2007 Jeep Liberty Review
Liberty is a 4-dr, five-seat wagon. Its swing-open tailgate has opening glass and carries the spare tire. Sport and uplevel Limited models are offered, both with a 210-hp V6. Unavailable for 2007 is the 160-hp diesel 4-cyl offered for 2006. A 6-speed manual transmission is standard on Liberty Sport. A 4-speed automatic is optional on Sport, standard on Limited. Libertys offer rear-wheel drive or a choice of two 4WD systems. Jeep's Command-Trac 4WD should not be left engaged on dry pavement. The extra-cost Selec-Trac 4WD can be left engaged on dry pavement; it's available only with automatic transmission. Both 4WD systems have low-range gearing. ABS and traction/antiskid control with rollover sensors are standard. Curtain side airbags with rollover deployment are optional. Other available features include navigation system, sunroof, leather upholstery, heated front seats, and wireless cell phone link.
Competition
Consumer Guide® Automotive places each vehicle into one of 18 classes based on size, price, and market position. Among utility vehicles, Compact SUVs are typically the least costly and offer the best fuel economy. Most utilize a car-type chassis and are not designed for heavy-duty, off-road use. Nearly all are five-passenger vehicles.

Our Best Buys include the Honda CR-V and Suzuki Grand Vitara. Our Recommended picks are the Hyundai Tucson, Kia Sportage, and Toyota RAV4.

New or significantly redesigned models include the Acura RDX, Honda CR-V, Jeep Compass, Jeep Patriot, Jeep Wrangler, and Mitsubishi Outlander.
News
Liberty is redesigned for 2008. Spy photos confirm a new squared-up look blending elements of the related Dodge Nitro and Jeep's large Commander SUV. Wheelbase, length and width all appear increased, likely to near Nitro dimensions. Most other specifics can't be confirmed yet, but look for Liberty to share Nitro's powertrains and Load-'n-Go cargo system. Keep checking back with us for late-breaking news.
