Jeep brought the Cherokee back or are you referring to the "Grand Cherokee"?
The new 2014 Cherokee based on a FIAT model. Competes with Honda CRV, RAV4, Escape, and such. I am not referring to its big brother, although that can be equipped as well for flat towing.
Fiat where did you get this -
02. The 2014 Jeep Cherokee Is Based On A Fiat Platform
A big part of the 2014 Jeep Cherokee's highly individualized looks have to do with the platform that sits underneath its sheet metal. The Jeep Cherokee makes use of a modified version of the same underpinnings used by the Dodge Dart compact sedan, which in turn is derived from an Alfa Romeo design. This means that the Jeep Cherokee benefits from a front-wheel drive layout, which is a first for the rugged brand, in addition to its available four-wheel drive models. Front-wheel drive might seem like a radical departure for Jeep, but its arrival coincides with the very real need to build more fuel efficient vehicles to balance out thirstier elements of the company's lineup.
