2006 jeep grand cherokee review this car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale. New models complete recently redesigned lineup. introductionthe 2006 jeep grand cherokee lineup features two new models, the luxurious overland and the high-performance srt8. The grand cherokee was completely redesigned for 2005, and is bigger, more modern, and more powerful than previous versions of this iconic, midsize suv. the edgy, angular body is devoid of cladding and is proportioned differently from earlier jeeps. It looks new and contemporary, but people instantly recognize it as a grand cherokee. interior materials are dramatically improved over the previous generation's, which left much to be desired. The atmosphere inside the latest grand cherokee is light, comfortable, and more enveloping than the previous model; from the driver's perspective it's more bolted in than hanging on, with lots of seat adjustment, excellent outward vision around relatively slim windshield posts, and with all the switches and controls clearly labeled and easy to find and use. In back is nearly 70 cubic feet of cargo space. a more sophisticated suspension gives the current grand cherokee much better handling than that of pre-2005 models, with less leaning in corners, along with better ride quality. The 5. 7-liter hemi v8 is particularly good for towing or driving at higher elevations. The srt8 has a 420-hp 6. 1-liter hemi and can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in less than five seconds. The 4. 7-liter overhead-cam v8 is optional 720 with 2wd, $1,340 with 4wd). Cloth upholstery is standard, but leather bucket seats are available 850) when ordered with other options. Air conditioning comes standard, along with one-touch power windows, power locks with remote keyless entry, eight-way power driver's seat, am/fm/cd audio with auxiliary input jack, driver information center, 60/40 split folding rear seat, an engine immobilizer, water-resistant storage compartment, and 17-inch tires and wheels. Quadra-trac ii, which includes a low range, is optional 620) with the v6 and standard with the v8. the limited 33,415) comes with the 4. 7-liter v8 and leather upholstery. Also standard: automatic climate control; boston acoustics six-speaker 276-watt am/fm stereo with six-cd changer and mp3 capability; power adjustable pedals; power passenger seat; memory function for the seats, pedals, and mirrors; automatic headlamps; rain-sensing automatic wipers; electrochromic rearview mirror; homelink; tire pressure monitor with display; adjustable roof rack crossrails; and machined-face 17-inch aluminum wheels. Limited 4wd 36,005) gets all that plus quadra-trac ii. Other platinum accents highlight the exterior. Overland 4wd 42,230) adds quadra-drive ii. the srt8 39,300) comes with a 6. 1-liter hemi rated 420 horsepower, a lowered suspension and its own electronic all-wheel-drive system. Distinctive bumper fascias and 20-inch wheels make srt8 instantly identifiable. Inside are sport seats, special trim, and an level of standard features roughly analogous to the limited's. Side curtain air bags are optional 560). options include gps navigation built into the radio 1,200), a rear-seat dvd entertainment system 1,200), sunroof 800), a trailer tow package 255), boston acoustics audio, uconnect hands-free communication system 275), smart beam headlamps that sense the available natural light and adjust accordingly, and parksense rear park assist. An off-road package 420) with tow hooks is available, along with chromed alloy wheels, and an engine block heater. walkaroundthe jeep grand cherokee is considered a midsize sport utility. It's smaller than a ford explorer. In appearance, it is at once more modern and more square-edged. With its higher waistline and smaller windows, it is looks more assertively american. while conventional suvs, such as the dodge durango, are built on a separate frame like a truck, the grand cherokee uses an unusual construction scheme jeep calls uniframe, a close marriage of a welded steel unit-body and underlying front and rear modules. This is an extremely sturdy and rigid concept developed back in jeep's days with unit-body pioneer american motors. The grand cherokee has earned a five-star safety rating in both front and side impact tests from the federal government. laredo models come with a body-colored grille and bumpers, black door handles, and contrasting-color bodyside and sill moldings. Limited models present a somewhat flashier appearance, with a chromed grille, bright inserts in the bumpers, body-color door handles, and platinum bodyside molding. the overland is distinguished by mesh-texture grille inserts between its traditional vertical grille bars, which are platinum in finish; platinum accents also appear on the bumpers, side molding, roof-rack side rails, liftgate light bar, side-view mirrors, and wheels, while sill moldings are body-color. jeep reached deep into its heritage to revive the overland name. First built in 1903, the overland automobile was the earliest ancestor of the willys. Willys played an instrumental role in the development and production of the world war ii-era jeep, but was also the first automaker to seriously envision a civilian market for a military-style utility vehicle. The willys jeep debuted in 1946 and had its name shortened to just-plain jeep in the early 1960s. Although the jeep brand has passed through several owners since then, its lineage remains unbroken. the srt8 has a monochrome look all its own, relieved by bright accents at the belt level and bodyside and accented by enormous five-spoke, 20-inch forged aluminum wheels. Functional air ducts in its more bluff front bumper fascia improve brake cooling. Srt8 is available only in bright silver, brilliant black or inferno red. It looks hot, very sporty. When we pulled up to a posh restaurant, the valets insisted in posing it in front, a position usually reserved for ferraris and such. interiorthe grand cherokee interior was completely redesigned, beginning with the 2005 models, and it's significantly improved. The two-tone, dark-over-light-over-dark instrument panel and door trims; vinyl grains; and materials and finishes are generally much richer and better looking than in the previous generation. That's good because the previous generation wasn't that great. There's more travel in the seat tracks, allowing more legroom for tall drivers. On the limited model, the gauges are surrounded by chrome rings. The handbrake lever has a spindly, low-quality feel to it, however. the 2006 grand cherokee overland model enhances these interior improvements with high-contrast two-tone ultrasuede seats featuring accent stitching and embroidered overland logos; plus real wood trim on the steering wheel, instrument panel, door panels, and gear selector. Unique blue-accented gauges include a 180-mph speedometer plus oil pressure and oil temperature readouts in.

2006 jeep commander review this car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale. Equipped with a higher level of safety and security features than any previous jeep, the commander represents the first salvo in jeep's upcoming product offensive. lineupthe commander comes in two models, the jeep commander 27,290), and the commander limited 35,585). Two-wheel drive (2wd) is standard, but 4wd is available for both the base model 29,290) and the limited 38,205). the base model jeep commander comes standard with a 3. 7-liter sohc v6, rated at 210 horsepower and 235 pound-feet of torque. The v6 is mated to a five-speed automatic transmission designed to balance performance and fuel economy. on 4wd models, the standard system is jeep's quadra-trac i, which is an automatic full-time all-wheel-drive system enhanced by electronic traction control. standard features on the commander include air conditioning, am/fm stereo with cd player and 6 speakers, power windows, power heated mirrors, power eight-way driver's seat, flipper glass on the liftgate with remote control, all-terrain tires on 17-inch cast aluminum wheels with tire-pressure monitoring, and speed control. the commander limited comes with a bigger engine, more sophisticated driveline engineering and a wide array of comfort and convenience options. It can be distinguished by distinctive chrome accents and trim on the grille and throughout the body. Standard is the 4. 7-liter v8 engine, rated to produce 235 horsepower and 305 pound-feet of torque. A different five-speed automatic transmission, with taller ratios and three planetary gear sets, backs both the 4. 7-liter v8 and the optional 5. 7-liter hemi v8. the optional 5. 7-liter hemi v8 845), producing 330 horsepower and 375 pound-feet of torque, is available with fuel-saving multi-displacement system (mds) technology, which shuts down cylinders as the opportunity arises under light load conditions. the commander limited 4x4 models come standard with a full-time active 4wd system, jeep's quadra-trac ii. Also standard is sirius satellite radio with one-year subscription, security alarm, tire pressure monitoring display, rear cabin climate controls and universal garage door opener. options include rear dvd, engine block heater, saddle brown seating surfaces, full map gps display with navigation radio, and 17-inch chrome-clad wheels. jeep tells us the commander has the highest level of safety and security ever offered on a chrysler group vehicle. Abs braking is complimented with electronic stability control (esp) to enhance driver control. Brake assist, a system that actively applies maximum braking in panic situations, works to provide the shortest possible stopping distances. Side-curtain air bags with a roll detection system deploy in case of rollover and/or side impact. Front air bags are multi-stage type that deploy in stages according to the severity of an impact event. The frame and body structure are constructed to manage impact energy in the event of a collision, working in conjunction with the air bag and seat belt systems, which are equipped with belt pretensioners and constant-force retractors. walkaroundthe commander is instantly recognizable as a jeep, thanks to liberal use of jeep design cues, such as the seven-slot grille, trapezoidal wheel wells, and squared-off lines with flat surfaces. Exposed allen head bolts along the wheelwells and in the headlamp module are decorative, intended to create a technical look. the commander is larger than the grand cherokee: longer by 2 inches and nearly 4 inches taller, due mostly to a stepped roof line that makes headroom for the rear-seat passengers. The stepped effect is concealed by a roof rack rail, which is standard on all models. Body sides are more vertical than those on most suvs, consistent with jeep design heritage. From the rear, the flat hatch and prominently squared-off d-pillar assist handles help define a boxier space that reminds us of the hummer h2. interiora sense of spaciousness is the reason customers will be attracted to the commander. From the driver's seat, the commander retains the cozy look and feel of a grand cherokee. The difference begins behind the driver, where the raised roof permits use of stadium seating, in which each row is higher than the one in front of it. second- and third-row passengers have enhanced forward visibility. Overhead skylights add an airy feeling for passengers in the second row. The skylights are fixed and don't open, but they have pull-out shades to filter light and reduce heat. the third-row seats will accommodate an adult, but seem more likely to be designed for children in the eight- to 10-year-old range. To access the rear, the second-row seat flops forward, allowing a careful adult a reasonably easy path to one of the split-bench seats, which are divided 50-50. My average size and weight allowed me to make my way into the third row with minimal effort. Still, the commander is only a few inches bigger than a standard grand cherokee, so back-row seating is not ideal for taller adults and longer trips. The third row does have available rear heating and air conditioning controls, and nearby power points. both the second- and third-row seats fold perfectly flat to create a load floor, and there is an l-shaped storage bin located behind the third-row seats. The arrangement means that there will always be a practical way to configure the commander for either more passenger seating, or added cargo and gear. It strikes us as versatile, with few designed-in tradeoffs. The load floor height is relatively high, however, at 36. 2 inches, meaning it requires extra effort to load cargo. driving impressionwe had the opportunity to spend a day in the commander starting in the philadelphia area, leaving the city and traveling toward the pocono mountains, first on interstate highways and finally, on smaller two-lane roads. It was warm and humid that day in philadelphia, but the commander reminded us of the kind of vehicle we'd like to get into on a cold, windy day. There is a tangible sheltering quality that immediately appealed to us. for a seven-passenger suv, the commander feels remarkably nimble and responsive around town. Steering, a rack-and-pinion design, feels more precise than the truck-based suvs we'd been driving. We noticed the commander, like the grand cherokee, is just a little quicker, better balanced, and a little more conducive to aggressive driving than the average suv. Throttle response around town is gratifyingly direct, which we later discovered is due to the fact that the automatic transmission is a multi-speed design, that effectively supplies two second gear ratios. Punching the throttle signaled the automatic to kick down into the lower ratio to supply greater acceleration. Otherwise, a taller ratio with a smoother upshift would be used. Jeeps are not the most aerodynamic vehicles in the world, but wind and tire noise seemed unremarkable, well within the range of the average suv and something less than bigger, square-bodied truck-based 4x4s. The standard v6, which we did not drive, is epa rated to deliver 17 mpg city and 21 highway, compared to 15/20 for the 4. 7 v8. In terms of horsepower, the two engines are not that far apart either, but the 4. 7 appears to be the superior power plant when it comes to torque.
