HEATED SEATS, HEATED WHEEL, REMOTE START, BLIND SPOT, ADAPTIVE CRUISE, FORWARD COLLISION BRAKING A compact Jeep has to fit a Portage driveway and still get you through a January morning. The Jeep Cherokee Laredo is sized for the first and equipped for the second. Finished in Bright White, it has the kind of colour that still looks sharp after a week of winter driving. The 4x4 is not a nice to have in this province, it is the point, and this unit carries it. Underneath the comfort it carries Selec-Terrain traction management, which dials the 4x4 in for surfaces like snow, sand, mud or rock and a windshield wiper de icer. Where it counts for winter, the interior brings heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and remote start. After one cold snap you stop thinking of them as extras. The cabin keeps up on tech, bringing Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a large touchscreen, and Uconnect 5 so the daily stuff is one tap away instead of buried in a menu. The driver assistance kit is genuinely well stocked: Blind Spot Monitoring, Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop and Go, Forward Collision Warning with active braking, and Active Lane Management. The drivetrain pairs a 1.6L turbocharged hybrid four cylinder with an automatic transmission. If you tend to keep a vehicle, the coverage matters: this Jeep carries Jeep Canada's 5 year or 100,000 kilometre powertrain warranty, so the major hardware is protected long after the payments end. All told, this is a lot of vehicle for the money, and it is ready to go. Book a test drive at Dunn Ram Trucks in Portage la Prairie, a straight hour from Winnipeg. Financing and preapproval can be arranged, and if you cannot make the trip we deliver. Price is plus applicable taxes. Manitoba Dealer Permit# 4941
