Jeep Cherokee XJ

Introduced in 1984, Cherokee (XJ generation) was an enormous success for Jeep. With its boxy yet elegant looks, great build quality, and many usable features, the second-generation Cherokee was the SUV of the ’80s and a globally successful model. Despite being a modern and comfortable vehicle, the Cherokee XJ retained all Jeep characteristics, such as rugged mechanics, a dependable AWD drive train, and good engines, which helped it claim the title of one of the best SUVs of all time.
