Effortlessly accommodate every off-road toy with help from the 2021 Jeep Gladiator. Visit Renfrew Chrysler in Alberta today and discover how this pick-up can adapt to your cargo needs - courtesy of its available Trailer Tow Package.Â
To provide maximum strength in Langdon and beyond, Jeep has paired the new Gladiator with a Trailer Tow Package. This enables drivers to dominate payloads, delivering up to 7,650 pounds of power; and it also assures seamless hitch experiences. Included with this suite is a Class IV receiver, which can accommodate most utility, tilt bed, and carry-on equipment. A 240-amp alternator improves performance, while a heavy-duty engine cooling system enhances climate control (ensuring that the block doesn’t struggle beneath the weight of heavy cargo).
Additionally, the Gladiator’s Trailer Tow Package features hitch zoom technology - which is part of the ParkView Rear Back-Up Camera suite. This enables drivers to more efficiently monitor their connections, showcasing distance, trajectory, and more at four times the standard perspective. No longer struggle while reversing. This feature will instead deliver seamless performance with every haul.

Want to fuse your adventures with safety? Visit Renfrew Chrysler in Alberta to learn how the 2021 Jeep Gladiator can maximize your fun while minimizing your worries - courtesy of its SiriusXM Guardian technology.Â
Available on the new Gladiator is the SiriusXM Guardian system. This suite - which anchors the Uconnect media console - enables drivers to confidently navigate every backroad by delivering ample security services, such as:
Â
SOS Calls
In the wake of an emergency press the integrated SOS button on the rearview mirror. This will instantly connect you to a trained SiriusXM representative, who can then help you reach local emergency personnel or roadside assistance crews. Never feel alone on the road.
Theft Notifications
Should your Gladiator’s alarm be triggered, the system will automatically send you a warning - whether by text, email, or push notification - and increase your response time.Â
Vehicle Finder
Should you ever lose track of your Gladiator (whether in a crowded parking lot or on a winding forest trail), the system will launch a Vehicle Finder function - generating a digital map that will sync with your smart devices. Achieve precise GPS tracking and real-time updates.
Through these services the SiriusXM Guardian suite will assure more efficient travels in Alberta. To learn more about this and other Jeep Gladiator technologies contact our team today.
The Quadra-Drive II is a 4x4 design available on the new Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk, Limited, Summit, and Overland trims. This sophisticated function uses a rear electronic limited-slip differential and an active transfer case to distribute torque quickly. It is a full-time system, so it is always on and does not require activation, allowing you to confidently go anywhere and do anything.Â
Here is a closer look at the unique traits of this powerful 4x4 drivetrain.Â
Quadra-Drive allows you to choose from five different operation modes via the Selec-Terrain Traction Management System. Auto is for everyday commuting on regular paved roads, while the Sport, Snow, Mud/Sand, and Rock settings are for their respective driving conditions. If you like off-road adventures and challenges, Quadra-Drive is essential.
The system can also send torque to a specific axle or tire to prevent slippage on slick or rugged terrain. It can move up to 100% of the power to the wheel(s) with the most traction, ensuring that you'll always maintain maximum control of the vehicle.Â
Help feed your passion for exploration behind the wheel of a Jeep. To learn more about the feature-rich 4x4 systems on the Grand Cherokee, contact our Calgary dealership today for a full spec review.
The SiriusXM suite of entertainment and security features comes standard (with a one-year membership) on the new Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited and higher trims. These tools include Guardian, which is a remote access app that works in conjunction with the Uconnect system.    Â
What can you do if your Jeep has this unique feature?Â
Perhaps the most useful Guardian tool is remote unlocking. Using the Uconnect app on your phone, you can control access to your vehicle even if you are not nearby. This feature can be invaluable if you ever forget your keys, if your fob loses battery power, or if you need to provide a friend or family member access to the cabin.Â
Remote lights and horn triggers, also activated by smartphone, can serve as a panic alarm or assist you as you try to find your vehicle in a crowded parking lot.Â
Accident Response and Roadside Assistance services help you contact emergency or service personnel when you are in a collision or have a breakdown or flat tire. And finally, the Send and Go feature allows you to share destinations on a device nav app with your Uconnect system.Â
Contact our Calgary dealership to learn more about which Jeep vehicles offer the Sirius Guardian app.
The new Jeep Wrangler boasts two main cameras meant to increase safety. One is in the front and the other in the rear - affording wide-angle perspectives and increasing visibility on the Calgary trails.
The Wrangler's forward-facing unit, also known as the TrailCam, shows what is directly ahead of the vehicle. The image is displayed on the Uconnect touchscreen and features dynamic tire-path lines superimposed on top of the video feed. This view is for off-road conditions and allows the driver to see obstacles - such as boulders - in real time. The tool is available on models with 8.4-inch touchscreens and will prove crucial when traversing rough roads.
The rear camera, known as the ParkView function, offers a wide-angle picture of the area behind the new Wrangler. The image is displayed on the Uconnect touchscreen, with dynamic gridlines to help guide the vehicle as the driver attempts to back into a parking space. It affords seamless navigation in tight corners.
To see these unique tools in action yourself, contact our Calgary dealership to schedule a test drive in the new 2021 Jeep Wrangler. We will gladly provide a demonstration of the TrailCam and ParkView systems, as well as highlight additional safety features.
If you want an open-air driving experience, like the one offered by the new Jeep Wrangler, you are probably wondering whether you should get a soft or hardtop. In Calgary's four-season climate, the latter may seem to be a better option - allowing you to better adapt to the constant shift of sleet, slush, and showers.Â
Still not sure whether a hardtop is the right option for you and your Jeep? Let's take a look at the pros and cons.Â
Â
Jeep Wrangler Hardtop:Â Pros
1. Hardtops offer better noise control so, if you value a quiet ride, they are the obvious choice.Â
2. Due to its superior insulation, this option is better able to handle winter weather.
3. Hardtops are also easier to clean, and they do not require any special washing solutions.Â
Jeep Wrangler Hardtop:Â Cons
1. Hardtops take longer to remove and reinstall.
2. They do not have the classic "convertible" look.Â
3. They take more space to store, which means you will be getting less cargo room than with a soft-top.
There are distinctive advantages to the hardtop choice - though, drivers may be quick to note the potential problems. If you would like to this option in action, contact our Calgary dealership today. We will happily schedule a demonstration on a new Jeep Wrangler.
The Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk is an example of a high-end trim that has ventilated seats. This feature is also common on luxury vehicles, and it usually comes standard for the front row, though some cars offer it in the rear seats for outboard passengers, as well.Â
Ventilation features typically rely on small fans or blowers that draw chilled air from the cabin and circulate it through the cushion. The surface of the chair is porous, allowing the cooling flow to directly contact the driver and passenger. You can easily control the temperature with a dial on the dash or centre console.Â
This feature can be especially useful on long trips, and it proves invaluable when you park outdoors in the warm sunshine. Without this element, the solar heat gain would make sitting almost unbearable. Ventilated seats can also reduce sweating and dry any moisture between the body and the seat, which is especially helpful to have during hot Alberta summers.
Most vehicles that offer this cooling feature, including the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk, have both heating and ventilation units for year-round comfort. If you would like to try one for yourself, contact our Calgary dealership today to schedule a test drive.
Hands-free capabilities can make interacting with your vehicle's infotainment system safer because it allows you to tune the stereo or change navigation inputs while maintaining control of the steering.Â
Most vehicles offer Bluetooth connectivity options. Additionally, some have wheel-mounted buttons. These are technically not "hands-free," but they allow you to keep in command of the car and alter audio settings at the same time.Â
Additionally, a media centre with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility allows you to connect your phone to the interface. If the vehicle has voice controls, you can then interact directly with your device hands-free.Â
For example, with the Uconnect system on Dodge, Jeep, and Ram autos, you can text, call, adjust settings, select apps, and stream through the car's interface without touching your phone.Â
If you would like to see the features available with the Uconnect media centre, contact our Jeep, Chrysler, Dodge, and Ram dealership in Calgary today.Â
Accident avoidance systems can help keep you and your passengers safer on the road. Which of these protection tools are the most effective and widely offered?Â
Blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-path detection are standard on some autos, including the 2021 Jeep Cherokee Limited. Both use sensors to provide alerts that can protect you from common collision scenarios when moving in reverse or changing lanes.Â
Of course, high-tech traits are not a replacement for front and side curtain airbags, child-seat anchors, and three-point belts. These should be included on every new vehicle you purchase.

Turbocharged engines are typically small and light. However, the way they operate allows them to generate significantly more power than their conventional peers.Â
This extra muscle gets produced by using exhaust to push excess air into the engine, forcing it to burn more fuel per second. Because the emissions don't get wasted, the process is exceptionally efficient overall. Â
An example of the advantages of this setup comes from the 2021 Jeep Cherokee. Its standard 3.2L Pentastar V6 produces 271 horsepower and 239 lb.-ft of torque. The available 2.0L turbo I-4 creates 270 hp and 295 lb.-ft despite being much smaller.Â
