Exceptional Performance and Trail-Ready Capability

Under the hood of this Bright White Clearcoat beauty lies the sophisticated Hurricane 2L I-4 port/direct injection engine. This DOHC, intercooled turbo powerhouse delivers a robust 324HP, providing the passing power you need on the busy corridors of Highland, IN. Paired with a smooth-shifting 8-Speed Automatic transmission, this powertrain is engineered for both efficiency and responsiveness. The inclusion of Heavy-Duty Engine Cooling ensures that even during the hottest summer days or while utilizing the Tow/Haul Mode, your vehicle maintains peak performance.

The Four Wheel Drive system on this Altitude trim is the renowned Quadra-Trac I automatic full-time 4WD, which works behind the scenes to distribute torque where it is needed most without any driver input required. For those who want more control over their driving dynamics, the Selec-Terrain System allows you to choose between various modes to optimize traction across different surfaces. Whether you are dealing with a sudden lake-effect snowstorm or navigating a gravel path, the Normal Duty Suspension and Rear Load Leveling Suspension work together to provide a composed and comfortable ride. The Drivetrain selectable Sport Mode further sharpens the vehicle's reflexes for those moments when the road opens up and you want a more engaging driving experience.

Efficiency is also a priority for the modern commuter.
