The 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee makes news by getting slightly revised styling
and a more powerful available V8 engine. This is the smaller of Jeep's two
midsize SUVs. Laredo, LImited, and Overland trims are offered with
rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive that can be equipped with a low-range
gear for off-roading. A high-performance SRT8 model has all-wheel drive
without the low-range gear. Laredos have a 210-hp 3.7-liter V6 engine.
Optional on those and standard on Limited is a new 305-hp 4.7-liter V8,
which replaces a 235-hp 4.7 V8. Optional on Limited and standard on Overland
is a 330-hp 5.7-liter Hemi V8 that includes Chrysler's Multi Displacement
System cylinder deactivation. SRT8s have a 420-hp 6.1-liter Hemi without
cylinder deactivation. Optional on Limited and Overland is a 215-hp
3.0-liter turbodiesel V6. All Grand Cherokees have a 5-speed automatic
transmission. Available safety features include ABS, traction control,
antiskid system, curtain side airbags, and front side airbags. Hill descent
control is newly available. A navigation system and mobile satellite
television are optional.
