The 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 was revealed at the New York Auto Show.  This new Jeep model is being hailed as, “the most powerful, technologically advanced, high-performance Jeep vehicle ever.”

Powering the 2012 Grand Cherokee SRT8 is an all-new 6.4-liter HEMI V8 producing 465 horsepower and 465 pound-feet of torque – an improvement of 45 horsepower and 45 lb.-ft. torque over the 6.1-liter HEMI V8 it replaces. Thanks to Chrysler’s Fuel Saver Technology, the SRT8 delivers improved fuel efficiency — an estimated 13-percent increase on the highway — and an extended range of approximately 450 miles on one tank of gas.

“The all-new 2012 Grand Cherokee SRT8 is the ultimate performance SUV, delivering a combination of Jeep capability and utility, world-class performance, luxury and refinement, and advanced innovative technology,” said Mike Manley, President and CEO – Jeep Brand, Chrysler Group LLC. “Jeep vehicles have long been known for their off-road capability. In addition to Jeep four-wheel-drive traction and utility, the Grand Cherokee SRT8 takes capability to a new level by giving driving enthusiasts extreme performance for the street and track.”
