Off-Roading Capability
If you really want to get the most of the outdoors, the 2019 Jeep Cherokee offers the available Jeep® Active Drive I and II 4x4 System or the Jeep® Active Drive Lock 4x4 System. These three impressive 4x4 Systems allow you to take on any road, weather, or off-road conditions with complete confidence.
The Jeep® Active Drive I include a rear axle disconnect and standard Brake Lock Differential for better off-road efficiency. The Jeep® Active Drive II comes with everything that the Active Drive offers but adds a low range and Neutral Mode. The 4WD Low Mode is great for extra low-speed traction while the Neutral Mode enables available flat towing behind an RV.
The 4x4 systems utilize the Jeep Selec-Terrain® Traction Management System that gives the driver the ability to switch between five accurately tuned driving modes including: Auto, Sport, Snow, Sand/Mud and available Rock to effectively conquer anything mother nature throws at you.
The available Jeep® Active Drive Lock 4x4 System comes as a package with the Jeep® Active Drive II that is standard on the Trail Rated® Trailhawk and Trailhawk Elite. This 4x4 System includes a mechanical rear axle lock and adds the Rock driving mode to the Jeep Selec-Terrain® Traction Management System.
