As the only remaining fruit of the cooperation between Daimler and Chrysler, the current Grand Cherokee is not only the Peugeot that Chrysler was reborn, but also the last product that still uses the Daimler model platform.
As the life cycle of the current Grand Cherokee is approaching, the new generation of Grand Cherokee has also officially exposed road test spy photos and related information.
Obviously, the new generation of Grand Cherokee will completely abandon Daimler’s model platform and adopt the platform within the FCA Group. It is reported that the new generation of Grand Cherokee will use Alfa Romeo’s existing longitudinal engine platform. The use of the new platform will also greatly optimize the electrification level of the new generation of Grand Cherokee, and it is expected to add a mild hybrid system to improve the economy of the vehicle.
Judging from the exposed spy photos, the size of the new generation of Grand Cherokee has been significantly increased compared with the current model, and the wheelbase has been improved most obviously. It is difficult to see the details of the next-generation Grand Cherokee due to the camouflaged package, but what is certain is that the larger body size will bring a more solid appearance.
According to Jeep’s product definition, the Grand Wagni will officially return in the near future as the full-size flagship product of the Jeep series. This also means that the new generation of Grand Cherokee will continue the five-seater layout. Judging from the road test situation, the new car is expected to officially debut in the second half of next year.
