Automan2164 Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 http://jalopnik.com/...is-it-335476306 Looks good from the side... but the front, my god the front. Rob
86customanche Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 :hmm: what were they thinking with them headlights
mpace6a Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Side looks good...inside looks good. Needs a V8, because it looks like it needs to go fast, quickly. But dear god...headlights? wtf were they smoking?
JFAComanche6 Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 It looks like a Nissan Juke front and Volvo XC90 rear...weird... come out with another pickup already, Jeep!
SW86 Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 i didnt see this thread before the other one, but that is not a cherokee, it doesnt even resemble one. i guess they were trying to go for a smaller version of the grand cherokee but thats no excuse for that p.o.s. to have the cherokee namesake
Guest Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 My god; that thing is absolutely hideous. I'll give the Chrysler engineers kudos for trying something different, but I sure as heck wouldn't buy it. Got a funny feeling this is going to leave a lot of people scratching their heads.
JeepcoMJ Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 looks like a @#$%ing pile of $#!&. And that was with blatant swear words that the forum has substituted. you let your mind figure out what they were, but that thing is a pile of garbage. What the Hell is Chrysler thinking?!
Pseudosport Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 I’m surprised at how something this ugly can make it into production. There must have at least been a few people at Chrysler who said “guys, I think this is a bad idea…”
Comanche County Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Never mind the horrible exterior styling. They missed the mark with the interior also. They got it right with the new Grand Cherokees, IMO there's not a luxury car that even comes close to the simple elegance of Grand's interior styling, Lexus, Rolls, no one. Now they're going for the angular look, I don't like it as much. and the headlights....
Akula69 Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Kinda reminds me of the Aztek SUV that GM had crash and burn several years ago. See here: http://www.time.com/time/specials/2007/article/0,28804,1658545_1658544_1658540,00.html
Minuit Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 Oh, the humanity! If I ever see one of those things... I thought the Nissan Juke was the bottom rung of the 'awful' ladder. I'm now very wrong. What a damn disgrace. :fs1: . :MJ 1: . Upon further thinking: the only good thing that can possibly come out of this is a diesel in the US.
johnny quest Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 I’m surprised at how something this ugly can make it into production. There must have at least been a few people at Chrysler who said “guys, I think this is a bad idea…” right?! how did NOBODY step in and question that front end
Minuit Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 97-01 cherokee front end swap :rotfl2: :yes:
87jeepmj Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 And who's idea was it too put the headlights in the fenders
Comanche County Posted February 22, 2013 Posted February 22, 2013 I think overall it will come out nice. These pics aren't the most flattering. People hated the XJ when it came out, time will tell with this one. Thank the CAFE standards for headlights but clearly they just don't look "Jeep" enough.
Automan2164 Posted February 23, 2013 Author Posted February 23, 2013 UPDATE: Jeep says this isn't what will debut... Maybe second thoughts about that front end? I would like a mini Grand.This is far from it. Chrysler ✔ @ Chrysler “ @ jalopnik scoop re @ jeep. Photos not the vehicle to be revealed in NY.

ComancheKid45 Posted February 23, 2013 Posted February 23, 2013 So theyre really gonna debute some crossover based Independent suspension electronically dominated peice of modern lightweight gas sipping flimsey pile of disgrace and give the the task of upholding the name of simply "Jeep Cherokee!? Unbelieveable, and absolutly just disgusting... :(
AMCJeepMJ Posted February 23, 2013 Posted February 23, 2013 Remember the Rancor from Return of the Jedi? That.
a1500ram Posted February 23, 2013 Posted February 23, 2013 According to Jeeps website, the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee is going to be optioned with a 240hp / 420 ft lb Diesel with an estimated 30mpg and a 730 mile fuel range mated with the torque flite 8 speed automatic transmission. The diesel will be a late option I believe this is what the Grand Cherokee will look like http://www.jeep.com/...deep_cherry_red
'87 fuel-miser Posted February 23, 2013 Posted February 23, 2013 gotta remember ... it's not all chrysler's fault ... fiat's involved too ! ( looks like a g** d*** hyundai ) :no: . :MJ 1: .
