No worry about lost power - the new engine produces more horsepower on less fuel. The Limited is meant to take on the best of the world's luxury sport-utes on and especially off the road. It has all of the creature comforts expected in a luxury sedan. A '99 Grand Cherokee Limited with the V8 engine and Quadra- Drive II 4WD system has been my transportation for the past week. It's roomier than the previous Grand Cherokee but still small enough outside to park easily.
Access is easy, and it is nearly as comfortable on the road as a luxury sedan.
The benchmark has just gotten better. From a distance, the new Grand Cherokee looks much like last year's version. Closer inspection shows otherwise. Although the styling is an evolutionary development of that of the original Grand Cherokee, the newest Jeep is a touch larger and much more convexly rounded. The windshield is more sloped, and there is a pronounced arch to the roofline.
