2014 Jeep Patriot near Phoenix AZ

The 2014 Jeep Patriot benefits from some great revisions for the model year. The 2014 Jeep Patriot compact crossover utility will offers a compact, lightweight 6 speed automatic transmission for the first time, which will replace the previously standard Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT). These are generally more fuel efficient than conventional automatics. If you are on the market for a used SUV, then look no further than Earnhardt Jeep for a used Jeep Patriot.

2014 Patriot Power & Handling

It would be wise to not take the Patriot's styling as just a ruse. The Patriot comes with three different drive systems: a front wheel drive. If you have to navigate through snowy winters, or steep gravel and muddy trails to get to the campsite, you will want the available Freedom Drive I - an all wheel drive, with a locking center differential. If you will be taking tougher forest trails and real off road conditions, we suggest you move up to the Freedom Drive II system, which is a hardier system up to the task. You will get the full-on 'Trail-Rated' badge?including additional skid plates and other upgrades.

For 2014 Jeep added the PowerTech 6F24 six-speed automatic to the option list for all three Jeep models. This replaced the deeply disliked continuously variable transmission. It matches the six-speed to the carry-over 2.0- and 2.4-liter four-cylinders. Output for those inline-fours are 158 hp and 141 lb-ft or 172 hp and 165 lb-ft.

2014 Jeep Patriot Interior

When you first look at the Patriot's interior, it has a nice enough design, even if it might be a little utilitarian. With closer examination, however, the extensive use of easy to clean plastics in the off road style make the interior feel quite comfortable. The front seats are quite comfortable and the rear seat legroom is good in the outboard seats.

Standard features on the Jeep Patriot Sport include nice front seat mounted side air bags, electronic stability control with roll mitigation, Hill-start Assist, anti-lock brakes, fog lamps, a 60/40 fold flat rear seat, a rear window wiper, a tilt steering column, cruise control, illuminated cup holders and a removable and rechargeable flashlight.

 

Conclusions

The Patriot is a compact sport utility vehicle featuring classic Jeep styling in an affordable package. While it will spend most the time on city streets, the Jeep Patriot includes features that provide it with unparalleled off-road capability.
