One of the differences between the Jeep Cherokee and the Honda CR-V is its price. The Honda CR-V begins at just $25,050 MSRP, while the Jeep Cherokee begins at $25,840 MSRP* This price difference may seem minimal, but drivers are getting more standard features from the base level of the Jeep Cherokee than they are the Honda CR-V. Driver-assist safety features like Blind Spot Monitoring and Rear Cross Detection along with performance features like the Jeep Active Drive make the Jeep Cherokee the ideal vehicle for your budget. If you’re looking for a vehicle strictly for your Astoria commute, the Honda CR-V will suit you fine, but if you’re looking for a vehicle that will challenge you to go further, then the Jeep Cherokee is the car for you.
Comparing the performance of the Jeep Cherokee vs the Honda CR-V begins with their engines. The Honda CR-V comes with a 1.5L 4-cylinder engine that has 28 mpg city/34 mpg highway EPA-estimated fuel economy, while the Jeep Cherokee model’s 2.4L 4-cylinder engine offers an EPA-estimated fuel efficiency rating of 26 mpg city/31 mpg highway. While the Cherokee does have a slightly lower fuel economy, it does boast a larger engine, more towing power, and is equipped with the legendary Jeep 4×4 system and the Jeep Cherokee drivetrain to take you to places you’ve only dreamed of. The CR-V has a 1,500-pound towing capacity while the Cherokee comes with a 2,000-pound base towing capacity. The Jeep Cherokee also has the option for Long Island City drivers to upgrade their engine and drivetrain so the Cherokee can tow up to 4,500-pounds, while the Honda CR-V towing capacity cannot be upgraded. If you’re looking for extra power and a dependable 4×4 system that can take you into the great unknown, then the Jeep Cherokee is the vehicle for you.
