New Jeep Cherokee: New York Auto Show 2013

The new Jeep Cherokee has its official public debut at the 2013 New York Auto Show today with 9-speed gearbox and based on a  Fiat platform.

And then we discovered that Gumpert had been on the edge of financial oblivion and had laid off almost all its staff.
