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 and Chevrolet TrailBlazer EXT, by a roof rack. It also features three moonroofs called "Command View".
Jeep is the fourth company to produce a vehicle called the Commander, after the Studebaker Commander, the Scammell Commander and the Norton Commander motorcycle.
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).
The Commander offers a base V6 engine with an optional 4.7 L Magnum and 5.7 L Hemi V8: The Jeep commander comes with the optional entertainment package which includes a DVD player and TV and rear parking camera.
