Jeep Grand Cherokee
The Jeep Grand Cherokee has long been king of the hill. Following its dwindling market domination in recent years, this strongman is back with a vengeance with an updated new look. Like before, three trim levels of the Grand Cherokee offered: the Laredo, Limited and Overland. The engine choices include a V6 Pentastar and a V8. 2012 marks the return of the SRT8 and its 465 horses.
