The Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 is not only the most powerful version of the model, and it is also by far the most powerful vehicle of the brand. Never before had built many Jeep horsepower under its hood. His aesthetic has also been modified to give a more aggressive and elegant at the same time.

The side has been smoothed to achieve a more elegant and also acquire exclusive wheels. The assembly of the vehicle acquires a slightly larger width and a reduction of the distance from the ground.
Motorization

This takes a maximum torque of 624 Nm, both engine power and maximum torque are numbers that have never been seen before in a Jeep so we are ahead of the more aggressive and radical model of the U.S. manufacturer.
The new line Grand Cherokee SRT8 can combine a unique style typical of the brand with excellent functionality, both on and off road track, despite having no gearbox. In order to take over the high performance of this version, the elements that had been developed for the rest of the range Grand Cherokee fell short when installed on this SRT8, so it has a whole new mechanical and unique to this series.
Performance
With 470CV power we could expect anything from the Jeep, is that besides being the most potent of all, it is also the fastest with a top speed of 257 km / h and can accelerate from 0 to 100 km / h in only 5 seconds. It also highlights the great braking as Slowing from 100 to 0 km / h in just 35 meters.
Its benefits have been increased considerably but the mechanical assembly is not only based on that, and also found a greater management control when the vehicle in any situation. The suspension and brakes play an important role in this regard.
