Jeep Grand Cherokee 2011 Bahrain Prices & Specs

The 5-seater Jeep Grand Cherokee, redesigned for 2011, firmly moves up one level in this iteration, with a new-found emphasis on quality. Offered with a choice of a new 3.6-litre "Pentastar" V6 or an upgraded 5.7-litre "Hemi" V8, both come with a 5-speed automatic, four-wheel-drive with low-range and three trim levels. By 2012, the 5.7-litre models got a 6-speed automatic. The base Laredo is V6 only, the Limited can be V6 or V8, and the Overland is V8 only. An SRT8 version debuted for 2012 with a 6.4-litre V8, 5-speed automatic and all-wheel-drive with no low-range. For non-SRT versions, depending on trim level, there is a choice of two 4x4 systems, new Quadra-Lift air suspension on the Overland, and a new Selec-Terrain system with crawl control. The all-new Mercedes-Benz-derived platform has independent front and rear suspension, stiffer new body structure and more space. Even the Laredo is well-equipped, with body-colour bumpers, 17-inch or 18-inch alloy wheels, power driver's seat, dual-zone manual a/c, keyless start, CD/MP3 stereo, cloth upholstery, HID automatic headlights, fog lamps, and the usual power accessories. The Limited adds leather, Alpine premium audio, automatic a/c, panoramic roof, 18-inch wheels, rain-sensing wipers, navigation, 30GB hard drive and UConnect Bluetooth phone. The Overland adds real leather, real wood trim, stitched-leather dash trim, ventilated power-adjustable front seats, 9-speaker audio with subwoofer and 20-inch wheels, with various options and accessories available. The SRT8 version gets a unique body kit, sports suspension, sports seats and other trim bits. Safety features available include standard active head restraints, front airbags, full-length side-curtain and seat-mounted side airbags, stability control, electronic roll mitigation, hill-start assist and optional trailer-sway control. An optional blind-spot/rear cross-path detection system and adaptive cruise control with forward collision warning are also available.
