Reviews about
Grand Cherokee (diesel):
Externally, the car is very stylish, powerful, masculine. In the parking lot and on the road, it dominates the rest of the cars. The cabin is quite roomy, especially the first row of seats, which can easily fit a tall and broad-shouldered passenger and driver, without interfering with each other. There is already less space behind, people will have to make room if they want to accommodate three of them.
As an SUV follows, the Grand Cherokee is notable for its good cross-country ability - it goes quietly along blurry roads, sand, snow, water barriers, jokingly overcomes curbs, pits and bumps on the road, which also contributes to high ground clearance. The model is quite powerful, even with the 3.0 engine, it accelerates quickly, maneuverable, despite its impressive dimensions and weight. A big plus of the Grand Cherokee car is its trunk. Even when folded, a pile of things is placed in it, including purchases from a store, a stroller, travel accessories. If you transform the interior and remove the rear seats, the trunk is doubled. In this situation, it is possible to transport bulky goods and household appliances in it.
There is a Grand Cherokee car and a number of minuses. First of all, they include high fuel consumption, which when driving fast in the city often exceeds 21 liters. Complaints often come and cheap hard plastic in the cabin, which often creaks. Owners also mention wide front struts and large rear head restraints that limit visibility.
