The Jeep Commander will be replaced by a Grand Cherokee step along?

The retirement of the Jeep Commander is scheduled for 2010, at least to hear the voices that come about in the undergrowth of the Chrysler brand and giving categorical for the abandonment of the project. Born in 2005, the great car to seven seats not met immediately by the public, the results relegandone sales in a limbo where they are no longer able to emerge (only 88,000 copies sold in 2006 and only thanks to powerful discounts). It is therefore despite its entry into procellose vicissitudes of divorce by Daimler Mercedes who forced a reorganization of the whole brand.

There is finally who suspected that the Commander has had an effect of cannibalization to the Grand Cherokee, stealing potential customers rather than attract new ones.

But even if the Commander will be removed from the market, Chrysler will not abandon the concept of the 7 seats and indeed try to give new life to this category of vehicles with a long step with the mythical Grand Cherokee developed on the basis of a platform shared with Mercedes - Benz. Although the scenario appears very plausible, because of the chaotic situation of Chrysler, still committed to overcoming the difficult time of internal reorganization and activities, there is still a degree of uncertainty.
