I have a 2022 Grand Cherokee 4XE Base model. In one year I spent $300 dollars for gas. I was spending that much per month with my previous car. I am averaging $30 a month to charge at home with a level 2 charger. I love it.
@@mo87256 Ours was brand new and we got in in October. That first week we had it, the hybrid to ICE stopped working even when on a full charge. It had multiple weird electrical issues and they couldn’t solve them in the service dept. Lastly, the truck goes into FORM all the time which prevents you from using the electric mode is the vehicle things the oil and fuel is going stale. I broke the lease for her and had to pay so much since the truck depreciation is so high. I ended up laying out 6500 to get out of it. On my way to drop it off at the dealership, the infotainment scream glitches and turns off and the instrument cluster above the wheel craps out too. It also said for about the last week we had it that we had a 700 mile range in fuel when we were on a quarter of a tank and no charge. I’m happy its gone and we got into a brand new X4 which is what she wanted to begin with but nothing was available at the time.
2.5 hour charge time is far too long. I have heard that the hybrid Jeep does not keep the AIr conditioning running or on when switching from hybrid to gas. Is this true ?
If you have it in E Save it will charge itself, you just drive it. The motor alone eats gas man! If you have a heavy foot...keep it in sport mode lol. All in all...I like it.
You can adjust the seat forward and back using one of the buttons on the side, it’s the first button and you can adjust it vertical for up and down and horizontal for forward and backwards
We have the Pinnacle Hybrid and my wife loves it. It almost made me swap my Jeep for the Rubicon 4xe. I have the 3.6L with eTorque and decided against it. The way my wife uses it - we went almost 2500 miles before our first fill up. We also did have the 50 amp outlet installed for the fast charger. That made a HUGE difference. She's able to drop the kids off all the way across town in the morning, charge it all the way, and pick them up from school across town at 3:00. It only takes about 2.5 hours to fully charge with the fast charger. You know, the crazy thing is - that Pinnacle Hybrid has more features and we only paid $58k for the van (compared to this $70k Jeep). The other thing that I learned after the fact. Is if you make too much money (and its actually not that much tbh) you don't qualify for federal tax rebates. So in other words, the people that can actually afford this shit don't get the tax rebate. And keep in mind, I think the cutoff for the tax rebates is around $150k. One of the main reasons I didn't get the Jeep 4xe. We traded in and put a little cash and only did a loan for $10k on the van. I thought I was basically going to pay it off at tax time next year. Not so fast, Keith. Anyway, thanks for showing these. They've been giving me Cherokees as loaners when I take my Ram 2500 in for all the damn recalls it had.
