This seems reasonable, since in the U.S. alone from the total sales of the Grand Cherokee, the diesel only managed to sell about 8 percent.



"Cherokee is a little different from the heavy weights and sizes are held. When I think about bringing Cherokee diesel here, I want to see the Grand Cherokee diesel get higher sales than 8 percent. And should have an increase of up to 2 digits," said Manley.

As we all know, the Jeep Cherokee diesel is more acceptable in the European market. By offering a 2.0-liter turbodiesel four-cylinder engine, this car is capable of producing 140 horsepower to 170 horsepower.

The engine torque reaches 258 lb-ft which is then channeled through a system of 6-speed manual transmission or 9-speed automatic.
