Posted on April 20, 2014 by baysideadmin

Ward’s Auto announced their 10 Best Interiors for 2014, and the 2014 Jeep Cherokee Limited made the cut.

Two vehicles from the Chrysler Group family made the list, the 2014 Jeep Cherokee Limited and the 2015 Chrysler 200C. They are among such distinguished company as the 2014 Rolls-Royce Wraith, which costs $372,800, and the 2014 Mercedes-Benz S550, which costs $122,895. In comparison, the 2014 Jeep Cherokee Limited is a fraction of the price at $37,525, and the 2015 Chrysler 200C is also considerably more affordable at $31,470.

41 vehicles were in consideration for the honor, and editors at Ward’s Auto narrowed it down to the final list with a scoring system, judging materials, value, comfort, and other important factors. In the announcement, Ward’s Auto praised the Jeep Cherokee Limited as a vehicle that “manages to feel right at home both on city streets and deep in the backwoods.” As for the Chrysler 200C, Ward’s Auto calls it the “best segment offering in decades” and “extremely spacious.”

The 2014 Jeep Cherokee Limited and 2015 Chrysler 200C will be honored along with the rest of the winners at a special ceremony on May 21 at the WardsAuto Interiors Conference.

Earlier this month, Jeep unveiled the 2015 Jeep Renegade as part of the Geneva International Motor Show, and Jeep President and CEO Mike Manley was on hand to personally introduce Geneva to the new Renegade.

“Our small SUV stays true to the fun and freedom lifestyle of the brand’s heritage,” Manley said in his presentation, “but it boasts of flexibility for a new generation of vehicles that will attract a new generation of drivers.”

Manley’s presentation was squarely aimed at the European market, highlighting the vehicle’s fuel economy and performance while also showing off its design and capability on the show’s curved, uneven runway. He also brought up the 16 powertrain combinations, suited for the world market and specifically the fuel efficiency-minded European market.
