Jeep Cherokee / Liberty KJ
Compact CrossoverProduct Gallery
Product Overview
Jeep Cherokee Mk3 (chassis code KJ) is an affordable compact crossover in production from 2001 to 2008. It was available with a range of inline-4 and V6 engines that displaced 2.4 to 3.7 liters.
Those who drive offroad, for work or leisure, need to think twice before pulling the trigger: the Jeep Cherokee KJ is hardly the "offroader" that Jeep would like you to think, though it is better than most crossovers. The Jeep Cherokee III (KJ) also comes with a high towing capacity.
