This is one of the nicest compact SUVs on the market, but also one that is most forgotten (133 sales in 2009) and Jeep take the approach of some great shows to unveil the restyled version of this SUV along 4.40 m
The Jeep designers have mostly reworked the rear bumper spoiler, giving it a more "adventurer" owing mainly to the fact that the bottom of said bumper is plastic raw (less fragile than the painted version), available at the new Central Fog, somewhat in the spirit of what is available on the Wrangler. All round box is now protected by a black patch that boosts a little line of SUVs.
The Jeep engineers seems he did a great job at the undercarriage and the quality of the road holding of the Patriot is said to be more precise, more dynamic because of its new suspension but also a direction recalibrated . The Jeep Patriot also benefits from a new palette of colors and a new range of alloy wheels in 17 inches. The system "Hill Control" for the descent of the Patriot comes as a further multiplication of the BVM and the possibility to leave the couple to 50/50 front and rear.
Another novelty is to be found in the cockpit that offers us a new dashboard, with plastics more opulent, and rounding a more flattering look for passengers. The driver will find pleasure in a nice three-spoke multifunction steering wheel to replace the current model easily worthy of a Chrysler in the early 90's!
In terms of news, we find a cruise control, new seats that finally seem comfortable
