Why it stands out
The 2020 Jeep Cherokee stands out as a compact SUV that blends everyday usability with Jeep’s familiar all-weather capability. By this point in the third-generation Cherokee’s run, it had already moved away from the boxier, more truck-like image of earlier Cherokees and into a softer crossover shape, but it still offered the kind of traction and adventure-minded character that helped it appeal to buyers who wanted something more distinctive than a typical small SUV. It also remained a value-oriented choice in a market where Jeep’s four-wheel-drive capability and styling were among its main selling points.
For 2020, Jeep introduced new wheels and colors across various trims, including Sangria and Spitfire Orange, and added Alexa to Uconnect 8.4 systems with navigation. The Cherokee’s equipment list was already fairly broad, with a 7-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto having become standard the year before, and the model also offered a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine with 270 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque alongside the V6. Buyers looking for a more rugged version could still find the Trailhawk’s off-road-focused hardware in this generation, while the Cherokee’s cabin and feature content helped it feel more modern than its exterior shape might suggest.
There are trade-offs, though. The buying guide notes poor efficiency and some bad engines through the years, and it also points to major transmission issues in early third-generation models. For 2020 specifically, the Cherokee’s appeal is strongest if you want a Jeep-branded compact SUV with available power, a comfortable ride, and a well-equipped interior, while accepting that it was not the most trouble-free or most efficient choice in its class.

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.

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.

Is the 2020 Jeep Cherokee a good car?
Yes — the 4.77/5 user rating points to strong owner satisfaction. Drivers commonly praise its strong performance, comfortable ride, and spacious, well-equipped interior. The overview also frames it as a practical compact SUV with everyday usability and Jeep’s familiar all-weather capability, which helps if you want something more distinctive than a typical small SUV. With 32.2% of listings marked as good or great deals, you still have room to shop selectively.
Is the 2020 Jeep Cherokee reliable?
Owners rate it 4.77/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
User feedback highlights a generally positive ownership experience, with drivers describing the Cherokee as comfortable and capable, and many calling out the V6 for its power and smooth handling. That said, the overview also notes trade-offs around efficiency and some troublesome engines in the model line, so you should go in expecting a vehicle that can satisfy owners but may not be the most trouble-free choice in its class. For used buyers, that means long-term ownership risk is best managed by checking maintenance history carefully and prioritizing a well-documented example.
What should I look for when buying a used 2020 Jeep Cherokee?
At 71.7% 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 confirm accident records, title status, and ownership history before you get too far into the process. Then put inspection priority on body condition, panel alignment, and signs of prior repair, since those details matter most when a meaningful share of listings has incident history. It also makes sense to focus on overall condition and maintenance documentation so you can separate a clean, well-kept example from one that only looks good online.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2020 Jeep Cherokee?
This is a moderate buyer’s market, so you can shop selectively without expecting every listing to be a bargain.
- Deal availability: 32.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 5,445 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 8.68% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 71.7% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $16,764, 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 $16,764 sits slightly below last year's $18,357.
That price movement suggests the market has cooled, which can help you buy more confidently now but may also limit short-term upside if you plan to resell soon. If you buy at the right price and keep the vehicle in strong condition, you can reduce the hit from depreciation. Demand should remain steadier for well-kept examples with desirable equipment and clear history.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.77/5, 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:
- 32.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- At 71.7% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 8.68% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 4.77/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
Consider the 2021 if:
- At $18,887, the 2021 costs more than the current year's $16,764 average.
- It adds a broader mix of technology, safety features, and everyday usability.
The bottom line: If you want the better value today, the 2020 is the stronger starting point because pricing has eased and there are plenty of listings to compare. If you can stretch your budget and want a newer-feeling package with more modern tech and safety appeal, the 2021 is the better secondary path.
