The 2015 Jeep Cherokee is a relatively new model that's aimed at the small SUV crowd.

The 2015 Jeep Cherokee earned a 4 star rating for its front impact,5 star for its side impact and 4 star for roll over. (this was all the nice things i could say about it)

The 2015 Jeep Cherokee is a carry over from the 2014 model year which was the release of the new model which separates itself from the more premium Grand Cherokee by being less expensive,smaller,with less available features. The Cherokee is under-powered and lacks certain creature comforts that other small sport utilities vehicles in its segment have standard.
The Jeep Cherokee isn't a very pretty looking SUV, with its overbite looking front end.Its visibility leaves much to be desired due to its high rear end and small windows.
The 2015 jeep latitude handles normally for its size however it tends to get quite jittery on uneven surfaces.
In all the Jeep Cherokee Latitude costs thousands less then Grand Cherokee however, the under powered drive-train and rough handling can not be ignored.The Cherokee is a major disappointment in all areas.Its does not have good quality materials and it feels cheap and out of date.The ride is bumpy and unrefined.
The Jeep Cherokee was made with the intention to be more gas efficient then the Grand Cherokee..here is the kicker..ITS NOT it averages just 22/31 which if you compare it to the most efficient engine available on the Grand Cherokee is only 2 miles more per gallon in the city and 1 more mile per gallon highway.Even the Grand Cherokees most thirsty engine a 475 6.4 liter is 100% more fun to drive and averages 13/17 which if price was not a factor id go for,at least i would have a reason to get bad fuel economy.Getting only 22 mpg in this slow turtle is a joke in itself.
If your on a budget and you really want a Jeep then go for a Grand Cherokee and pick one of the more efficient engines.Yes, the Grand Cherokee is more expensive by about $7,000 base model being compared to base model.But I'm wiling to bet you would be more comfortable with a base Grand Cherokee then you would with a base Cherokee.The quality of the interior by itself is worth the investment.
