Jeep Trail Hawk Grand Cherokee Is Tipped For Australia

The recently announced in the US Grand Cherokee Trail Hawk is set to come to Australia soon. Expect it to look just like the Moab prototype and be equipped with the Turbo Diesel engine and kitted out with all the 4x4 options such as Quadralift, Off Road Adventure group and GPS. Most likely to be seen in the new year as a 2013 model the hard core off road equipped Grand Cherokee will follow in the footsteps of the recent and successful  Jet edition Laredo models that have mostly sold out.
More information to come as we get more details from our sources.
Sharp eyed Jeep enthusiasts will note that the Trail Hawk is fitted with bright red recovery hooks and we are told that the Australian versions will be equipped with these. Makes you wonder why Jeep Australia had all the 2012 Grand Cherokee's arrive here with out the hooks that were fitted to the 2011 model. The quoted reason at the time was to meet "European pedestrian safety regulations" but some how this version will be fitted with the same 2011 hooks we were told were not compliant. Makes you wonder if some one at Jeep Australia just stuffed up when they ordered the 2012's doesn't it?
