Helping You Find Your Jeep Cherokee Online: Some Tips

Since 1974, Jeep has manufactured the Jeep Cherokee. It has gone through a wide range of class changes from a full-size SUV to the compact crossover SUV that represents its latest models. When it comes to finding a Jeep Cherokee on eBay, you can follow these tips to make the search easier for you.

How do you select a Jeep Cherokee?

When looking for a Cherokee online, you should consider this information in your search:

  • Mileage: When looking at a vehicle, lower mileage Jeep Cherokee SUVs may cost more than higher-mileage models. Higher mileage Cherokees, on the other hand, may be due for scheduled maintenance sooner than lower-mileage selections.
  • Drivetrain: You can choose between 4WD and 2WD models of the Jeep Cherokee. 4WD models may provide more traction than 2WD models of the Cherokee but aren’t as fuel-efficient as 2WD models.
  • Model year: There are currently five generations of the Jeep Cherokee. The model year and generation of the Jeep Cherokee will have an impact of the vehicle class, engine size, and drivetrain, along with features.
  • Condition: Some listings will describe if any components of the Jeep Cherokee have been recently replaced or repaired. Take a look at the photos on the listing to see if there are signs of damage or wear, such as rust.
Some of the Jeep Cherokee models available

The Jeep Cherokee is split across five generations that affect the class, features, and interior/exterior options:

  • Jeep Cherokee SJ: The original Jeep Cherokee was based on the style of the two-door Jeep Wagoneer. Some of the trim levels on this generation included the Golden Eagle, Limited, Sport, Pioneer, and Laredo. This model was produced between 1974 and 1983.
  • Jeep Cherokee XJ: When looking for a Jeep Cherokee XJ, you can choose between manual and automatic transmissions depending on the model year. There are four-cylinder and V6 engines on the different model years. This is also the first generation to include 4x4 drivetrains.
What are some features to consider when selecting Cherokee?

On newer models of the Jeep Cherokee, there are infotainment systems and driver-assist technologies built-in to make your drive more comfortable. Depending on your driving needs, you may want to look at Jeep Cherokee models that have off-roading features such as off-road tires, 4WD, and improved suspension systems.
