Why it stands out
The 2020 Jeep Cherokee stands out as a compact SUV that blends Jeep’s familiar all-weather capability with a more road-friendly, crossover-style design. By this point in the model’s life, it had already moved far from the boxy Cherokee image of earlier generations, but it still offered the kind of traction and adventure-minded appeal that keeps buyers interested in the nameplate. It also remained a strong value proposition in the used market, with average prices for 2014-2023 Cherokee models ranging from $9,000 to $22,000 at the time of writing.
For 2020, Jeep added new wheels and colors across various trims, including Sangria and Spitfire Orange, and Alexa was added to Uconnect 8.4 systems with navigation. The Cherokee’s broader appeal also came from its available V6, which many drivers liked for its power and smooth handling, along with a comfortable ride and a well-equipped interior. At the same time, it was not without drawbacks: some owners noted a lack of power for quick acceleration and disliked the auto-stop function.

This is a great vehicle. It has every feature that I asked for & more. It will have no issue towing my camper or hauling my kayaks.

Reviewed a 2020 Jeep Cherokee on Mar 10, 2023
I am.... impressed with the 2020 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. Specifically, the non-elite version has less fluff and is less likely to need repair amongst the electronics (no panorama roof, no rear tailgate motor, no advanced controls such as advanced cruise control, no heated seats or heated steering wheel & no NAV - etc. It does what it is supposed to do. I am also averaging 28 mpg versus the listed 24 mpg. I also added Falken Wildpeak ATW/3 tires to it (which makes it a better off road vehicle) also. Im pleased as punch with this Cherokee. Its a shame that Stellantis (Chrysler/Jeeps parent company) did not support this line of vehicles for the past 2 years & shut down the Belvidere plant (20 miles away from me) last month. There is zero reason why Stellantis cannot make money on this line of vehicles.

The vehicle is very capable on and off road. Plenty of power to get up to speed on the highway, pass someone, and 4500lb towing capacity. Also it is the only trailhawk in the lineup to have a true rear locker.

The only thing I dont like about the 2020 jeep Cherokee is the power. It lacks the take off power I prefer. But other than that its a beautiful vehicle rides smoothly and is comfortable.

How much does the 2020 Jeep Cherokee cost?
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Current Average Price | $16,170 |
| Year-Round Low | $16,170 |
| Year-Round High | $17,862 |
| Average Price a Year Ago | $17,861 |
| Change vs. Last Year | −9.47% |
Prices have softened 9.47% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.
There are 5,203 listings available, which suggests solid inventory for comparison shopping.
Is the 2020 Jeep Cherokee a good car?
Yes — the 2020 Jeep Cherokee earns a 4.8/5 user rating, which points to strong owner satisfaction. Drivers commonly praise its strong performance, comfortable ride, and spacious, well-equipped interior. For you, that makes it a good fit if you want a compact SUV with everyday comfort and a more adventure-minded personality. With 33.7% of listings marked as good or great deals, there is also meaningful market opportunity if you shop carefully.
Is the 2020 Jeep Cherokee reliable?
Owners rate it 4.8/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
User feedback highlights a dependable-feeling ownership experience, with drivers describing the Cherokee as strong on performance and comfortable over time. The same feedback also points to a smooth ride and a well-equipped cabin, both of which can support confidence in daily use. For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is making sure a specific vehicle has been maintained well and has not accumulated hidden wear.
What should I look for when buying a used 2020 Jeep Cherokee?
At 70.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
You should start with a vehicle history report so you can separate clean examples from those with prior damage. Then prioritize a thorough pre-purchase inspection, especially if the listing price looks unusually attractive. Focus on overall condition, maintenance records, and signs of past repair quality rather than relying on mileage alone.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2020 Jeep Cherokee?
This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop patiently but should move quickly on strong listings.
- Deal availability: 33.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 5,203 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 9.47% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 70.3% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $16,170, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2020 Jeep Cherokee's resale value?
The current average of $16,170 sits slightly below last year's $17,861.
That price movement suggests the Cherokee has become more accessible in the used market, which can help you buy at a lower entry point today. For a future seller, the recent softening means resale gains may be more limited unless the vehicle is especially clean, well maintained, and attractively equipped. Strong condition and a good ownership record matter more when the market is already pricing the model below its prior level.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.8/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2020 Jeep Cherokee or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2020 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2020 if:
- 33.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- At 70.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 9.47% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 4.8/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
Consider the 2021 if:
- At $18,289, the 2021 costs more than the current year's $16,170 average.
- It adds an all-new platform with more technology and usability.
The 2020 is the better value if you want a lower purchase price and strong owner satisfaction. If you can stretch your budget and want the newer platform with more tech and usability, the 2021 is the better upgrade path. For price-sensitive buyers, the 2020 is the smarter starting point.
