Hmmm...I think I like the styling on this more than the new Cherokee...but it looks really small. It's a Fiat 500 with a facelift. Anybody else have an opinion?

It's basically a Fiat Panda. I like the styling more than the Cherokee, but it's still not my cup of tea. I'd end up in a JKU or a WK2 before the rest of the line up.

The angle I first saw of it on 4wheel and offroad's facebook page I honestly thought that the magazine had pimped out a nissan cube.

Until we know more specifications, I will reserve judgment. As far as styling, I like it better than the Cherokee.

Not great, but not horrible.
Definitely need to know more.

Same here. I need to know more. But I like the styling better than the Cherokee. The Cherokee was a huge disappointment.

From certain angles it looks like it could have been a Gen 1 Liberty update.

reminds me of a cooler kia soul. I know my dad loves them (but owns a f-250) so I'm sure they'll get fans.

I read they were designed after those army gas cans. Kind of interesting.

It does have a 4lo from what I've read it's got a 20:1 crawl ratio

The back quarter panel window area is sort of fJ cruiser-ish.

I don't exactly love the rear styling but the front isn't terrible. And I definitely like it better than the new Cherokee.
