In Europe and certain other markets like Chile, South Africa, and South Korea, the Commander offered a V6 Diesel engine. The Commander also had an optional entertainment package which included a DVD player, 9 in (229 mm) TV, and backup camera. The optional Command View sunroof package included a power front sunroof and two smaller sunroofs over the second-row seats. Smartbeam headlights were also available as well as HID headlights. Some optional features included: automatic wipers, a 276-watt Boston Acoustics premium sound system, hands-free phone integration, dual zone auto climate control, remote start, a power liftgate, heated first and second row seats, auto dimming mirrors, hill start assist, hill descent control, and adjustable pedals. Standard features included: electronic stability control, traction control, electronic roll mitigation, back up sensors, immobiliser, front dual-stage and side curtain airbags, TPMS, power heated mirrors, remote keyless entry, automatic headlights, UConnect infotainment system and a full-size spare wheel. This allowed the second and third-row seats to be mounted higher than the first-row seats. Its stepped roof was disguised by the roof rack a design similar to the GMC Envoy XL and Chevrolet TrailBlazer EXT. It featured an upright windshield and squared-off sides. It shared its unibody construction, independent short/long arm front suspension and its 5-link live rear axle with the Grand Cherokee on which it was based. It was developed to target consumers who wanted a three-row SUV, but designed to be only two inches longer than the Jeep Grand Cherokee with its two-rows of seats as well as to be assembled on the same production line. The production version of the Jeep Commander (XK and the diesel-powered XH export version) debuted at the 2005 New York Auto Show as a five- or seven-passenger counterpart of the Jeep Liberty. The Commander concept had no relation to the production SUV. This allowed for an interior featuring an extra wide center console in the front and three bucket seats in the second row. The concept car had the same height as production Grand Cherokees, but was about 8 inches (203 mm) wider. The overall styling influenced the development of the third-generation Grand Cherokee that was at that time six years away. The suspension could be raised 4 inches (102 mm) for traversing off-road purposes. Full-time four-wheel drive was by a severe duty electric motor on each axle. The concept featured an experimental direct methanol fuel cell that produced electricity to charge a nickel–metal hydride battery pack. Jeep exhibited a concept car named Commander during the 1999 auto show circuit. The Jeep Commander XK and XH (for diesel-powered export version) is a mid-size SUV that was manufactured from 2005 to 2010 by the Jeep division of the American manufacturer Chrysler.
