Grand ride for Grand Cherokee

Jeep engineers give the 2005 model more on-road comfort, with all the off-road capability.

The 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee follows closely in the tracks of the 1992 Grand Cherokee in its mission to marry off-road competence with smooth, stable highway ride and handling. The original Range Rover was the first to try to combine these often-contradictory traits, but it was Jeep that addressed this challenge for mainstream customers.

The company's latest effort is its best yet, with independent front suspension installed to provide the ride and handling suburban customers demand, but configured to preserve Jeep's trademark off-road prowess. “Just as when it first debuted on the market, the 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee sets the benchmark for off-road capability and continues to do so for on-road refinement,” said Jeff Bell, Vice President, Jeep.
