It’s back and better than ever. After a three-year hiatus, the 2026 Jeep® Cherokee brings this classic exemplar of off-road power back to the Jeep lineup, and these designers haven’t been taking time off. These new features are making a big wave at Hall Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM Virginia Beach, and we’re taking a moment to explain what’s changed since this model last graced our showroom.
Performance That’s Miles Ahead
The 2026 Jeep Cherokee introduces a hybrid powertrain to this model for the first time in its 50-year history. This SUV is now powered by a 1.6-liter gasoline engine and two electric motors, giving it 210 net horsepower for easy merges and a spirited drive at highway speeds. That modern powertrain connects to the classic Legendary Active Drive I® 4x4 System for effortless off-road mastery.
Contemporary Tech for Adventurous Drivers
In-cabin technology has jumped forward since 2023, and the 2026 Jeep Cherokee has more than caught up. A massive 12.3-inch Uconnect® 5 infotainment touchscreen replaces the old 8.4-inch screen so that every driver can enjoy wireless Apple CarPlay® and hands-free natural language commands. And with additional available features like a digital rearview mirror and a wireless charging pad, this SUV is even further ahead.
Even More Safety Technology
The proactive safety system in the 2026 Jeep Cherokee takes advantage of all of the improvements in Jeep technology since the 2023 model, including an improved forward-collision warning and cruise control. Intersection Collision Assist™ now detects potential drivers running stop signs and stop lights for another set of eyes on the road. This SUV can now even automatically detect a drowsy or distracted driver, alerting them to pull over and take a break.
