The new high performance Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 is better in ways more than one. With its European Debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show, the Grand Cherokee will have more to offer this time around.

The SRT tag does not add to the fact that the heart of the vehicle is better and more refined, it also adds to the simple theory of making a car capable of street racing. The SRT or Street Racing Technology in the Jeep Grand Cherokee is the most powerful, high-performance Jeep out of the manufacturer’s stable. Powered by a 6.4 liter HEMI V8, the new Cherokee churns out 470 bhp and a massive 630 Nm of torque with a top speed of 155 miles an hour and a zero to hundred mark in 16 seconds. Add to this, the new HEMI V8 also come equipped with Fuel Saver Technology.

The ride has also been improved to a great extent due to a better body structure and a new SRT-tuned, active damping suspension managed by a new Jeep Selec-Track System allowing the driver to manually choose between five dynamic modes for different terrains.
