Inside the Jeep Cherokee
Jeep Cherokee drivers will feel pretty spoiled when they settle into the spacious and luxurious interior of the 2016 Jeep Cherokee. The Jeep Cherokee upholstery is your blank canvas! Choose from a multitude of Nappa leather trim color combinations, a total of twelve complementing and coordinating colors to match your style. In the top-of-the-line Equinox, your dollar only goes as far as giving you three interior choices. Take notice of some unique features that bring the comforts of home to a new level. 2016 Cherokee drivers can gaze at the stars and admire those breath-taking sunsets with the extra-wide-open view of the optional dual-pane sunroof. One glimpse, and you'll agree it wouldn't be worth it to upgrade to just a single pane in the Equinox. In the front seat of your 2016 Jeep Cherokee, you and your passenger may have to agree on where you're headed or what station to listen to, but at least you don't have to compromise on how you like your temperature. The dual-zone temperature control that's standard in the Cherokee is simply not an option in the 2016 Equinox. Other features you can't find on the Equinox include a heated steering wheel, rear passenger headrests and a height-adjustable passenger seat that folds so second-row passengers can stretch their legs.
2016 JEEP CHEROKEE INVENTORY
Cargo and Storage
When it comes to designing a car that's meant to spend time off of the beaten path, the innovators at Jeep paid special attention to providing space for cargo and belongings. Jeep drivers and riders can stay prepared, equipped and entertained with the abundance of storage solutions that are thoughtfully integrated into the Jeep Cherokee. Jeeps innovative and specialized Cargo Management System provides a list of handy features like hooks to secure groceries from shifting, a storage locker, collapsible cooler, first aid kit and a pet kennel to keep Fido's tail wagging along the ride. Additional storage areas include a large space under the front passenger seat, a place for your electronics within the dashboard and additional overhead storage that you can't find anywhere in the Chevrolet Equinox.
Technology Perks
Just because the 2016 Jeep Cherokee likes to work its way through uncharted terrain and make its camp in secluded locations, doesn't mean it's a stranger to the conveniences of technology. The 8.4-inch high-resolution touch display screen with the user-friendly UConnect® 8.4 interface is the biggest offered on the market today. The Chevy Equinox's screen lacks the high-resolution quality and pales in comparison at 7 inches in size. Jeep drivers will enjoy a full year of satellite subscription in the Cherokee Limited while Equinox LTZ drivers will be sitting in silence after only three months of a satellite teaser. Other handy conveniences on the Cherokee include a universal garage opener to save you and your passengers from the elements when you finally arrive at home. You'll also love the premium customizable 7-inch instrument cluster that allows you to toggle through information like fuel efficiency and performance. Neither of these features made it onto the Equinox.
Is Your SUV "Trail Rated®"
Each 4x4 Jeep earns its stripes in off-roading after passing a series of rigorous tests including traction, water fording, maneuverability, articulation, and ground clearance. Those trucks that make the grade are stamped with a badge of approval known as "Trail Rated®". This is a priority of the Jeep brand to ensure that Jeep drivers can explore wherever they wish. In a Chevy Equinox, you won't find any badge that proves its performance capability. You also won't find a standard windshield wiper and de-icer, rear-window defroster, or turn signals on the side mirrors of a Chevy Equinox.
