Jeep Cherokee Leads Strong December Sales

Posted on January 8, 2014 by baysideadmin

December was a strong month for Chrysler’s sales. Ever since the bailout, every month has been a story of how the auto company has rebounded from oblivion and into solid sales again. This last December marks the 45th consecutive month of year-over-year sales gains for Chrysler. The month’s gains were attributed by the company to two new popular vehicles.

The 2014 Jeep Cherokee was seen as one of reasons why Chrysler sales grew 6 percent from December in 2012. Since the Cherokee went on sale in October, it has been a hit with drivers. It has since outsold the popular Jeep Wrangler in December. The sales Jeep posted with help from the Cherokee was a 34 percent gain over last year’s December. That is the best December sales ever for Jeep.

Jeep Cherokee Drives Best November Since Recession!

Posted on December 6, 2013 by baysideadmin

The sales figures for Chrysler in the month of November were a very good sign for the continued growth of the company. The growth overall was 16 percent over last year’s. The reason for the growth can be attributed to a new vehicle that Chrysler put out this year, the 2014 Jeep Cherokee.

The sales in November were much higher than anticipated. Analysts had put the expectations of sales at a lower marker than what ended up happening. The final figures turned out to be the best November since before the recession, back in 2007.

The new Jeep Cherokee helped pushed Jeep’s numbers to a record high as well. The Cherokee was very popular with critics and the public. Sales were up 30 percent from last year.

The 2014 Jeep Cherokee comes with a 2.4-Liter Tigershark engine with class-exclusive nine-speed transmission. It also comes equipped with the popular Uconnect system as well.

2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Announced!

Posted on January 15, 2013 by baysideadmin

Jeep already started out 2013 with having strong numbers from the previous year. Continuing with the momentum they have announced the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee.

Motor Trend breaks down all the new bells and whistles. One of the biggest changes that drivers will be seeing in the new model is higher quality of powertrain. The 3.6 liter V-6 also provides a major boost to the fuel economy. That engine gets 17 mpg in the city and 25 mpg on the highway. The 5.7 liter V-8 model has even better numbers with 15 mpg for city driving and 14 on the highway. This extra power also improves the towing capacity for the Jeep. The V-6 is now capable of 6200 pounds and the V-8 can get 7200 pounds.

Another new feature for the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee is something called Eco Mode. What it does is optimize the new transmission’s shift schedule to help with fuel economy by lowering the ride height when you reach a speed above 56 mph.

New thinner headlights give a distinct new image to the exterior of the Grand Cherokee. Even the fog lights have been moved in order to give off a more upscale look. Around on the back side of the Jeep, even the logo sees a new change. It’s larger and has been moved up on the tailgate. The SRT model gets a blackout grille treatment in order to be different itself from other models.

It’s certainly looking to be Jeep’s year with such a strong start. The 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee has everyone buzzing and certainly will keep drivers excited until it finally gets released to the public. For now, it’s time to just drool over every little detail.
