Jeep Grand Cherokee a Consumers Digest Best Buy
Earlier this year, Consumer Reports gave a harsh review of all Fiat Chrysler Auto brands, with four vehicles topping the “Vehicles to Avoid” list in 2014. Now, Consumers Digest has deemed seven FCA vehicles worthy of a “Best Buy,” including the Jeep Grand Cherokee.
Consumers Digest selects “Best Buys” by identifying vehicles that deliver the most value for the money within their segment; value is determined by purchase price and ownership costs as well as comfort, performance, and utility, among other factors. The automotive editors at Consumers Digest drive “Best Buy” contenders in a range of circumstances and conditions to evaluate vehicle characteristics such as acceleration, ride quality, fuel economy, fit and finish, styling, and interior ergonomics.
For 2014, the Jeep Grand Cherokee won the “Best Buy” honor in the Midsize SUV. It joins the Chrysler Town & Country, Dodge Durango, Dodge Grand Caravan, Fiat 500, Chrysler 200, and Ram 1500 as FCA “Best Buy” brands.
