Gray 2019 Jeep Cherokee From Driver Side

If you’re the proud owner of a 2019 Jeep Cherokee, then you may be thinking about saving a few bucks by doing your own oil changes. That means you will need to know the oil type and oil capacity for your vehicle. Keep reading for the answers!

What is the oil type and capacity for my 2019 Jeep Cherokee?  

It depends on which engine the vehicle is equipped with, either the 2.0L (122 ci) I4, the 2.4L (287 ci) I4, or the 3.2L (198 ci) V6. This also determines the capacity, which ranges from 5 to 5.9 quarts.  

2019 Jeep Cherokee Overview

The 2019 Jeep Cherokee got a bad rap from automotive experts. When all of the reviews of 2019 Midsized SUVs were compiled, the 2019 Jeep Cherokee was considered a bit of a dud by most experts.

Out of 20 Midsized SUVs on the market, it came in at #18 in Expert Reviews.

Owners disagreed. They considered it the #3 SUV overall in the US, trailing behind only its bigger cousin — the 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee — and the 2019 Toyota 4Runner. It just goes to show that the experts and actual owners don’t always see eye-to-eye when it comes to the satisfaction that a vehicle provides.

The oil type and capacity for your specific 2019 Jeep Cherokee will depend on which engine it has in it. The 2019 Jeep Cherokee is available in nine separate trim levels, and those trim levels offered a choice of three different engines.

Those engines are:

  • 2.4L I4 Zero Evap
  • 2.0L I4 DOHC DI Turbo
  • 3.2L V6

The size of your engine will be printed on the plastic casing near the oil cap if you open up the hood of your 2019 Jeep Cherokee.
