According to a press release issued earlier today by FCA US LLC, the Jeep Grand Cherokee - the most awarded SUV in history - was recently named a segment winner in AutoPacific's Ideal Vehicle Awards. In regards to meeting or exceeding customer standards, Grand Cherokee led all vehicles in its category to earn the title of "Most Ideal Mid-Size SUV."
The annual awards are based on the results of survey responses from over 65,000 new-car purchasers or lessees after the first 90 days of ownership. Respondents were asked what changes they would make to their car or truck in 15 categories, including performance, technology, safety features, ride quality, and more.
“The Jeep Grand Cherokee has been a consistent winner in AutoPacific’s Ideal Vehicle Award research. For the last six years, Grand Cherokee owners have rated the vehicle as the SUV best targeted to its owners’ wants and needs,” said George Peterson, president of AutoPacific, Inc. “Grand Cherokee owners want very little changed. This is a testament to the excellence Jeep planners, designers and engineers have in understanding exactly what their customers want.”
