Which Jeep Cherokee trim should I buy?

Should I buy a used Jeep Cherokee now or wait for the next model?

Buy now if:

• Price trend: The 2023 model is at −16.23% versus a year ago, and the 2022 model is at −17.42%.
• Deal availability: The 2022 model has 29.3% good and great deals.
• Sweet-spot year: The 2020 model has the most listings at a current average price of $21,480 CAD. The Jeep Cherokee offers a distinctive blend of Jeep heritage, everyday practicality, and comfortable road manners.

Consider waiting if:

• Powertrain/efficiency: The new Cherokee’s specs don’t seem very Jeep-like at first. The only powertrain available at launch consists of a 1.6-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine connected to a two-motor hybrid system with a planetary gearset taking the place of a conventional transmission, similar to what Subaru and Toyota use. It’s good for 210 horsepower and 230 pound-feet of torque.
• Tech: The 2026 Cherokee comes standard with a 12.3-inch touchscreen and a 10.2-inch digital instrument cluster, still running the same Uconnect 5 infotainment system as the outgoing Cherokee from the 2023 model year. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto remain standard along with a pair of USB-C ports for both the front and rear rows on all but the base model.
• Safety: Jeep offers similar standard driver assistance features to other mainstream brands, including forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane keep assist, and adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go functionality. Active Driving Assist, which pairs automated lane centring with adaptive cruise control for highway driving, is also standard.
• Starting price: Pricing starts at $42,390 for the base model.

If you're buying used today, the 2020 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the latest tech and features, it may be worth waiting for the next model year's inventory to build up.
