Product Overview

Jeep Cherokee Mk4 (chassis code KK) is a compact crossover in production from 2008 to 2012. It was available with a range of inline-4 and V6 engines that displaced 2.8 to 3.7 liters.
Compared to Mk3, the Mk4 Cherokee is more attractive in styling, though some may suggest that build quality remained low. As Chrysler went through a tough period, the Mk4 Cherokee had a rather dated drivetrain. It retained the chassis and suspension setup of its predecessor.
