The American sports icon revisited and revitalized
VIGILANTE
Jeep Cherokee Chief
The most sportive Jeep classic on the market is the Jeep Cherokee Chief, from 485 HP to 1000 HP.
Thanks to modern, high-performance components, the Jeep is more reliable and offers a more comfortable and economical driving on and off road.
A state of mind
Adventure and discovery of new territories
New playgrounds
Original design
New components
A chassis built to our specifications allows us to handle the power of modern HEMI engines and deliver a fresh driving experience with modern suspension and true braking capacity.
20 years of JEEPHERITAGE experience have allowed us to understand the good and the bad of the original designs. The objective of VIGILANTE is to keep the good and update the Jeep to today’s standards.
A monster of 485 HP to 1000 HP with a 6-speed gearbox
The engines found in our VIGILANTE vehicles are the same as those found in today’s JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE SRT and TRACKHAWK.
Motorization revisited with 3 HEMI engines to choose from (from 485 HP to 1000 HP).
Adapted suspensions and sporty braking
EIBACH coil springs and manually adjustable FOX RACING 2.0 shock absorbers have replaced the original leaf springs suspensions used on Full-Size Jeeps.
The firm grip is provided by BAER 6-piston calipers.
A sporty chassis
A custom-built chassis that can handle from 750 HP to 1000 HP.
Our Jeeps are fully restored.
At VIGILANTE, our restorations are of similar quality as the ones performed on high-end car brands such as Ferrari, Porsche, or Bugatti. What we deliver is as close to brand new as you can get!
During the restoration process, the entire car is disassembled, piece by piece. Our body shop then carefully strips paint off the body and fixes both impacts and rusted areas. Then the entire body is metalized and the chassis is galvanized to prevent rust from coming back.
Finally, the body is painted, and the chassis is completely powder-coated.
Every mechanical component is new.
“Our rule: as much as possible, each element is either replaced with New Old Stock or completely restored”
Price starts at $295,000
