ItaliaspeedTV - Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 2010 (II)

As the first four-wheel-drive SRT vehicle, Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 (2010) is the quickest, most powerful Jeep vehicle ever, offering astonishing on-road and all-weather capability and power. The specially developed four-wheel-drive system propels Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 from 0-60 mph in less than 5 seconds—quicker than the Porsche Cayenne Turbo and BMW X5—0-100-0 in low 19-second range and 60-0 mph in approximately 125 feet. Powered by a 6.1-liter HEMI® V-8 that produces 420 horsepower (313 kW) and 420 lb.-ft. of torque (569 Nm), the 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 delivers the complete performance package with exceptional ride and handling, world-class braking, race-inspired interior appointments and functional, performance-oriented exterior enhancements. For example, the front fascia provides aerodynamic benefits by reducing lift and drag, while providing sufficient air flow to cool the 6.1-liter HEMI V-8 engine. The front fascia also helps increase brake-system cooling through integrated air ducts. The rear fascia incorporates an aggressive center cut-out in order to accommodate dual 4-inch exhaust tips. Sill extensions result in another functional enhancement by creating downforce. Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8s cabin features an SRT signature race-inspired interior. Seats with added bolstering and a performance fabric insert keep occupants firmly in place under spirited driving conditions. A dark slate gray interior color, accent stitching on the seats and a unique SRT-designed leather-wrapped steering wheel are some of the highlights. Full instrumentation includes a 180-mph (300-kph) speedometer, tachometer and temperature gauges, all trimmed with a unique blue accent. Providing horsepower and torque to the unique SRT four-wheel-drive system is a specially tuned version of the HEMI engine, which was developed by adding more displacement, increasing the compression ratio and redesigning cylinder heads, intake and exhaust systems for better flow and increased engine speed. Power from the 6.1-liter HEMI is sent through a special torque converter to an SRT-upgraded, five-speed automatic transmission with specially calibrated driver-selectable Auto Stick, which offers a fully automatic or manual shift selection.

This car looks much the same as there last 4models! Do they have a R&D department or have they used all the budget on Keeping up to speed (SPEED ONLY) with the Germans.

@mattbmx1234 I was hearing that it's suppose to come with a 6.4 Hemi V8 this time! I'm gonna check it out at the 2011 NY International Auto Show in April. Usually, something this great will be at that show.

[mattbmx1234]

@RJBbass2000 agreed.. and it HAS to come out.. because it needs to reclaim it's title.. those who have beaten it use turbos and the Jeep is all motor.. that's what made it so bad ass...... either way I would take ab SRT Jeep over a nasty porsche or wanna be truck BMW.. not to mention.. neither of those can hold a candle with out their turbos and that's sad.

@mattbmx1234 That is gonna be one sick ass SRT when it does come out!

[mattbmx1234]

@ZZMann33 the new SRT is coming out in 2012... Jeep stated that it probably going to have 555 horsepower .. fingers crossed

[gercedillo]

I've had these type of Jeeps in the past, one word "Awesome". Terrible on gas though, so expect to get less than 10 miles per gallon.. Does anyone know if there coming out with a 2011 model?
