Overview

The 2011 Jeep Liberty SUV is a proud member of the compact SUV segment, locking horns with cars like the Kia Sportage, the Toyota RAV4, and the GMC Terrain. Spread across three trims, the 2011 Jeep Liberty SUV starts off at a base price of MSRP $23,250. Its 3.7L V6 engine and a 4-speed automatic transmission give the SUV 210 horsepower and 235 lb-ft of torque. With that, it manages a 0-60 of 10.2 seconds and boasts a towing capacity of 5,000 pounds. Moving to fuel economy, the Jeep Liberty SUV manages to get a combined EPA rating of 18 MPG, a poor number for the class, giving its rivals an edge. It also has a ground clearance of 7.8 inches.Â

Buying Advice

All that shines in the Liberty lineup is its impressive off-road performance. Hene, we recommend opting for the Renegade trim that comes with features like all-terrain tires, an enhanced 4WD drive system, and 16-inch wheels.
