All-new Jeep Cherokee debuts internationally at the 2013 Shanghai Auto Show

The all-new Jeep Cherokee raises the bar and is ready to take the mid-size SUV segment by storm - on any continent. Following close behind its world premiere in New York last month, the Jeep Cherokee has its international debut at the 2013 Shanghai Auto Show
on April 20.

"Jeep is our global brand and, since its inception, the all-new Jeep Cherokee was conceived and developed not only for our home market of the US but also for world markets," said Mike Manley, President and CEO of Jeep Brand, Chrysler Group LLC, and Chief Operating Officer for Asia Pacific Region, Fiat S.p.A. "The new Jeep Cherokee will become a benchmark in the global mid-size SUV segment by combining the segment-first nine-speed automatic transmission, refined on-road manners and fuel efficiency with the capability that only Jeep can deliver and that our customers have learned to trust."

The Jeep Cherokee, which will be known in China as 'Zi You Guang', will arrive in volume to dealer showrooms in the China market by the end of 2013.

"China is the largest market for the Jeep brand outside of the US, and one out of every five vehicles in the mid-size SUV segment is sold in China. Hence, it just makes sense that the new Jeep Cherokee has its international debut in Shanghai," said Manley.
