Factors that make the 2017 Jeep Cherokee a powerful car
Generally, SUVs tend to be slightly raucous in nature. The 2017 Jeep Cherokee is a revelation! Its four-cylinder engine behaves in a more refined and relaxed manner than most other engines do, even while providing comfortable and speedy transport. Now, you cannot deny that going around turns may cause you to feel the weight of the machine. Regardless, your common sense should tell you that only heavy Jeep Cherokee SUVs could make it comfortably over rough and tough terrains!
Considering, that, you need to be rather powerful yourself, to handle the 2017 Jeep Cherokee, you must feel apprehensive about safety. Well, you need not be, for the manufacturers have taken great care in adhering to standard safety requisites. To begin with, there seem to be airbags all over the place! You have them hidden in the front and rear seats, in order to protect the driver and the passengers. Others remain hidden in the front knee space and in the side curtains.
Additionally, the automobile is equipped with an anti-lock braking system (ABS) and an electronic stability program (ESP). The ABS comes into play for controlling traction. This means that when individual sensors on your 2017 Jeep Cherokee detect that a particular wheel is spinning faster than the others are, they warn the ABS. It immediately distributes the ‘spinning motion’ and brings all four wheels on par with one another. As for ESP, it ensures that your vehicle moves in the direction it is supposed to move, by ‘biting’ one or more wheels, or even cutting off the ‘power supply’! You never know when your automobile becomes unstable on snowy/icy roads. You will be glad of some assistance then!
You will be glad to know that the 2017 Jeep Cherokee has received an excellent rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The establishment considers it good, as far as roof strength, moderate-overlap front impact and side crash tests are concerned. They have awarded the same rating to the head and seat restraint design for protection against whiplash injuries. Above all, the optional forward collision mitigation system is ‘Superior’ too!
