The Jeep Commander (XK) is a mid-sized SUV introduced in 2006. It was first introduced at the 2005 New York Auto Show. It is the 7-passenger counterpart of the Jeep Grand Cherokee. It has much more boxy styling, with an upright windshield and squared-off sides. The roof is stepped for the second and third-row seats (which are mounted higher than the first-row seats), but is disguised, as on the GMC Envoy XL, by a roof rack. It also features three moonroofs called "Command View".
While the Jeep Wagoneer was the Commander's initial inspiration, it is built upon the WK Grand Cherokee and resembles the discontinued third generation Jeep Cherokee (XJ).
There is speculation that the Jeep Commander may be discontinued after the 2009 model year, citing declining sales in light of the model's poor fuel economy.[1]
The Commander offers a base V6 engine with two optional V8s including the new Hemi: The jeep commander comes with the opitional entertainment package which includes a dvd player and tv and rear parking camera
In Europe and certain other markets like Chile, South Africa, and South Korea, the Commander offers a V6 Diesel engine developed by DaimlerChrysler with BlueTec technology:
