Autobytel Names 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee SUV of the Year

Posted on January 19, 2014 by baysideadmin

2014 is still young, and the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee is already raking in major awards, including Autobytel’s “SUV of the Year.”

At the end of 2013, the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee had achieved the highest November sales number since before the recession as well as a Car of the Year award from the Automotive Journalist Association of Canada for Best New SUV. Jeep is continuing that momentum in January with their most recent win.

Autobytel’s editor-in-chief Michelle Naranjo had high praise for the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee, stating in a recent press release, “For 2014, the Jeep Grand Cherokee embodies a readiness to head off into the hills as an affordable family hauler wrapped around class-leading interiors chockfull of the safety, technology and comfort features that set the Grand Cherokee at the top of the heap.”

Another vehicle from the Chrysler Group was also honored by Autobytel this year. The 2014 Ram 1500 was named the Pickup Truck of the Year, making Chrysler Group a two-time winner. Doug Betts, Senior Vice President of Quality at Chrysler Group, called the awards “a great honor,” attributing their success to the company’s diligent work building “world-class vehicles.”

Jeep Shows Cherokee Trail Carver at SEMA 2013

Posted on November 19, 2013 by baysideadmin

SEMA is always one of the biggest times of the year for automakers, Jeep chief among them. They take great pride in displaying the coolest new additions to their family. This year’s show was no exception.

While the Wrangler was the Jeep being honored by the show, it was the Cherokee that got the Mopar boost. This new custom Jeep is called the Jeep Cherokee Trail Carver.

It’s impossible to bring up the new Jeep Cherokee and not also have to bring up controversy. Much has already been said in defense and against the new look that the Cherokee brings with it. One thing is for certain, though, and that is Jeeps determination to show their fans, both old and new, that a new look doesn’t take away from the same power and reliability that made Jeep as popular as it is today. That’s the mission the Cherokee Trail Carver sets out to do, to remind people of the versatility that comes with owning a Jeep.

The Cherokee Trail Carver comes with a powerful 3.2-liter V6 engine to help it conquer any terrain. This is match by the out look as the Trail Carver is covered in an Auburn Pearl paint job to make it look right at home in the outdoors.

Mopar has done much to infuse their charm and power into the Cherokee Trail Carver.
