The Jeep Cherokee Returns for 2026!

Now available at Lee Dodge Chrysler Jeep in Westbrook, ME - proudly serving Portland and surrounding areas.

The Jeep Cherokee returns for 2026 with the kind of comeback Mainers appreciate: tougher, smarter, and more refined, yet still unmistakably powerful. Modern upgrades pair with legendary capability to create an SUV that feels just as at home on a snowy Portland commute as it does threading along a muddy camp road deep in the pines.

Power Meets Precision

The latest Cherokee is built for drivers who expect more than a basic crossover. It's tuned for traction, control, and confidence when the weather and terrain don't feel like cooperating.

  • New engine options with improved efficiency.
  • Advanced 4x4 systems tuned for Maine winters.
  • Enhanced towing capacity for small campers and trailers.
  • Trailhawk off-road hardware for serious adventures.

From downtown Portland to backroads near Sebago, the Cherokee is designed to feel planted and precise, not just powerful.

Bold New Look

The Cherokee gets a fresh face and a cabin that feels every bit as modern as the tech inside it. The new design balances familiar Jeep SUV cues, like the seven-slot grille with cleaner lines and sharper lighting that look right at home in a Westbrook driveway or in front of a Portland restaurant. Inside, thoughtful details create the kind of space you want to sit in, not just ride in, with materials that feel durable and upscale at the same time.

  • Redesigned exterior styling with crisp lines and LED lighting.
  • Spacious, premium interior materials and supportive seating.
  • Flexible cargo area with fold-flat seats and smart storage.
  • New exterior colors that range from subtle to adventurous.

Confidence on Every Drive

Maine roads can turn from clear to slick in a single stretch of shoreline fog or a fast-moving squall. The new Cherokee leans on advanced driver-assist features to help keep you composed when conditions change. These systems quietly watch your surroundings, stepping in with gentle nudges, alerts, or added visibility just when you need them most. It's the kind of support that lets you relax a bit on late-night drives or long weekend runs up the coast, knowing the SUV is tuned to watch the details with you.

  • Adaptive cruise control for relaxed highway cruising.
  • Blind-spot monitoring to watch your flanks in traffic.
  • Lane-keeping assist to help you stay centered on long drives.
  • 360 degree surround-view camera for easier parking and tight maneuvers.

These systems don't replace good judgment, but they add a welcome layer of backup for daily drivability.

Smart & Connected

Inside, the Cherokee feels like a rolling command center that happens to be built for bad weather and dirt roads. The interface is clean and intuitive, so you spend less time hunting through menus and more time watching the scenery along Casco Bay or the backroads through Windham and Gorham. Your phone pairs quickly, your favorite apps appear where you expect them, and the cabin sound system makes even a short errand run feel more like a quick escape. It's tech that feels helpful, not distracting.

  • Next-gen Uconnect system with a larger, high-resolution touchscreen.
  • Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for cable-free integration.
  • Available premium audio system for music, podcasts, and calls.
  • Over-the-air updates to keep software fresh without extra visits.
