Jeep is looking to appeal to gadget fans with a
special edition version of the 2018 Cherokee featuring a new Tech Connect
Package. In this flavor, the compact SUV comes with Uconnect for Amazon Alexa,
thus allowing owners to make voice-activated requests, with commands that can
start the engine, lock and unlock the doors, send navigation instructions, and
check the fuel and tire pressure levels.
Additionally, by purchasing the 2018 Jeep Cherokee
Latitude with the Tech Connect Package, owners will also get an Amazon Echo
Dot, in addition to 3-month subscriptions to Amazon Music Unlimited Family Plan
and Audible.
Moreover, it also gets the larger 8.4-inch
infotainment system with 3G connectivity, one-year Sirius XM satellite radio
subscription, Premium Audio Group, and rear backup assist, among others. In addition to the equipment upgrades, the 2018
Jeep Cherokee Latitude with Tech Connect Package also gets gloss black finishes
on the chin appliqué, upper and lower grille surround, roof rails, and badging,
Diamond Black Crystal-painted lower cladding, and 18-inch aluminum wheels.
The first units of the Jeep Cherokee Latitude
with Tech Connect Package will arrive in showrooms nationwide in November.
Prices start from US$ 26,190 for the 2WD models, and US$ 27,690 for the 4WD versions,
plus a US$ 1,095 destination charge.
