That's a good looking car!

Too bad Chrysler forgot to put in a battery light or voltage gauge - if your battery dies you'll never know - I guess the reviewer up top missed that little fact when he tested the car and all it's features. - see the full story at carquestions channel

@bigbad1000do7a to see if the car will hold up to the destructive and dangerous driving of a female

@eskimochild87

With the WJ they had the design right! I love my 2004!

That might be hard off road driving in a 2wd street car... not for any real jeep.

@ukmob4life Yeah. Personally the headlight and wheel well re-design appear like Jeep is taking the GC in another direction. I don't have lot of history with Jeep other than my 07 GC which has proven itself worthy this winter. Never had a vehicle go thru deep snow like this before. So long as none of what they're doing negatively affects its off-road prowess, I'm willing to look past stuff like this I guess. In hindsight I wish we would have gotten the 5.7 hemi, but the 4.7 is no slouch.

@KA1040 I agree with you, but i hate the look of it, it just strays too far from Jeep. You know what i mean?

[KA1040]

I love everything about this new Jeep except what appears to be lack of torque from the new Pentastar V6. Yeah, it has more hp than the 4.7 in my 07 Limited, but I'll take torque over HP any day for everyday driving situations including inclement weather. Until they offer a direct injection version I'd steer clear of the V6 and take the V8.

Look for `land rover discovery 4` . You will see more off road action videos.
