Review: 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT:
A Relative Bargain In The Performance SUV Space...
2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT (Mopar Insiders)
Jeeps Grand Cherokee has been an incredibly popular SUV since its original debut back in 1993, garnering a ton of awards and sales for the Jeep brand. Back in 2006 the SRT8 debuted based on the new for 2005 WK chassis. The 2006 Grand Cherokee SRT8 was powered by a 6.1 liter Hemi V8 that churned out 420hp and 420lb ft of torque delivering power to all 4 wheels. An SRT specific sport suspension as well as Brembo brakes rounded out the performance package, while styling and interior tweaks rounded out the SRT8 as a whole. Jeep and SRTs new creation was extremely popular, outrunning all other performance SUVs with a lower price of entry.

12 Model years later and the Grand Cherokee SRT8 is still around although now called the Grand Cherokee SRT. Jeep gave the Grand Cherokee a complete redesign for the 2011 model year and has kept it fresh with constant updates both cosmetically, functionally and mechanically. The Grand Cherokee SRT is no longer the highest performing Grand Cherokee in the line-up (Those honors go to the new 707HP HELLCAT powered Trackhawk), but make no mistake it is no slouch. Now powered by a 6.4 Liter (392 cubic inch) Hemi V8 rated at 475hp and 470lb ft of torque and backed by a ZF 8 speed transmission the 2918 Grand Cherokee SRT is both faster and more fuel efficient than the original.
