Would you trade your xj for this?
Jeep is presenting a new Cherokee in America. That’s a ‘big deal’ because it’s bone a long time since a new cherokee was presented.
Okay, technically it was only three months ago that a new cherokee was presented. However, that was the car you see here, and we couldn’t tell you anything more about it at the time than what was visible in the photo. Now we can, because jeep is pulling out all the stops when it comes to the cherokee.
Just to give you an idea: The Cherokee is a mid-sized jeep, larger than the compass (which is Peugeot 3008-sized), but narrower than a jeep grand cherokee, which, contrary to what the name suggests, has nothing to do with the cherokee.
This Cherokee is the successor to a car that was already presented already in 2013 and was once also delivered in Europe, but mainly in theory. The New Cherokee is also in the tradition of the xj generation, that square jeep that was on the price list until 2001. Fun fact: the cars between that xj and the cherokee from 2013 Were Called Liberty in America. But we digress. Compared to its direct predecessors, The New Cherokee is a lot more square again and is thus emphatically in the xj tradition.

The Rear of the New Jeep Cherokee Reminds US A Bit of the Civic Shuttle. Or is that just us?
Inside the Cherokee, You Don’t Have To Expect Any Visible Family Ties with Peugeots and Opels. Stellantis Still Keeps its business well separated per continent in that area, but naturally provides the cherokee with a modern layout and corresponding infotainment. By the way, the 4.78 meter long car is also spacious: jeep promises 30 percent more loading space than the previous model. Behind the Front Seats You Should Be Able to Stow 1,935 Liters and Behind The Rear Seat 952, Although It is Probable Calculated Up To The Roof.
