No, we haven't forgotten to put "Grand" in the title. This partially camouflaged prototype marks the return of the Jeep Cherokee.
According to our sources, Jeep is killing off the Liberty name, which is associated with all the wrong qualities, and replacing it with Cherokee, a classical name for the brand.

The unfamiliar yet beautiful SUV is actually a production version of those ugly Alfa Romeo test mules we've been showing you.Even though the platform is borrowed from the Alfa, the body is unmistakably a Jeep.

The Jeep Cherokee will be available next year in both front- and all-wheel drive. Power will come from the Pentastar V6 but also from some sort of four-banger, either the 2.4-liter Tiger Shark or the 1.4-liter turbo from the Dart or Abarth 500.

Our spy photographers managed to capture a photo of the interior as well. This seems to feature the same digital gouge cluster as the Dodge Dart, a welcomed modern upgrade.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
