I’m loving this concept and I do really like a Jeep (owned 2) BUT I’m also a person who keeps a vehicle for 10 plus years and 150k miles easy and the history, longevity and maintenance of these vehicles are still in the gray area..I just can’t pull the lever on the concept without the long term stats. ❤ the video, great info.
I had this on my list for my next car, but kicked it out. The electric only range is way too low compared to all the competitors. 28 miles was a decent average for phevs 5 or so years ago, but today's average is 40 miles.
I find it fascinating how different the expectations/opinions are between Australia and the US. I recently watched an Australian review of the top level trim Grand Cherokee L that’s offered there. It was just over $105k which is around $72k here. They repeatedly commented how the interior quality was nowhere near what’s expected in a vehicle of that price. It was average quality at best. Yet…you watch the vast majority of reviews from the US(including this one) and they gush and swoon over Jeep’s quality. I’m not sure if it’s a bias towards Jeep in the US or a bias against Jeep(and American products in general after what happened with GM and Holden) that’s the cause of the huge variations.
I'm not sure how reliable the 4xe but it drives awesome. Jeep did a great job on this one. The only thing that bothers me is that the car looks a bit boring. It's handsome inside and out but still the outside is a bit boring.
I REALLYlike almost everything Jeep makes and can afford most of them. I wont go near them because in my opinion, the price is 20% too high for the value or my fondness. They are not prices where I would just swallow it and pay the premium like I did on my Cayman. They are in the crazy, stupid, insulting level of pricing.
What GMC wants for their highest end Yukons is stupid money. 99K is simply ridiculous when a Denali can be had with most of the features for mid-upper 70s. But even those prices are obscene, and not being discounted. And this is coming from a GM truck/SUV owner since 1981(two K-Blazers and a Yukon).
Question: Can you control the rear AC from the front? If so, the driver might be able to moderate the cabin temp indirectly and not rely on the hurricane in the front. I'll be scoping these out around Labor Day. If I can get a Summit for 62 or so, I may jump on it instead of getting a replacement Yukon. GM isn't discounting, and their large SUVs have gotten a little bigger than my wife and I need (compared to my 2001 Yukon).
Kirk, I can totally relate to not having enough fan speeds! One of the (few) great things about our 22 year-old Suburban is that there are probably 15 fan speeds. I *love* it! As for the rest of the truck, that's why I follow you (to find a unibody 3-row replacement)!!!
@@chezzyperson3339 not quite. The cx70 / 90 don’t have massaging seats, passenger seat memory, 4 zone climate control, leather wrapped door panels top to bottom.
Nobody is paying full MSRP for these. I just got a Summit Reserve 4xe and was able to get $20,000 off due to tax incentive, discounts and rebates and at less than $900/month on a lease, it's a steal.
pressroom.lexus.com/vehicle/2023-lexus-rx-450h/ I found it here. but it probably will be pushed to a later date. They might even wait until batteries roll out of North Carolina as this rate.
Yes, finally, someone is talking about how dumb the screen is on the passenger side. Aren't passengers already distracted enough? Why add another screen inches away from the center console. It's a waste of resources & it looks tacky on most vehicles. I hate the hyper-screen from MB & the new Nautilus has done the same thing. It's overwhelming.
I just bought new Grand Cherokee Summit. same color has this. Im 90% haapy but only 23/24 models doen't have hold breake button. Me and dealer serach is two days. He can't even order new one with button on it... The 2022 summit which I test drive has one... WTF JEEP
Another bummer with the 4xe is that they were given a 7500 fed kiss until mid April. Now it's 3500. Jeep will have to make up the difference to continue to sell them.
@@ktpinnacle If you want to buy it, you don't have to wait 'til the end of the lease. On the lease, the $7,500 will be applied as an immediate cap cost reduction and the incentives tend to be higher on CCAP's leases, too. Compared to financing, you will save $$ for sure since the current MF CCAP is offering equals an APR of about 4%. Hard to get these days when financing. Also, if you buy out the lease at any time, excess mileage does not come into play.
I think the grand Highlander stole its thunder and its name. Everybody wants more value these days. You can hang your hat on Toyota quality and not Jeep.
People (I don't mean you) are so superficial. What is the point of having a white car if the roof is black? The roof is literally what heats up the most.
Because it's way cheaper. If you get a fully loaded $87k 4xe, you pay $900/month on a lease. If you get a fully loaded X5 50e for $91k, your lease will be $1,400/month.
Here's the Level 2 (nema 10-30) I used to charge the 4XE : amzn.to/43MKEno
Here's another that might work with your socket: amzn.to/42K1ou3

im leasing one for that reason and i love it
Said this last time, saying it again...night review? Genius! 👍
Love this. Thank you! I love having the night review.
I had this on my list for my next car, but kicked it out. The electric only range is way too low compared to all the competitors. 28 miles was a decent average for phevs 5 or so years ago, but today's average is 40 miles.
90% of commutes are between 1 and 30 miles, so that 28 mile electric range is just right.
28 mi is plenty. It will decimate your gasoline buying
What are your options?

Not sure mate.
There is more hard plastic in the lower end Cherokees. That might be the gripe.
I paid 41k for my 4XE base (limited trim). there are deals out there and its a great car. absolutely love mine
what kind of MPG are you having? Any issues?
Hold out for lexus gx or buy 2023 4xe trail hawk for $8k off at end of year?

You are wrong. These compare directly to higher prices SUVs like the Lincoln Aviator

Does it have approach lighting?
Like your night spins.
This shows the grand Cherokee is one of the best luxury SUVs
Jeep Grand Cherokee/L Mazda CX70 and CX90 are pretty similar right now in terms of equipment and pricing but Mazda is built much better

FACTS!

Real big news is that Stellantis will only let dealers in 14 States sell 4e Wranglers!!!
YES i just mentioned this in my video coming tonight stay tuned!
So talking about plug in hybrids.. has there been any news on the possible cancellation of the RX 450H+? It’s no longer on the Lexus website.
It’s probably not coming to the USA.
Maybe because the 450h+ will be a 2024 model year vehicle.
@@naveenthemachine then they should build it in Canada
@@chezzyperson3339 it’s being built in japan

Nice 4-way stop there! - good review tho
Wondering just how many states will only allow Jeep 4Xe vehicles to be sold. These are also out of line for pricing.
Kirk good thing your reviewing not a Toyota. Which is your pick between MDX type S VS Jeep summit 4xe ? Thank you 🙏
MDX type S. But if you can get a 4xe for 60k or less then that would be great
The IIHS crash test results though 😵
Kirk will be attending the CX70 reveal event
I don't know about it. If you know something hit me up on Insta :)
I just bought new Grand Cherokee Summit. same color has this.
Im 90% haapy but only 23/24 models doen't have hold breake button.

The 2022 summit which I test drive has one... WTF JEEP
What is that website you use to check available cars for sale?
Cars.com ...wish I was sponsored
I hope it's not part of the 330k jeep recall that just happened??
Awesome
Stellantis greedy , price too high $$
You're hilarious! This vehicle rivals the best luxury SUVs on the market today! It compares directly with the $100,000 Lincoln Aviator
@@darrelwhite2649 Aviator 😵😆 Ford POS
Tahoe or Suburban best $ can buy and longest lasting but new crown to Toyota Landcruiser to come
Another bummer with the 4xe is that they were given a 7500 fed kiss until mid April. Now it's 3500. Jeep will have to make up the difference to continue to sell them.
If you still want the full $7,500 (plus whatever CCAP is adding), lease it first and buy it out later.
@@FloridaWildlife1 Depends on the mileage demands, excess mileage costs and what the final buyout cost would be.

The Grand Cherokee has always been an expensive vehicle, especially when start checking more option boxes.
Didn't they just recall hundreds of thousands of Jeep GC a week ago due to the spring might fall off while moving? LOL!
Yeah. Luckily it doesn't include those with the ride height control
I think the grand Highlander stole its thunder and its name. Everybody wants more value these days. You can hang your hat on Toyota quality and not Jeep.
Jeep is more luxurious than Mazda and has better brand recognition so can charge higher prices.
I wan tto love this but for that money , that's X5 50e tier

Canyonero!
28 miles of ev range while it drives lol.
Oh common, it`s still a jeep which is short for junk and they still over price it by 80%.
Wouldn’t touch this with a ten foot pole. Money pit waiting to implode.
Love you Kirk but why you reviewing trash brands like Jeep... 😂
Not worth the price. Their reliability is complete trash. And their service department don’t fix your car only Patch it up.
This is ridiculous because price makes no freakin sense. Why would you get this over an X5?
Because it's way cheaper. If you get a fully loaded $87k 4xe, you pay $900/month on a lease. If you get a fully loaded X5 50e for $91k, your lease will be $1,400/month.
