Among all the numerous new 2014 Jeep(registered company) Grand Cherokee features, 2 in particular bring to greatly improved fuel economy and driving performance: a brand new, clean, 3.0liter EcoDiesel V-6 engine plus a fresh eightspeed automatic transmission.

The end result: Jeep has had the most gave SUV in history and lifted the standard even farther, attaining fuel economy as much as 30 miles per gallon (mpg) in EcoDiesel kind, and improved fuel economy, drivability and general performance on the other side of the Grand Cherokee line.

"The clean 3.0liter V-6 diesel engine in conjunction with the 8-speed transmission meets the demanding Jeep customer requirements by giving an extraordinary blend of high torque on the other side of the rpm range and excellent fuel economy."

Jeep Grand Cherokee's new 3.0liter EcoDiesel V-6 engine is anticipated to reach 30 mpg highway using a driving range in excess of 730 miles. The awardwinning Pentastar V-6 engine provides 25 mpg, with a best-in-group selection in excess of 600 miles. And also the celebrated 5.7liter V-8's fuel economy improves 5 per cent, now attaining 21 mpg.

Allnew clean 3.0liter EcoDiesel V-6 engine

Enthusiasts in United States have already been clamoring for a dieselpowered Grand Cherokee and Jeep has delivered. Creating a category-top 240 hp and enormous 420 lb.ft. of torque, the 3.0liter EcoDiesel is effective at towing 7,400 pounds - a lot more than any competitor's V-8 equipped SUVs.

The brand new, 50state legal, clean 3.0liter EcoDiesel engine creates low CO2 emissions. Multi-jet II commonrail injection and Selective Catalyst Reduction (SCR) help this engine reach these results.

The 24valve, double - overheadcam engine includes a bed and block plate constructed from powerful compacted graphite iron (CGI), which leads to rigidity without penalizing performance.

The clean 3.0liter EcoDiesel's 60degree cylinder banks enable more effective packaging, while effectively balancing the powerful inertia generated by torquerich diesels.

Driver and passengers equally can anticipate a smooth, quiet ride on any journey. The brand new engine's 1-4-2-5-3-6 firing order helps manage spinning so neatly it requires no balance shaft to produce the amount of refinement that the Grand Cherokee is famous.

Further adding to quieter operation, along with best fuel economy and emissions reduction, may be the clean diesel's commonrail fuelinjection system.

Swirl-control intake ports reap the benefits of a variablegeometry turbocharger and intercooler that ensure the necessary engine result, whether merging onroad or surging offroad.

Temperature extremes will also be addressed. The brand new engine's turbo is watercooled to manage searing heat, while lowvoltage ceramic glow plugs accommodate faster coldweather begins.

Allnew eightspeed transmission

Another advantage is a lower crawl ratio of 44.1:1 to help in climbing over - or through - demanding challenges when equipped with a 2-speed transfer case. This really is a 46 percent improvement on the last version's crawl ratio.

"The 8-speed transmission - with an extensive ratio spread, high numeric firstgear ratio, fast shifting and competitive torqueconverter lockup - is a leading contributor to meeting the Grand Cherokee's challenging performance goals," said Mircea Gradu, Vice President and Head of Transmission Powertrain and Driveline Engineering.

Robust enough to adapt the Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel's prodigious torque, the new-for-2014 gearbox provides not only the assurance of durability, but its exact shift program improves ride quality to luxurycar amounts.

Fully electronic, the 8-speed automatic features on-the-fly shift map changing, with manual shifting ability and Electronic Range Select using steeringwheel paddle controls. More than 40 individual shift maps for particular conditions optimize shift points and shift quality for performance, fuel economy and drivability. The intelligent applications takes into account variables including kickdown events, engine torque gradients, longitudinal and lateral acceleration, level changes, friction detection and downshift detection to ascertain the proper shift map. Additional parameters incorporated into the management strategy include electronic stability control interaction, vehicle speed control and temperature.

Wide ratio spread and the transmission efficiency supply the perfect fuel economy by functioning at a lower engine rpm in both city and highway environments. The inclusion of more gear ratios also helps reduce the gaps generally related to downshifting and upshifting.

Gear changes are almost imperceptible because of the equally spaced gear steps between each gear ratio. Internally, the transmission has five shift elements and four gear sets (multi - disk clutches and brakes). Only 2 shift elements are open at any given moment. With fewer open shift elements, drag losses because of multiple components rotating relative to each other are reduced, improving fuel economy.

Awardwinning 3.6liter Pentastar V-6 engine

The conventional flexfuel 3.6liter Pentastar V-6 engine produces 290 hp and 260 lb.ft. of torque. Along with the new eightspeed transmission, Pentastar-equipped Grand Cherokees now have the ability to tow 6,200 pounds, a 24 percent increase on the preceding year. The transmission also assists the V - 6 models to reach 17 mpg city and 25 mpg highway on 4x4 and 4x2 models. This enables the Grand Cherokee to have best-in-type driving range of more than 600 miles for petrol-powered SUVs.

Grand Cherokee's 3.6liter V-6 engine features a doubleoverhead cam (DOHC) and highflow intake and exhaust ports, which in conjunction with variable valve timing (VVT) via double independent cam phasing, enable optimum volumetric and combustion efficiency over the total rate and load range. This results within an exceptional, flat torque curve together with high specific power.

Structural, intake and exhaust regions of the 3.6liter V-6 engine are made to deliver low amounts of general sound and attain specific sound quality targets that fulfill discerning customer requirements.

Using a highenergy coilon plus longlife spark plugs - plug ignition system also assists reduce cost of ownership.

Recognized 5.7liter V-8 engine

Fuel economy improvements aren't exclusive to Jeep Grand Cherokee's V-6 powertrains.

The 5.7liter engine's VVT enhances fuel economy in two ways. First, it lowers the engine's pumping work by shutting the intake valve after. Second, it raises the growth procedure of the combustion event. This enables more work to be used in the crankshaft instead of being rejected outside of the exhaust port as heat.

The 5.7liter engine's Fuel Saver Technology with cylinderdeactivation seamlessly alternates between smooth, highfuel-economy fourcylinder mode when less power is desired and V-8 mode when more power is in demand. This optimizes fuel economy when V-8 power is not needed, without sacrificing vehicle operation or ability.

Fuel efficiency is further improved by eco Mode

The 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee includes a fresh Eco Mode that leads to its improved fuel economy. Eco Mode optimizes the Grand Cherokee transmission's shift program and - in V-8 versions - Fuel Saver Technology with cylinder deactivation in addition to accelerator sensitivity to optimize fuel economy. The Eco Mode also manages interactive deceleration fuel shutoff (IDFSO), which cuts fuel delivery once the automobile is coasting to lessen fuel consumption.

A button to the center stack enables driver's to disengage Eco Mode if more energetic performance is desired.
