2000 Grand Cherokee

2000 Cherokee Grand

The designers of the Jeep Grand Cherokee are taking some much needed RandR following last year’s introduction of the second-generation Grand, so there have been no significant mechanical or appearance changes. Signature items like the vertical slot grille and trapezoidal wheel openings remained but were altered just enough to distance it from the previous generation. It was also made 4 inches longer and outfitted with redesigned recirculating-ball steering, a fresh three-link rear suspension, and front Quadra Link coil suspension that make it stable and carlike, and handle like a pro. Another notable improvement was the new automatic transmission, which increases initial acceleration and provides smoother shifting between gears.

The Grand’s standard engine is a 4.0-liter inline six, and the next step up is the optional 4.7-liter V8. You’ll find cloth surroundings standard inside the Laredo, while the Limited lets you slide behind the wheel in leather-trimmed comfort (optional on the Laredo); the leather front seats feature 10-way power-seating choices, but you’ll likely find your comfort level short of that. We’re huge fans of the behind-the-wheel stereo controls (standard on Limited, optional on Laredo), the Infinity sound system and the Infrared Dual Zone Climate Control System that allows the driver and passenger to have separate control settings.

The Laredo’s standard transfer case is the full-time Selec-Trac, while the Limited’s is the on-demand Quadra-Trac II.
