The 2010 Liberty is well-qualified for off-road activities, boasting a robust
chassis, impressive ground clearance, steep approach angles and proficient
four-wheel-drive systems. These attributes allow the Liberty to scamper over
rugged terrain. The brawny-looking Liberty can also tow up to 5,000 pounds,
another feat that some urban-oriented competitors can't
match.
Body Styles,
Trim Levels, and OptionsThe 2010 Jeep Liberty is a
compact SUV available in Sport and Limited trim levels. Both can be had with
either rear- or four-wheel drive.
Standard equipment on the
Sport includes 16-inch alloy wheels, heated mirrors, keyless entry, automatic
headlamps, a tilt steering wheel, air-conditioning, full power accessories, a
fold-flat front passenger seat, a 60/40-split-folding rear seat and a
six-speaker stereo with a CD player, an auxiliary audio jack and satellite
radio. The Popular Equipment Group is optional for the Sport, and it adds roof
rails, cruise control, upgraded cloth upholstery, foglamps, rear privacy glass
and a cargo cover.
The Limited comes standard with the
Sport's Popular Equipment Group and tacks on 17-inch wheels, leather upholstery,
power heated front seats, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, Bluetooth and an
eight-speaker Infinity stereo with steering-wheel controls. Limited options
include automatic climate control, rear parking sensors, 18-inch alloy wheels
and a hard-drive-based navigation system with real-time traffic, digital music
storage and a USB jack.
Optional on both trims are a Towing
package, a sunroof and the Sky Slider full-open cloth
roof.
Powertrains and
PerformanceBoth Jeep Liberty trims can be equipped with
rear-wheel drive or a choice of two 4WD systems -- part-time Command-Trac or
full-time Selec-Trac. All Liberty models are powered by a 3.7-liter V6 that
produces 210 horsepower and 235 pound-feet of torque. A four-speed automatic is
the lone transmission choice. Properly equipped, the Liberty can tow up to 5,000
pounds. In performance testing, the Liberty Limited went from zero to 60 mph in
9.5 seconds. The 2WD Liberty returns an EPA-estimated 16 mpg city/22 mpg highway
and 18 mpg combined, while 4WD returns 15/21/17.
SafetyAntilock disc brakes,
stability control, active front head restraints, electronic roll mitigation and
side curtain airbags are all standard on the 2010 Jeep Liberty. The National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration awarded the Liberty a perfect five-star
rating in both front and side-impact crashworthiness.
