DETROIT AUTO SHOW: First Real-Life Photos Of The New Jeep Grand Cherokee's New Uconnect Interface

As most of you are aware of by now, we love our technology here at AutoSpies.com and the 2013 Detroit Auto Show was the place to be to see the latest and greatest. And if there's one infotainment system that's surprised us in the past year, it's what's coming from Chrysler Group.

Yes, you heard us right!

The Uconnect system has been pretty well received between Agent 001 and myself. What I like about it is that it's a clean interface, operates without lag and it is simple. While Ford's SYNC system has gotten more complex and, frankly, laggy, I have come to appreciate Uconnect.

Well, thanks to 001's eagle eye, he noticed that Uconnect was getting an update in the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee and snapped plenty of images for YOU to get a first look.

AutoSpies.com is the number one site in the world for Auto Show photos.

With other sites you're a spectator but with Auto Spies is like you're THERE!

The styling where the headlights, grille and bumper meet looks horrible.

Good God, must every vehicle today have LED rings or something around the headlights? The twin headlings of the ancient (last year) model made the Jeep look distinct, now it looks like every other cheapass me-too car out there.

A better idea would be to make the Jeep grille on the headlights light up with an LED, that would atleast be uniquely Jeep, not everyday Walmart.

That lower bumper looks like garbage now, this thing makes me think it has 2 front bumpers.

There is regulation in Europe that all vehicles must have day time running light. And most cars now are fitted with LED DRL.

Aren't these now called "jeweled" headlights?

Thanks to the LED rings on its headlights, you'll never mistaken anything else for a BMW, not even than KIA K9 5 series ripoff.

Ford uses the soft daytime lighting strips that are visible but not irritating.

Everyone else uses those cheap looking LED strips. Audi's headlight designs may be ugly but atleast you knows some sort of Audi is rolling up.
