Early 2014 Jeep Cherokee Shots Show Off Its Aggressive Face

Post by Sabre »

Torque Report

Image
Next month Chrysler is expected to debut the replacement for the Jeep Liberty, which will reportedly revive the Cherokee name here in the U.S. It looks like a facotry insider managed to grab some shots of a few prototypes that were then sent over to the guys at Jalopnik.

From these shots it looks like the Cherokee is going to get a rather aggressive face that is a big departure from the flat faced Liberty. Inside the Cherokee will get an interior that is similar to the larger Grand Cherokee. The Cherokee is expected to be based off the same Alfa Romeo platform that also is the basis for the Dodge Dart.

Stay tuned for all the details soon...
Very different look for them!

Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.

I don't think you're wrong. The Grand Cherokee isn't quite as puke-inspiring and it has a similar grille.

^^^ That's much better!

Who knows, maybe over time I will like the Asian look.

the grille extends on the plane of the hood and the lighting is split into lower projectors and upper parking/signal, etc. I think a Nissan Juke did similar positions but all in one piece. Not sure which is worse...

Ok, now that I've seen it in a dark color I can say I'm not a fan.

Does the white one make anyone else think of a shar pei? No? Just me?
