2009 Jeep Patriot

Off-road capability in an affordable SUV. edited by New Car Test Drive

Summary

2009 Jeep Patriot

The Jeep Patriot offers off-road capability in a compact SUV with a capable four-cylinder engine that gets an EPA-rated 22/27 mpg. The suspension is stable and comfortable, and cargo capacity is useful because all the passenger seats can easily fold flat. Those positives are offset by lower build quality and an improved but still plasticky interior.

NewCarTestDrive.com correspondent Sam Moses filed this report from Scottsdale, Arizona, with correspondent Kirk Bell reporting from Chicago.
