The new Grand Cherokee will come with Chrysler's new 'Phoenix' engine, a 3.3 or 3.5-litre V6 and a diesel for Europe. It will be engineered to accommodate a hybrid powertrain, to follow later. This efficient yet powerful V6 will replace the thirsty V8 petrol engine currently offered. Chrysler has this week announced a $1.8 billion investment on new-vehicle programmes and on updating its Jefferson North Assembly plant in Detroit, where the new Grand Cherokee will be built.

Grand Cherokee has ALWAYS been unibody. It is not a "body on frame" pickup.
Really? When it first came out, the Grand Cherokee was heavily criticised for its handling and body roll.
A unibody will give it car like handling and steering. Kia is doing it with the 2010 Sorento...
Laguna,
Your an idiot. The Grand Cherokee has NEVER been a body on frame vehicle.
Go down to your local Jeep dealer and look under the vehicle. It is, and always has been, a unibody vehicle.
Anon: Firstly anon, I maybe an idiot but you're a bigger idiot for using the "your" instead of "you're".
"Your" is used when something belongs to you like YOUR car. "You're" is shortend for "you are". Example: Laguna, you're an idiot.
Please use the correct grammar when posting :)
Secondly, just because I don't beleive you, that automatically makes me an idiot?
first of all they aren't getting rid of the hemi and the car in da pic is A 2008 grand cjerokee
Anon, I'm fully aware of what year the G.C is and reports are suggesting that the 6.1 litre V8 goes out of the window in favour for a V6
Quite sure both engines are going to be made available. Both the Phoenix and the HEMI. And all the GCs have been Unibodies. Owned a 93, a 99, a 2003 and family has an 05. All Unibody.
