The 2007 Jeep Patriot is available in three distinct trims: the base Sport, the mid-level Limited, and the feature-rich Patriot Latitude. The Sport trim includes essential features such as air conditioning, full power accessories, and keyless entry. The Limited trim adds luxury elements, including leather seats, a premium audio system, and automatic climate control. The Latitude trim takes it a step further by enhancing connectivity options and additional technology features, ensuring a sophisticated driving experience.
