The Patriot Is An Alexandria Jeep Fan Favorite

The Patriot’s exterior has always had the classic Jeep feel. For 2011, the Patriot features new front and rear fascias, a body-colored grille and an increased 4×4 ride height. Jeep’s signature seven-slot grille has received an upgrade with a new rugged mesh texture. A robust bumper and round headlamps complete the front fascia. The rear fascia now extends lower than on previous models and features a chrome-tipped exhaust on the Latitude X model.

The interior enhancements in the Patriot provide a more refined feel, perfect for Alexandria Jeep drivers looking for the most comfortable ride possible. New features include soft-touch front-door trim panels, integrated controls on the steering wheel, and more backlighting for the most commonly used switches.

Ride and handling are refined courtesy of upgraded steering and suspension systems in the 2011 Jeep Patriot. This improved suspension features higher spring and damping rates, added rebound springs, and an increased diameter of the rear sway bar. Despite these numerous capability features, the 2011 Jeep Patriot still boasts unsurpassed 4×4 fuel economy in its segment. Alexandria Jeep shoppers will be happy to learn that the Patriot averages 22mpg in the city and 28mpg on the highway.

For all those off-road enthusiasts out there or for the driver who simply loves power, the Jeep Patriot Latitude 4x4 is equally impressive under the hood.
