1989 Jeep Cherokee XJ 4×4

THIS… is a 1989 Jeep Cherokee 4×4, finished in Dark Baltic Metallic with a gray interior.

• This Cherokee features the desirable 5-speed manual transmission, and its odometer currently displays approximately 21,800 miles.
• The attached Carfax vehicle history report contains multiple gaps, though it shows no accidents or mileage discrepancies during the given time period.
• According to the window sticker provided in the gallery, notable factory equipment includes the Visibility Group, 15-inch wheels, cloth and vinyl upholstery, and a folding rear seat. Notable modifications reported by the seller include a roof rack.
• Jeep’s significantly downsized Cherokee made its debut for 1984. Called XJ internally, it ditched its predecessor’s body-on-frame layout in favor of unibody construction to offer a more comfortable ride on the pavement, though it remained exceptionally capable off-road. It was a risky bet but it paid off: the XJ nearly doubled Jeep’s retail sales in 1984 and it remained available in America until 2001.
• Power comes from a 2.5-liter inline-4 engine, rated at approximately 121 horsepower and 141 lb-ft of torque. Output is directed to the rear or all four wheels through a 5-speed manual transmission.
