Long Island Jeep Fans Love The Grand Cherokee

The new Grand Cherokee has features designed for families as well as off-road enthusiasts.  For those interested in going off-road, the wheels are on independent suspension for the first time, while the Quadra Trac II system (for all-wheel drives versions) tells each wheel how much power is needed depending on the type of terrain.  With the optional Quadra Lift air suspension, small bumps in the road become completely imperceptible.  The cargo area is 35.1 cubic feet, 5.6 more than the previous model.

For Long Island Jeep families, the onboard computer has 30 gigabytes of storage space for music (roughly the same as a mid-range iPod.)  Satellite TV and surround-sound speakers come with the rear seat entertainment system.  The rear seat has been expanded to allow more legroom, and is now as comfortable as a luxury SUV.

The 2011 Grand Cherokee was the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety’s top safety pick for 2010.  Receiving this award requires a vehicle to receive top scores in all categories, including a roof crush test, side and front impact tests, whiplash prevention tests and others.  A vehicle that qualifies must also have an electronic stability system, which is standard in all packages.  For the Limited and Overland trims, a blind spot detection system, collision warning and backup camera are available.

Safety is our number one priority at Grand Prix Jeep Chrysler and we proudly maintain the safety standards associated with the Chrysler name.

Chrysler vehicles are loaded with innovative technology that helps make driving easier and more enjoyable. But, they’re also designed with advanced safety and security technology that helps to keep Long Island Chrysler drivers out of harm’s way. With a multitude of collision avoidance and occupant protection features built into each vehicle, rest assured that our number one focus is always you.

Though you can’t see them, advanced multistage front airbags and supplemental side curtain airbags are standard on most vehicles. Working in conjunction with the three-point integrated restraint system and engineered crush zones, Grand Prix Jeep Chrysler makes sure that your passengers are surrounded by multiple layers of protection.

Safety Features for Long Island Chrysler Drivers

Designed to compress during an accident, crush zones in the front of your vehicle and door beams in the sides help absorb excess energy and decrease transfer of that energy to occupants.

This feature assists Long Island Chrysler customers by monitoring the blind spots of the vehicle. A visual indicator in the side mirrors notifies you of a vehicle entering your blind spot area. If you activate your turn signal to change lanes and a vehicle is located in your blind spot, a visual and audible alert helps warn you to double check your blind spot before changing lanes.

Electronic Stability Control monitors steering input and vehicle motion. It senses when there’s a difference between your intended path and the actual path of the vehicle. It then applies selective braking, and sometimes reduces engine throttle, to help guide your vehicle back on to your intended path.

This accident avoidance feature uses strategically placed sensors designed to detect if vehicles are approaching the rear of your vehicle when backing up. The system helps you monitor the hard to see angles to the left and right of your vehicle while backing out of a visually impaired parking spot.

2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee in Long Island

Nearly two decades ago, Jeep invented the premium sport-utility vehicle segment with the introduction of the Jeep Grand Cherokee. More than four million sales later, Jeep delivers an all-new Grand Cherokee that balances legendary Jeep capability with improved, sophisticated on-road dynamics that deliver a premium driving experience.

Capability highlights include a choice of three 4×4 systems, new Jeep Quadra-Lift™ Air Suspension and Selec-Terrain systems, and towing capability of 7,400 lbs. On-road dynamics are improved courtesy of new independent front and rear suspension systems and a new body structure that dramatically increases torsional stiffness for reduced Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH) levels.

The design of the all-new Jeep Grand Cherokee boasts an all-new sculpted body and athletic profile that define a sleek exterior and aerodynamic finesse. CommandView® – a new dual-pane panoramic sun roof – extends from the windshield to the rear of the vehicle. A world-class interior design is highlighted by premium soft-touch interior materials for all models. The interior provides consumers with more than four inches of increased rear-seat knee and leg room, and 17 percent more cargo volume.

Chrysler Group’s all-new 290-horsepower 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 engine boasts an 11 percent improvement in fuel economy for the Jeep Grand Cherokee, delivering up to 23 mpg and over 500 miles on one tank of gas. The all-new flexible-fuel engine is standard on the Grand Cherokee, and features Variable-valve Timing (VVT), double overhead camshafts and a high-pressure die-cast aluminum cylinder block in a 60-degree configuration.

More than 45 safety and security features are available in the all-new 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee, including standard Active Head Restraints, full-length side-curtain and seat-mounted side thorax air bags, Electronic Stability Control, Electronic Roll Mitigation, Hill-start Assist, and Trailer-sway Control. A Blind-spot/Rear Cross-path detection system and Adaptive Cruise Control with Forward Collision Warning are available.

Numerous advanced technology features are offered, including live mobile TV (FLO TV), SIRIUS Backseat TV and UConnect™ Web, which transforms the vehicle into a “hot spot” to deliver the Internet directly to the vehicle.
