Jeep Cherokee first introduced in 1963
The newest Jeep vehicle has arrived. Jeep Cherokee.
Heir to a tradition of quality and rough road dependability, Cherokee takes up where Jeep CJ-5 leaves off. Youthful and sporty, with the extra room that lets you pack along what you used to leave behind.
Cherokee really stands out where the pavement ends because the famous Jeep 4-wheel drive was specifically designed into Cherokee — most of the competition are merely converted two-wheelers.
With greater ground clearance and a higher load capacity than any other sports utility vehicle in its weight class, new Cherokee makes a big difference in the boondocks.
Jeep Cherokee combines this rugged performance with sporty good looks — plus exciting options like Quadra-TractJeep’s automatic 4-wheel drive, automatic transmission, power steering, air conditioning and power front disc brakes.
New Jeep Cherokee is the get-away machine your family has been waiting for. It’s a Jeep-and-a-half.

Before you even consider buying a Jeep Cherokee, make sure you’re serious. Because there are plenty of choices out there, including Broncos and Blazers.
But only one is born of the rugged Jeep legend. And we consider Cherokee the best sports utility vehicle available in America today. That’s a pretty big statement for any vehicle to back up. But Cherokee doesn’t back away from a little healthy competition.
Its 4-wheel drive system is built in from the ground up, not added on. It has an integral steel roof, not plastic. It comes in 2-door and 4-door models, unlike its biggest competitors. And 95.8% of all Jeep registered in the last 10 years are still in operation today. Nobody can match that record.
