Jeep\u2019s lineup has filled out over the past couple of years with the addition of the luxury Wagoneer<\/a> and Grand Wagoneer and all-electric Wagoneer S, which is soon to be joined by the also-electric Recon. But potentially more important than all of them is the 2026 Cherokee, and new spy pics reveal the face and interior for the first time.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\tvar adpushup = window.adpushup = window.adpushup || {que:[]}; Compared with previous prototypes, this one has stripped away much of the front-end disguise, giving us a look at a grille that\u2019s like a mashup of\u00a0several other Jeep<\/a> grilles. The five visible vertical grille sections (two are still hidden) are taller than the ones on the Grand Cherokee and seem to stand more proud of the body. But they also don\u2019t have the a piece of trim above them to display the model name like the Wagoneers do.<\/p>\n Related: Here\u2019s What We Know About Jeep\u2019s 2026 Cherokee<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n But even if it did have a bit of trim with the name on, what would it say? We\u2019re calling this SUV the Cherokee because it\u2019s effectively a replacement for the Cherokee that bowed out in 2023, and will nestle below the Grand Cherokee in the Jeep lineup. But some reports say Jeep will move away<\/a> from the name it\u2019s used for decades as a mark of respect Cherokee Nation.<\/p>\n Whatever it\u2019s called, this new Cherokee<\/a>\u2019s dashboard design has more in common with the Wagoneer S EV than it does the existing Grand Cherokee. These first ever interior pics of the Ford Bronco Sport rival show a large digital instrument cluster and a central touchscreen that\u2019s mounted at an angle, just above a bank of touch-sensitive buttons for the climate control.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/a> <\/p>\n It\u2019s good to see drivers won\u2019t have to dive into the infotainment to change the temperature, and the switches do look great, but physical push-buttons would be even better. Further down the console is what looks like a rotary controller for the transmission and a toggle to move between the driver modes. The passenger side of this prototype is covered with cloth disguise but it\u2019s possible Jeep could offer a third screen above the glovebox, as it does on the Wagoneer S.<\/p>\n Housed between the shock towers of Stellantis STLA Large platform you\u2019ll find the Cherokee\u2019s first ever hybrid powertrain options, and later, an all-electric variant<\/a>. Leaked documents suggest production is scheduled to begin this fall for the 2026 model year and we\u2019re sure to find out more \u2013 including the name \u2013 in the months leading up to that debut.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\tvar adpushup = window.adpushup = window.adpushup || {que:[]};
