While some folks in the Sand Creek Eau Claire region were sad to hear the departure of the Jeep Patriot, the folks at jeep made sure its replacement would be more than impressive. Mike Manley, president and CEO of the brand, goes on to say, "So when we styled this vehicle, when we set our engineers to create this new generation, we wanted to make sure that we were progressive, not just in terms of its capabilities-it is more capable than Liberty-not just in terms of its fuel economy-it's 45 percent more fuel efficient than the previous vehicle-not just in terms of its styling or its interior, but the complete package."1
Did you know that the new Cherokee will be the
first Jeep model to be built on a platform from Chrysler owner, Fiat? This new
model will also feature an efficient 2.4-liter Tigershark MiltiAir2 four-cylinder
engine. And while the folks at Gilberts of Sand Creek were sad to see the Jeep
Liberty cease production, we are confident the Jeep Cherokee will be an
acceptable replacement!
