2006 Jeep Liberty sport review from North America
"Perfect for the north!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing so far!
General comments?
The car has good power (210 hp) and has an overdrive button (to turn it on and off) for passing etc.
The car has awesome handling, and the traction control is really good. I regularly drive the northern hwy 97 in BC from one end to the other in the worst conditions, plows and other vehicles are in the ditch, but not the Jeep! I am super happy with it.
The four wheel drive works very well as expected of a Jeep.
The vehicle is a very good size for the city as well, when I go to Vancouver, I have no trouble parallel parking this vehicle anywhere. The visibility is awesome as well and helps for this.
The turning radius is excellent and the vehicle handles surprisingly well, you wouldn't' think it was an SUV at times.
Gas mileage I am getting is 22 mpg highway and unknown for city as I drive the highway all the time... Pretty good!
