Being behind the wheel, driving position feels very high, partly because of the height of the mo b il under normal conditions (normal ride height) reached 217 mm. This causes driving the Grand Cherokee in the middle of the traffic density was superior. Gas pedal feels solid, although arguably not light, but it evokes good response to accelerate.
When entering a freeway, driving feels so precision. At speeds above 85 kph, the Quadra-Lift air suspension automatically lowers the vehicle height of 15 mm from the normal condition in order to create value aerodynamics for better car control. The height of the so-called aero mode also helps to streamline the use of fuel. One of the safety features on the Grand Cherokee that you should try when driving on the freeway is the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC).
Enable ACC via a button on the steering wheel right, and set the desired speed to roam. ACC will automatically maintain a safe distance with the car in front, according to the specified speed. This makes the driver did not have to step on the gas pedal and the brake. because when the car in front slows down or there is a car that cut lanes in front of him, it will automatically feature will intervene Forward Collision Warning and Brake warns the driver to step on the brake if needed. This feature increases the awareness of safe distance to the car in front.

The features automatically adjust to the terrain needs to be bypassed. height of the car can even be increased up to 282.5 mm from ground level.
One thing that can not be avoided when driving is the fuel consumption is quite wasteful. With the Eco mode is active all the time though, the average fuel consumption that was recorded in the most-efficient Multi Information Display only reached 8.7 kpl. While testing along with terrain and traffic combination, achieving an average fuel consumption of 7.6 MPA.
