Cherokee returns as Jeep relaunches iconic model
Jeep has confirmed the new sixth-generation Jeep Cherokee is set to be launched in the US later this year to slot between the Compass and Grand Cherokee. The midsized SUV makes a comeback after the fifth generation was discontinued in 2023. Stellantis provided almost no technical information except to say it would feature hybrid power. The company released pictures showing the Cherokee has the brand's latest design cues, as seen on the new Compass, launched earlier this month. Though Jeep said the Cherokee has been reimagined from the ground up, the newcomer has the brand's customary seven-slot grille and rugged shape. 'The all-new Jeep Cherokee headlines our efforts to deliver more product, innovation, choice and standard content to customers than ever before,' said Jeep CEO Bob Broderdorf. The Cherokee first appeared in 1974 as a variant of the Wagoneer and evolved from a full-size SUV to a compact SUV and finally into a crossover SUV. For the moment Cherokee is only destined for the North American market, and Stellantis told BusinessLIVE it cannot confirm whether the vehicle will come to SA. In SA, sales of the last-generation Cherokee ended in 2021. Jeep's local line-up comprises the Grand Cherokee large SUV, Wrangler 4x4 and Gladiator double-cab bakkie.

Is this the boxiest Jeep ever?
The all-new, sixth-generation Jeep Cherokee has been revealed… sort of. The first official images of the large, boxy SUV have been released, with the promise of more details to come later this year. We'd forgive you for thinking these were just more pictures of the new Jeep Compass that was unveiled not too long ago, because the two cars look pretty similar. Both feature an upright front end with Jeep's signature seven-slot grille, a flat bonnet, squared-off wheelarches and very square body. Advertisement - Article continues below Of course, all of those styling cues were also found on the landmark, second-generation Jeep Cherokee, more commonly known as the XJ, from the eighties. It was one of the world's first compact SUVs and arguably the most influential model the 4x4 brand has produced, so we understand why the new Mk6 Cherokee might hark back to it. So far, the only technical detail Jeep has confirmed is that the new Cherokee will be available with hybrid power. We're assuming it's based on the same STLA Large platform as the new Jeep Wagoneer S, and the next-generation Alfa Romeo Stelvio, which means there would be potential for an all-electric version too, but we'll have to wait and see. Jeep CEO Bob Broderdorf said: 'The all-new Jeep Cherokee headlines our efforts to deliver more product, innovation, choice and standard content to customers than ever before. 'Jeep Cherokee will boast competitive pricing that strikes at the core of the largest vehicle segment and sits perfectly between Jeep Compass and Jeep Grand Cherokee to bolster our winning mainstream line-up.' The brand's boss is referring to its American line-up there. If the new Cherokee comes to the UK and Europe – which hasn't been confirmed yet – it should slot in between the new Compass, which is due to arrive here before the end of the year, and the flagship Wagoneer S that last we heard was due in early 2026.

Jeep unveils new hybrid Cherokee SUV, set to be released in 2025
Jeep has revealed the first details and image of its new Cherokee SUV, set to launch later this year as part of efforts to reverse declining sales. The new midsize SUV from the Stellantis-owned brand will include a hybrid powertrain option, though the company has yet to clarify whether this will be a traditional hybrid or a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV). Jeep currently offers PHEV models in its SUV range. Bob Broderdorf, Jeep's CEO, said in a statement: "The all-new Jeep Cherokee headlines our efforts to deliver more product, innovation, choice and standard content to customers than ever before. Jeep Cherokee will boast competitive pricing that strikes at the core of the largest vehicle segment and sits perfectly between Jeep Compass and Jeep Grand Cherokee to bolster our winning mainstream lineup." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Jeep (@jeep) Affordability has posed a challenge for Jeep amid rising prices. The entry-level 2022 Cherokee model started at approximately $30,000, close to the current Jeep Compass price of around $27,000. The 2025 Grand Cherokee begins at roughly $36,500. Jeep has yet to disclose further details about the vehicle, including where it will be manufactured. Industry analysts and union officials anticipate production will take place at a plant in Mexico—a decision made before the election of President Donald Trump and the implementation of 25% tariffs on imported vehicles to the US. The previous generation Cherokee was produced at a facility in Illinois, which has been idled since early 2023 following discontinuation amid cost-cutting and production realignment. The cancellation of the Cherokee and the smaller Renegade SUV after the 2023 model year contributed to Jeep's ongoing sales decline. Jeep has faced six consecutive years of falling US sales, reporting a 10% decline in the first quarter of 2025. The Cherokee's launch is expected to be a key focus for incoming Stellantis CEO Antonio Filosa, who previously led Jeep's turnaround efforts before his promotion to oversee the company's Americas region.
