2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8: the most powerful and most manoeuvrable Jeep ever made




The most powerful and most maneuverable Jeep ever built, and certainly the most beautiful.

Performance version of the Grand Cherokee comes with important changes that are meant to highlight the sporty and aggressive character of the American model.

Interior is covered with Nappa leather, but the seats are dressed with suede. Customers are having on their disposal a heated steering wheel, adjustable headrests, various carbon fiber inserts, brake in the kind of racing models and other exciting elements.

But the real delight is the impetuous heart under the hood, which equips also the 300 SRT8 model. It's about the 6.4-liter HEMI V8 engine that develops 465 horsepower (347 kW / 471 PS) and 630 Nm (465 lb-ft) of torque, enough to push the American beast from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 4.8 seconds and top speed reaches 250 km/h (155 mph). Autonomy was also seriously improved. Americans's creation is with 0.1 seconds closer of Porsche Cayenne Turbo and BMW X5 M.

Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 features a new suspension system, an electronic limited slip differential and a Brembo brake system.
