron Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram. Read on to see which version is right for you.
Jeep redesigned the Cherokee for 2022, giving it more standard features and offering a more fuel-efficient plug-in hybrid powertrain. People in Metairie who want to spend less on gas will like that the new Grand Cherokee WL 4xe has an all-electric range of 24 miles before switching over to gasoline power. Jeep also re-tuned the Grand Cherokee WL's suspension for a smoother ride on city streets.
The new Grand Cherokee WL still has the off-road ability you love, with three available four-wheel drive systems and up to 11.3 inches of ground clearance. Grand Cherokee WL Trailhawk trims have a limited-slip differential, a terrain management system, and skid plates that enable them to conquer some of the most rugged landscapes. When properly equipped, the Grand Cherokee WL can tow up to 7,200 pounds.
Jeep also refreshed the 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee WL's interior and exterior design. It now has a lower roofline and beltline and a more pronounced chin. Its seven-slot grille is now slightly tilted, and flanked by slimmer LED headlights. Inside, Jeep made the Grand Cherokee WL longer and wider for more legroom. Kenner drivers will appreciate its revised infotainment system, which has a larger standard touch screen (8.4 inches) and a standard Wi-Fi hot spot.
If you like the Jeep Grand Cherokee, but you need room for more passengers, the 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L is a fantastic choice. This larger Grand Cherokee version has three rows of seats that can hold up to seven people. Slidell drivers will like the Grand Cherokee L's feature-rich infotainment system, which comes standard with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The L also has one of the largest cargo capacities in its class - at 84.6 cubic feet with the second and third rows folded.
Like most Jeeps, the new Jeep Grand Cherokee L has tremendous off-road skills, especially when equipped with the Off-Road package. This setup includes beefier all-terrain tires, a limited-slip rear differential, low-range gearing, and skid plates. The Grand Cherokee L rides more gently on pavement than the WL thanks to softer suspension tuning. It comes standard with a 293-horsepower V6 engine, but a 357-horsepower V8 is available.
If you prefer the classic two-row Jeep Grand Cherokee, it's still available for sale at Bergeron Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, but with a new moniker - the 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee WK. This version still offers four engines, including the supercharged 707-horsepower V8. People in Westwego will appreciate that the Grand Cherokee WK Trackhawk can go from 0 to 60 in just 3.5 seconds!
Inside, the new Jeep Grand Cherokee WK has supportive, nicely cushioned seats and great outward visibility. It comes standard with support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, but a Wi-Fi hotspot is just optional. The WK only has 68.3 cubic feet of total cargo space, compared to 70.8 cubic feet of cargo room in the Grand Cherokee WL.
Regardless of which version you get, the 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee is one of the best in its class at going off the beaten path. People who in New Orleans who prioritize passenger and cargo space will prefer the Grand Cherokee L, while others will rather have the Grand Cherokee WL's refinement and efficiency. The Grand Cherokee WK offers power and speed the others can't match. Bergeron Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram is a family-owned dealership serving the Metairie area of over 50 years.
