Cortijo Curiel, a dream location within one of the most prestigious natural landscapes in southern Spain, has been the ideal setting to test the full #Jeep 4xe line-up – Wrangler, Renegade, Compass - and their capabilities and introduce the all-new #Jeep #grandcherokee. A symbolic location that embodies the Brand’s pillar of freedom, adventure, and fun to drive thanks to its position on the beautiful Mediterranean sea near Malaga city, beaches and nightlife.

The press conference was held at the stunning Higueron Hotel —a multifunctional space that communicates its ethical values and care for the environment: it offers an electric car dedicated charging infrastructure, and its design meets the highest standards of eco-living concepts. A beautiful setting that also highlight Jeep’s commitment to sustainability and the brand electric evolution.

Introducing the full #Jeep 4xe line-up and the all-new #grandcherokee, Eric Laforge, Head of #Jeep Brand in Europe, said: “4xe technology uses electric drive to reinforce the unique #Jeep DNA and the legendary off-road capability of our brand. In fact, it offers amazing torque on demand, more acceleration and fun and even more outdoors freedom in almost total silence. Today we further extend our offer with the flagship #grandcherokee. We are talking about a fifth-generation icon: the first to bring to the road the idea of a “Premium 4x4” in 1992, and the most awarded UV ever. #grandcherokee, which will be offered in Plug-in Hybrid version only, enters the LEV category as one of the most technologically-advanced, 4x4-capable and refined UVs ever. Its 4xe technology enhances fun, freedom and adventure while providing top performance, capability, fuel economy and eco-friendliness. It represents an important step in our roadmap to full electric.”

The all-new architecture and sculpted aerodynamic body style combine to improve vehicle performance, safety and reliability, while significantly reducing vehicle weight, noise and vibration. Designed to maximize overall passenger safety, comfort and convenience, the all-new Jeep® #grandcherokee 4xe packs a powerful punch with next generation features and technologies that make it a standout in the full-size #SUV segment.

 

First-ever #grandcherokee 4xe PHEV

The all-New #Jeep #grandcherokee 4xe combines advanced turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, two high voltage electric motors, robust TorqueFlite 8-speed automatic transmission and proven #Jeep 4x4 systems, resulting in 380 hp and 637 Nm of torque. Specifically, the 400-volt battery pack is made of 96-cell lithium-ion and ensures up to 48km of all-electric combined range, which becomes 51km in city range, and a total range of up to 700km.

With the charging solutions offered by the brand and the use of connected services such as My Echarge, there are no longer any compromises to be made. It becomes child's play to organize your electricity charging needs with the Free2Move e-solution partner, whether on public charging station or on your own domestic wallbox. All these activities are all the easier to manage; all is takes is to download the #Jeep mobile application.

The hybrid powertrain can be tailored to suit each trip, from daily commuting in pure-electric mode to no range anxiety for extended highway road trips, and allowing owners to explore nature off-road in near silence in EV mode. Different EV drive modes are available:

  • Hybrid Mode: This is the default mode. Hybrid mode blends torque from the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine and electric motors. In this mode the powertrain will use HV battery power first, adding power from the 2.0-liter turbocharged I-4 to maximize responsiveness. When the battery becomes depleted, the vehicle seamlessly transitions to conventional hybrid electric vehicle operation.
  • Electric Mode: When the high voltage battery has sufficient State of Charge, the powertrain can operate on zero-emission electric power up to expressway speeds. In this mode, the engine will only turn on when the driver requests maximum power. When the battery becomes depleted, the vehicle will automatically revert to the Hybrid mode.
  • eSave Mode: This mode prioritizes propulsion from the 2.0-liter engine, saving the battery charge for later use such as EV off-roading or urban areas where internal combustion propulsion may be restricted. The engine will be shut off when power demand is low, for example when the vehicle is stationary, or when coasting.
  • Regenerative braking: whenever the vehicle is decelerating, the system first uses the available regenerative braking (up to 0.25 G) from the electric motors to slow the vehicle and recharge the battery, augmented by the traditional friction brakes when heavy deceleration is required, or when low traction conditions are detected.

 

Legendary #Jeep 4x4 Capability

The all-new #Jeep #grandcherokee 4xe delivers unrivaled capability along with composed on-road driving dynamics. That legendary off-road capability begins courtesy of two 4x4 systems – Quadra-Trac II and Quadra-Drive II with rear electronic limited slip-differential (eLSD). Both systems are equipped with an active transfer case to improve traction by moving torque to work with the wheel with the most grip.

The class-exclusive #Jeep Quadra-Lift air suspension now with electronic adaptive damping, delivers class-leading ground clearance and water fording. The system automatically adjusts to changing road conditions for enhanced comfort stability and control. delivers up to 27.5 cm of ground clearance and 61 cm of water fording.

The class-leading Selec-Terrain™ traction management system lets customers choose the on- or offroad setting for optimum 4x4 performance. This feature electronically coordinates 4x4 torque split, braking and handling, steering and suspension systems, throttle control, transmission shift, transfer case, traction control, stability control, anti-lock braking system (ABS) and steering feel.

The Selec-Terrain system offers five available terrain modes (Auto, Sport, Rock, Snow, Mud/Sand) to provide optimized calibrations for any given driving scenario.

New for the Jeep® #grandcherokee 4xe is front axle disconnect. If the vehicle senses that road conditions do not require all-wheel drive, the front-axle disconnect automatically places the #grandcherokee in two-wheel drive, reducing drag on the driveline and improving fuel economy. Four-wheel drive automatically re-engages when the vehicle senses it is needed.

 

The most luxurious and technologically advanced #grandcherokee ever

The slim, sculpted exterior of the all-new #Jeep #grandcherokee delivers a more modern and updated premium appearance and is characterized by a wilder and larger iconic seven-slot grille and new front fascia, all-new premium, full-suite of LED lighting and a gloss black roof. The aerodynamic performance and efficiency are improved thanks to a lowered, tapered roof, thus without sacrificing cargo spaciousness and utility, while the lowered beltline and expansive glass allow more light into the cabin and increase outward visibility.

The all-new generous interior features handcrafted materials, class-leading rear-seat legroom and increased visibility. With such luxurious features and technology, the #grandcherokee offers the possibility to take advantage of increased comfort, in particular by using the My Navigation connected service. If it is relevant to benefit from driving assistance when traveling by having a map that updates automatically via the Internet, to avoid congested roads, so as not to waste time...
