2022 Jeep Cherokee
Some ratings use a scale of Poor to Good. Others range from Basic to Superior.
Small overlap front: driver-side
Rating applies to 2019-23 models built after April 2018
Tested vehicle: 2019 Jeep Cherokee Latitude 4-door 4wd
The Jeep Cherokee was re-engineered and restyled for the 2019 model year. Beginning with the 2019 model year, the A-pillars, front door hinge pillars, and door sills were modified to improve occupant protection in moderate overlap and small overlap frontal crashes.
Beginning with 2019 models built after April 2018, the driver seat belt was modified to further improve protection in small overlap frontal crashes. (Information about when a specific vehicle was manufactured is on the certification label typically affixed to the car on the driver door or adjacent B-pillar.)
Action shot taken during the driver-side small overlap frontal crash test.
The dummy’s position in relation to the door frame, steering wheel, and instrument panel after the crash test indicates that the driver’s survival space was maintained very well.
The frontal and side curtain airbags worked well together to keep the head from coming close to any stiff structure or outside objects that could cause injury.
The driver’s space was maintained well, and risk of injuries to the dummy’s legs and feet was low.

The passenger compartment of the Jeep Grand Cherokee remained stable in the frontal offset test. Protection was good for all critical body areas of both the driver and passenger. Jeep demonstrated that good protection would also be provided to the knees and femurs of occupants of different sizes and to those sitting in different positions. Analysis of the deceleration of the impact trolley during the test, and analysis of the deformable barrier after the test, revealed that the car would be an aggressive partner in a frontal collision and it was penalised accordingly. In the full-width rigid barrier test, protection of the chest of the rear passenger was marginal, based on dummy readings of chest compression. Otherwise, protection was good or adequate for both occupants. In both the side barrier and side pole tests, all critical body areas were well protected and the Grand Cherokee scored maximum points in this part of the assessment. Control of excursion (the extent to which a body is thrown to the other side of the vehicle when it is hit from the far side) was poor. The Grand Cherokee does not have a counter-measure to mitigate against occupant to occupant injuries in such impacts. Tests on the front seats and head restraints demonstrated marginal protection against whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision. A geometric analysis of the rear seats indicated good whiplash protection. The Grand Cherokee has an advanced eCall system which alerts the emergency services in the event but lacks a system to prevent secondary collisions.

The passenger compartment remained stable in the frontal impact. Dummy readings indicated good protection of the knees and femurs of both the driver and passenger. Jeep showed that a similar level of protection would be provided to occupants of different sizes and to those sat in different positions. In the side impact barrier test, the Cherokee scored maximum points with good protection of all body regions. In the more severe side impact pole test, protection of the chest was adequate and that of other body regions was good. The seats and head restraints provided marginal protection against whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision.

Based on dummy readings in the dynamic tests, the Cherokee scored maximum points for its protection of both the 3 year and the 1½ year infants. Forward movement of the 3 year dummy, sat in a forward-facing restraint, was not excessive and, in the side impact, both dummies were properly contained within the protective shells of their restraints, minmising the likelihood of dangerous head contact with parts of the car interior. The airbag for the front passenger seat cannot be disabled so a rearward-facing child restraint should not be used in that seating position. The labels warning of the dangers of doing so were not permanently attached to the sun visor, so did not meet Euro NCAP’s requirements. All the types of child restraints for which the car is designed could be properly installed and accommodated in the vehicle.
