Grand Cherokee Pricing Unveiled

Available from the 1 March, Jeep’s latest special edition model will attract a lot of interest from new buyers wanting to test drive the luxurious Grand Cherokee Overland Tech.

Customer demand for even more lavishly equipped 4x4 vehicles has led to a new special edition Jeep Grand Cherokee being introduced.

Priced at £33,450, the Grand Cherokee Overland Tech is extremely well equipped and offers customers fantastic value for money combined with Jeep’s legendary four-wheel-drive capability. Only 115 models will be made available.

The Jeep Grand Cherokee range now includes four models; Limited, Overland, SRT-8 and the new Overland Tech. The popular 3.0-litre, six cylinder diesel engine in the Grand Cherokee Overland Tech, produces 215 bhp and 376 Ib ft of torque to give the Grand Cherokee a top speed of 124 mph. Grand Cherokee Overland Tech goes from to 62.5 mph in 9.7 seconds.

The Grand Cherokee Overland Tech is brimming with a whole host of high tech equipment – sunscreen glass, 18 inch alloy wheels, xenon headlamps, front and rear park assist, rear back-up camera and rain sensitive automatic windscreen wipers.

The elegant and luxurious theme continues inside with leather trimmed seats, real Walnut Burlwood accents, power front seats, electric windows, dual-zone air conditioning, power sunroof and heated door mirrors.

Safety is increasingly important for customers and the Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland Tech is fitted with many standard safety features including Electronic Stability Control (ESC) that delivers four security features to improve overall vehicle handling and performance both on- and off-road: Electronic Roll Mitigation (ERM) reacts and applies brakes during extreme situations while available Hill Descent Control (HDC) and Hill Start Assist (HSA) work with optional Trailer-Sway Control (TSC) to enhance off-road and towing capabilities.

Federico Goretti, Managing Director of Chrysler UK Ltd, said: "We are very confident that the Grand Cherokee Overland Tech with its combination of luxury, ability, equipment and competitive price will find favour with many UK customers.

"The Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland Tech offers customer savings of £4,300 over the Overland model. With only 115 models for sale we expect high demand, so interested buyers should visit their nearest Jeep dealership for more information and to test drive this special edition."

Jeep Grand Cherokee models are covered by the comprehensive Jeep warranty scheme, which provides a three-year/60,000 mile mechanical warranty, seven-year anti-corrosion warranty and one-year European roadside assistance.
