2015 Jeep® Cherokee: Most Capable Mid-size SUV Expands Availability of Features Customers Desire for 2015.
Jeep lovers from Stony Brook to St James, from East Setauket to Lake
Grove and all over Long Island should not be surprised that the all-new 2015 Jeep Cherokee is smarter, more fuel efficient and more powerful.
The 2015 Jeep® Cherokee
debuts engine stop-start (ESS) technology, an emission-lowering and
fuel-saving feature on 2015 Jeep Cherokee models powered by the
3.2-liter Pentastar V6 engine.
ESS technology increases fuel efficiency by shutting the
engine off when the vehicle comes to a complete stop. Amenities (radio,
gauges, heating or air conditioning, etc.) continue to operate, making
the operation transparent to the driver. The engine restarts
automatically when the driver releases the brake, allowing seamless
acceleration.
Jeep Cherokee
gets 2015 off to a fast start! Starter and battery systems have been
upgraded to complement the ESS technology for heavy-duty operation on
models equipped with the feature. This includes a high-durability
starter housed in a stronger case, heavy-duty flywheel teeth and a more
robust starter solenoid. During testing, the new starter was subjected
to durability testing cycles more than 2.5 times that of a
non-stop-start equipped unit – more than 300,000 on/off cycles.
The new battery features 700 amps with absorbed glass
mat (AGM) technology.System voltage is continually monitored through a
battery sensor. If the battery's charge is reduced, the vehicle will
discontinue stop-start until the battery is recharged to an acceptable
level.
Stop-start is activated automatically and requires no
input from the driver. A system disable switch is located on the dash if
the operator wishes to suspend the feature.
The 2015 Jeep Cherokee
powered by the 2.4-liter MultiAir2 engine is now a Partial Zero
Emission Engine (PZEV) in the 14 states that have adopted California Air
Resources Board (CARB) regulations. This entails a revised fuel tank,
new fuel filler neck, new air cleaner, new engine downpipe, modified
vapor purge canister and new fuel cap.
