The Jeep Cherokee, particularly the 1987 model, signifies a pivotal point in the evolution of the iconic SUV. Launched in 1984, the Cherokee represented a departure from the rugged, utilitarian Jeeps of the past, introducing a more refined and passenger-focused design. The 1987 model year saw significant advancements, including a redesigned front end with a larger grille and squared-off headlights, contributing to its distinctive, almost boxy aesthetic. This Cherokee generation was built on the compact American Motors Corporation (AMC) "XJ" platform, featuring a unibody construction for increased passenger comfort and refinement compared to its predecessors. While retaining the iconic Jeep off-road capability, the 1987 Cherokee offered a more car-like driving experience, making it a popular choice for both adventure seekers and everyday commuters. Under the hood, the 1987 Cherokee was offered with a range of powertrain options, including the fuel-efficient 2.5L four-cylinder engine, a smooth and powerful 4.0L six-cylinder, and even a diesel option for increased fuel economy. These engines were paired with either a 5-speed manual or a 3-speed automatic transmission, providing drivers with a choice of gearboxes to suit their driving style and preferences. The 1987 Cherokee's robust construction and versatile drivetrain allowed it to tackle various terrains with ease, from paved roads to challenging off-road trails. Regardless of its intended use, the 1987 Jeep Cherokee quickly gained recognition for its reliability, durability, and impressive off-road prowess, solidifying its place as a true icon in the automotive world.
