THREE AVAILABLE SYSTEMS FOR ANY OCCASION

JEEP® ACTIVE 4X4 DRIVE I SYSTEM

Jeep Active Drive I features a single power transfer unit (PTU) which is fully automatic and delivers seamless operation in and out of four-wheel drive at any speed. The system does not require any driver intervention or feedback and is ideal for those who want an SUV with an all-weather-capable 4x4 system that is easy to use. Jeep Active Drive I offers balanced torque distribution with brake traction control. The four-wheel-drive performance results from a fully variable wet clutch housed in the rear drive module. The clutch supplies the proper amount of torque for any driving condition, including slippery conditions, aggressive starts and dynamic driving. Sophisticated algorithms enable the system to contribute to the driving dynamics while interacting with the electronic stability control (ESC) system when approaching the traction limits of the road surface.The rear axle disconnect feature only engages the 4x4 system when necessary for improved fuel efficiency.

JEEP® ACTIVE DRIVE II 4X4 SYSTEM

The Jeep® Active Drive II 4x4 system with low-range is great for extra low-speed traction. It also has a neutral mode for flat towing behind an Recreational Vehicle.

JEEP® ACTIVE DRIVE LOCK 4X4 SYSTEM

Jeep® Cherokee Trailhawk® and its standard Trail Rated® Active Drive Lock 4x4 system provides exceptional 4x4 capability. Jeep Active Drive Lock includes II includes a two-speed PTU with torque management and low range and adds a locking rear differential to provide increased low-speed power when driving over extreme off-road trails. In the 4-Low mode, the system locks the front and rear drive shafts to ensure more power at low speeds and greater towing capability. Low range provides a 2.92:1 gear reduction that enhances climbing ability and offers outstanding crawl ratios for severe off-road conditions. The locking rear differential is selectable in any low-range terrain mode, but will lock automatically when in certain modes, such as “Rock,” to maximize tractive effort, which the tire patch can support. Jeep Active Drive Lock is standard on all Trailhawk models.

SELEC-TERRAIN® TRACTION CONTROL

All the 4x4 systems of the Jeep Cherokee feature the Jeep brand’s renowned Selec-Terrain traction control system with four modes (five for the Trailhawk model, which adds the Rock mode to Auto, Snow, Sport and Sand/Mud). Selec-Terrain allows the driver, with a push of a button on the Selec-Terrain dial, to choose the on- and off-road setting best suited for optimum performance on any particular surface and is designed to optimize the four-wheel-drive systems for unsurpassed control and capability. Selec-Terrain electronically coordinates and optimizes up to 12 systems on any terrain providing enhanced vehicle control, including: drivetrain control module, electronic brake controller, ESC, transmission controller, powertrain controller and Selec-Speed Control (Hill-ascent and Hill-descent Control).

REAR AXLE DISCONNECT

The new Jeep® Cherokee is also the first mid-size SUV to feature rear-axle disconnect, resulting in reduced energy loss when 4x4 capability isn’t needed and improving fuel efficiency. The rear-axle disconnect seamlessly switches between two- and four-wheel drive for full-time torque management and does not require input from the driver.
