Performance

Powering the 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee is the 6.4-liter HEMI® V-8 with Fuel Saver Technology that delivers 470 horsepower and 465 lb.-ft. of torque. The SRT8 delivers fuel efficiency and an extended range of 450 miles on one tank of gas, with blazing standing starts and improved straight-line performance.

The Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 is the best-handling Jeep vehicle ever, with its SRT-tuned, adaptive damping suspension managed by the Jeep Selec-Track system, which interacts with different systems to tune the dynamics of the vehicle. Choose among five dynamic modes for specific driving conditions.

Capability

It’s not a Jeep vehicle if it’s not capable. The standard Jeep Quadra-Trac SRT active on-demand four-wheel-drive transfer case does a few things. It uses sensor input to take corrective action at the earliest detection of tire slip, allowing the Jeep 4×4 system to transfer up to 100% of available torque to one rear wheel. The transfer case also enhances handling by proportioning torque between the front and rear axles.

Other features include five-spoke, 20-inch forged aluminum wheels and a trailer tow rating of 5,000 lbs.

Luxury

Building off of the Jeep Grand Cherokee’s refined, luxurious interior, the SRT8 interior features race-inspired technology and SRT-exclusive appointments. Drivers assume the role of racer with a leather-wrapped steering wheel with a satin chrome rim section and paddle-shift controls on both sides. Nappa leather and suede seats, sculpted bolsters, and contrast stitching enhance the race-inspired luxury.

Drivers receive instant feedback thanks to the SRT-exclusive Performance Pages, showing horsepower, torque, 0-60 time, G-forces, expanded engine information, and more.

The 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 is the most powerful Jeep vehicle ever, the best-performing Jeep vehicle ever, and the best-handling Jeep vehicle ever. It comes with standard luxury, race-inspired appointments, and exclusive SRT features. And with the new Alpine and Vapor special edition models, the 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 truly is The Ultimate Performance SUV.
