Interior

The big difference between the 2017 Jeep Cherokee's interior and its competitors' interior is the quality of materials used. The 2017 Jeep Cherokee offers interior panels that are incredibly soft to the touch, as other SUVs have plastic (or basic) interiors. Surprisingly enough, the 2017 Jeep Cherokee's interior is almost as favorable as the costly Grand Cherokee.

Technology

The 2017 Jeep Cherokee comes with plenty of tech perks that only add comfort whenever traveling. Standard models come with six inch speakers, a 5 inch touch screen, and the Jeep Uconnect infortainment system. If you would like to upgrade your infotainment system, one can opt for an 8.4 inch touch screen. It should be mentioned that the Uconnect system is known as one of the best infotainment systems on the market, as the menus are incredibly easy to understand, it responds to voice commands, and it utilizes a few physical buttons for common feature access. The 2017 Jeep Cherokee Limited offers heated front seats, a power-adjustable driver seat, remote start, a heated steering wheel, dual-zone automatic climate control, and an upgraded Uconnect system with an 8.4 touch screen.

Performance

The 2017 Jeep Cherokee is what one would want if they're in the market for an affordable SUV that can operate as a commuter car. It wants you to have it all, as it provides decent technology, an upscale cabin, off-road abilities, and a comfortable drive. If you plan on taking the vehicle off road, investing in the vehicle would be an excellent idea as the base models may not be the perfect choice.

Safety

The 2017 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk, Limited, and Latitude models offer a safety package that covers rear cross traffic alerts and blind spot monitoring. It's possible to option out the Limited (and above) models to include a forward collision warning. This collision warning system comes with automatic breaking, meaning that when the vehicle senses an imminent collision, it applies the brakes to avoid an accident. Other safety perks include adaptive cruise control, perpendicular/parallel park assist, automatic high-beam control, and lane departure warning. The adaptive cruise control maintains a preset distance that exists between the 2017 Jeep Cherokee and the vehicle in front (when the SUV is in cruise control).
