What Changed
The high-performance Grand Cherokee SRT8 returns for the 2012 model year. The SRT8 features a powerful engine, unique styling and a reworked suspension. The SRT8 has 6.4-liter V-8 under the hood that produces an estimated 465 horsepower and 465 lb.-ft. of torque. The SRT8 is equipped with a five speed automatic and drives all four wheels. A unique front fascia, lower ride height, body colored cladding and a rear liftgate spoiler visually differentiates the SRT8 from other Grand Cherokees. SRT models add performance oriented measurements like steering angle, g-force, braking distance, and acceleration times to the information display. |
