Jeep CHEROKEE – collective page in commercial N1 registration: XJ and KJ/KK, 2.5/2.8 CRD diesels and the 4.0 straight-six, High Roof vans, 59 to 155 kW
This page gathers the Jeep Cherokee in commercial N1 registration as a van or estate – versions of the XJ (1984–2001) and KJ/KK (from 2001) ranges, registered above all in the Netherlands as a High Roof or Commercial variant. The Cherokee originated at American Motors and passed to Chrysler with its takeover in 1987; it was built, among other places, at the Toledo, Ohio plant. The type designation gives displacement and drivetrain – 2.5 TD and 2.8 CRD for the turbodiesels, 4.0I for the well-known straight-six petrol engine – SE and Limited mark the equipment lines.

The register lists here 49 versions with outputs from 59 to 155 kW, displacements from 2,060 to 5,900 cm³ from four- to eight-cylinders, unladen weights from 1,518 to 2,165 kg against gross weights of 2,120 to 2,812 kg and widths from 1,770 to 2,050 mm; lengths are recorded for a handful of entries at 4,200 to 4,630 mm.
The Cherokee is regarded as one of the most influential off-roaders of its era and stayed technically closer to the classic SUV concept than later unitary platforms; the commercial N1 registration as a High Roof van was used above all by tradespeople and courier services in the Netherlands.
On used examples, the 4.0-litre six calls for checking the head gasket and cooling system, the turbodiesels their injectors and turbocharger, the body for rust at the wheel arches, sills and tailgate, and four-wheel-drive versions the transfer case and axles; parts run through the Stellantis-Jeep network and a broad used-parts market.
