The Jeep Patriot, produced from 2007 to 2016, was a compact SUV that aimed to bridge the gap between the smaller Jeep Compass and the larger Jeep Cherokee. It was a popular choice for those seeking a versatile vehicle capable of handling both urban and light off-road adventures. The Patriot offered a choice of two four-cylinder engines, a 2.0-liter or a 2.4-liter, paired with either a five-speed manual or a continuously variable transmission (CVT). While not renowned for its off-road prowess, the Patriot featured a raised ground clearance and optional Freedom Drive I and Freedom Drive II systems, which provided additional traction control and hill descent control for improved handling in challenging conditions. Inside, the Patriot offered comfortable seating for five passengers and a decent amount of cargo space, with a rear seat that could be folded down to expand the cargo area further. It was known for its practical features such as multiple storage compartments, cupholders, and a user-friendly dashboard. The Patriot also introduced a unique "My Sky" roof option, allowing for a removable panel above the front seats, offering a more open-air driving experience. While its fuel efficiency was generally competitive, the CVT transmission sometimes garnered criticism for producing a "rubber band" effect, and the overall driving dynamics were criticized for being a bit bland. Nonetheless, the Jeep Patriot, with its affordable price point and practical nature, appealed to a wide range of consumers looking for a capable and versatile compact SUV.
