The 2023 Cherokee promises to do a good job in softening the drive experience, but somewhere it lacks in providing the best comfort in the class. Jeep provides comfortable leather seats endured with heated functions even in the base model. It elevates with the various trim levels. Cherokee’s cabin is comfortable and roomy enough. Looking at its size from the outside, it seems more spacious, but in many aspects, it remains behind than Ford Escape and Honda CR-V especially when you have to use the cargo area of the car. Latitude Lux and the Cherokee X feature an 8.4-inch infotainment touch screen and a 6-speaker sound system.
Cherokee offers a total passenger capacity of 128 cubic feet. It provides 39.4, 41.1, and 57.6 inches of room for the head, leg, and shoulder respectively in the first row. Second-row passengers may feel a little confined due to the comparatively less room.
The Limited variant of the Cherokee is equipped with 9 speakers premium sound system, adaptive cruise control, driver seat memory function, panoramic sunroof, automated parking system, and many more features that do not let you feel disheartened. It is a vehicle carrying 5 passengers.

In the class, all cars seat 5 however the Subaru Forester is seen having the most seating space in both rows, followed by the Honda CR-V. The Cherokee and the CX-5 are somewhat head to head in this class. Cargo storage capacity is not known for all in the class, however, the Subaru, with its nearly 70 cubic inches of storage, will give the others a tough competition.
