Included in the viability plan just submitted by the automaker to the U.S. government was a rendering of the Grand Cherokee’s new look—as well as one of the next-generation 2010 Chrysler 300.
If the rendering is to be believed, the next Grand Cherokee will sport a flatter face with Jeep’s seven-slat grille gaining wider chrome bars.
The headlight clusters shrink to create a look that’s much more modern and aggressive than the old quad bug-eye design.
The lower intake moves to the bottom of the smoother front fascia, further reducing the visual chunkiness of its predecessor.
The squared-off fender flares of the old GC become more subtle, and smaller door handles add to a sleeker overall shape. The glass portion of the rear liftgate appears to be more upright.
The Jeep looks as if it will carry its newfound exterior refinement to the inside. A simple-looking gauge cluster and center stack will greet the driver.
Wrap-around wood trim lines the dash and doors, and we expect higher-quality and softer materials to be found throughout the cabin.
Given the three-row Commander’s impending demise, we wouldn’t be shocked if the new Cherokee were to grow to allow for an optional third row of seats.
