The 2002 Jeep Liberty Cherokee KJ, a compact sport utility vehicle (SUV), marks a significant shift in Jeep's model lineup. Replacing the aging Cherokee XJ, the KJ brought a fresh design and a focus on modern amenities while still retaining the rugged heritage of the Jeep brand. Built on a unibody platform, the Liberty offered a more car-like ride than its predecessor, while still maintaining off-road capability. The KJ featured a distinctive design with a rounded front end, flared wheel arches, and a high-mounted roofline. This design, while not as traditional as the XJ, offered better aerodynamics and a more spacious interior.
Under the hood, the Liberty came with a range of engine options, including a 2.4L four-cylinder, a 3.7L V6, and a 2.8L CRD diesel engine. These powerplants were paired with a five-speed manual transmission or a four-speed automatic transmission, offering a balance of performance and fuel efficiency. The Liberty's suspension, featuring independent front and rear suspension, provided a comfortable ride on paved roads while still offering decent ground clearance for off-road adventures. The vehicle's four-wheel-drive system, available in both part-time and full-time configurations, further enhanced its off-road capabilities. The 2002 Jeep Liberty Cherokee KJ was a well-rounded SUV that offered a blend of everyday practicality, off-road prowess, and stylish design. It became a popular choice for families and adventurers alike, solidifying its place in the Jeep legacy.
