 We are here at Summit Automotive in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, and we are checking out the all-new 2018 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk and in particular we are checking out the new color for 2018 which is Patriot Blue It's not really a new color for the Dodger Chrysler lineup, but it is a new color for the Jeep Cherokee in particular for 2018 we always like to go over the new colors As far as you know the light reflecting off of them and getting a really good high-quality video so people can really see the Just how the color looks and maybe get a better idea If it's something they actually want as far as the Patriot blue goes on the Cherokee very good-looking color From what I've seen here When the Sun is out and it's really bright it's a kind of a lighter deep aqua marine blue And when it's a little bit darker, it's a nice dark blue like it is now Getting to the trailhawk package the trailhawk package of course comes with the red tow hooks in the front You get the black hood decal LED running lights HID by Xenon headlamps and the factory fog lights on the bottom there Of course you get the grayed out grill trim right there and the Sun's out here So we can see that metal flake in that Patriot blue is a really good-looking color here Hopefully the Sun stays out for just a second longer The trailhawk also comes with the firestone destination 245 65 R17 tires and they are on the factory painted trailhawk rims They got some really nice aggressive tread on there. However on the highway they do run very quietly and smoothly You get the trail rated 4x4 badge on the side there Very very clean down this side. I really like this color I've had three trailhawks myself all very comfortable vehicles Very good riding get great fuel economy. This is a v6 You can always tell if it's got a v6 in it by looking at the back if it's got two tailpipes It's got the v6 271 horsepower it has the factory towing package 4 pin 7 pin wiring as well as the receiver hitch You got the backup sensors on this one as well as blind spot monitoring in the mirrors You got the grayed out Jeep lettering for the trailhawk and the grayed out 4x4 lettering as well This is a power liftgate should mention that this is a trailhawk plus L plus So got a couple more standard features than just the normal trailhawk Back here. We have the amplified subwoofer.

You also get the full-size spare tire with the Cherokee 4x4s You also have the sunshade right here, which is a pretty neat feature pull that up Keeps your stuff out of the sun if you got groceries. It also keeps you know people from looking in the back and seeing what you have I Guess the theory there is out of sight out of mind And then it does have the power lift gate which you can press that button Beep at you three times and then it'll come on down Looks like we're going to get a little bit of sun here so I'm going to do a back shot of this Cherokee while the sun is out and nice and bright As you can see a very good-looking color here and then when it's in the shadows it kind of looks really dark blue Almost black So the trailhawk L plus package gives you the black Leather seats both of these seats are heated and cool You get the red stitching on the seats as well as the trailhawk and broidered into the backrest You get the factory all-weather floor mats in this one also has power windows power locks and power mirrors You got the memory driver seat auto headlamps, and then your button for the rear gate You get the seven inch configurable tft display so you got your Outside temperature and your compass in the two corners there now You can put whatever you want in there if you want fuel economy or if you want the time or Miles to empty you can configure all of that and of course you get your digital speedometer, which is a really neat feature You have the heated leather wrapped steering wheel in the trailhawk L plus cruise controls on that side bluetooth audio controls and Controls for your display up there.

You have your stability control This is your start-stop button So the 3.2 liter comes with the start-stop technology basically if you come to a stop sign In all the conditions are right temperature engine temp steering wheel is straight you got your seat belt on It'll actually shut off the vehicle and you you don't even notice it And then when you take your foot off the brake it starts the vehicle up automatically It's a really nice fuel savings But that button is in case you don't like it you can press it and then it turns it off for that session of driving Down here you have your auto snow sports sand mud and rock feature This is basically what makes the trailhawk a trailhawk besides all of the different exterior features and styling on the vehicle Because you get a four-wheel drive low feature You also get a downhill assist control and then you can also lock the rear axle and Then you can also put it into this Descent control mode where basically the vehicle will break and accelerate for you for a certain speed And all you have to do is steer the steering wheel in case you're going down some really rugged terrain and It just makes it easier and the whole Four-wheel drive system controls the vehicle. It's pretty awesome. You also have a neutral feature for flat towing Down here you got your SD USB and Augs jack, which is for the radio You got all-weather floor man on that side and the passenger seat very good looking up here We have the vista roof Which I'll open that shade all the way so you get a full Glass roof here, and then of course the power sunroof So that opens up that whole pane of glass right there.

It's been Really good for a Jeep and Chrysler. In fact, they're putting it in just about every new Jeep that they're making Back seats are very clean. You got the latch child safety system right there for car seats And what a lot of people don't know about these seats is that they are adjustable So you can move those forward or back in case you needed extra room in the back down here You have a hundred fifteen volt hundred fifty watt plug-in. You got all-weather floor mats back here And then we do have side curtain airbags. You also have knee bolster airbags So this vehicle has ten airbags in it makes me making it a very safe vehicle These seats do fall down almost completely flat, which I really like and then they also have this little flap right here So nothing falls in between and it can slide a little bit easier when you're putting stuff in Just wanted to show this real quick here So your overall score is a four-star crash rating side crash front and rear seats are five stars so if you got passengers, you know very very safe vehicle that way very safe vehicle all the way around you get four-wheel disc brakes on this vehicle and Like I said, I've had two of them absolutely love every single one.
