The record

The S package was offered from the Cherokee’s first year: high-back bucket seats, a sports steering wheel, wheel-lip mouldings, 15 by 7 styled wheels and a body stripe. It sat below the Chief from 1976 and was joined by the Golden Eagle and Laredo.

Research status: draft — identification, dates or figures could not all be pinned down; the summary says what is unresolved.

AI rendering impression

An AI rendering impression starts from a 3D model of this vehicle, which an image model then paints into a scene. It is an artist's impression of the type, made to give a feel for the vehicle in its element — not a photograph, and not a record of any particular vehicle.

Proportions, fittings, markings, colours and the setting can all drift from the original in the process. For the vehicle's actual details, rely on the specification, the photographs and the cited sources on this page.
