Jeep Grand Cherokee Diesel Coming for 2013

Nicholas Lochmandy

Larry Vellequette of Automotive News wrote that there would be a Jeep Grand Cherokee diesel option in North America for 2013. The option has been absent since 2008.

U.S. Grand Cherokee sales rose 51% in 2011, hitting 127,744, and over 50,000 of the similar Dodge Durangos were sold in the same year. Demand for the Grand Cherokee and Durango has remained strong, and theGrand Cherokee SRT8, though condemned by some enthusiasts for its price, appears to be selling briskly at many dealerships.
