2020 Jeep Cherokee Power & Handling

Three engines are available to power the Cherokee in the 2020 model year. The standard engine, a 2.4L 4-cylinder, creates 180 hp and 171 pound-feet of torque. The second engine available is a Pentastar 3.2L V6 that generates 271 hp and 239 pound-feet of torque. The final engine offered, a 2.0L turbo 4-cylinder, produces 270 hp and 295 pound-feet of torque. All three engine options are mated to a nine-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard while AWD and 4WD (Jeep Active Drive and Jeep Active Drive Lock)are available depending on the trim level chosen. Each 4x4 equipped Cherokee model is Trail-Rated, which means it is ready to take on every terrain! Jeep models are put to the test when getting Trail-Rated from ground clearance, tractions, articulation, maneuverability, and water fording.
