New for 2018: Jeep
For the 2018 model year, Jeep makes two major changes to its lineup. First, the Grand Cherokee Trackhawk debuts, equipped with a supercharged V-8 engine making 707 horsepower. Second, the Wrangler is redesigned, but it doesn’t go into production until the holiday season, so the automaker is extending the current Wrangler’s run and renaming it the Wrangler JK. Remaining news is primarily related to new infotainment systems, special editions, and other minor changes.
