2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT breaks cover

Jeep is updating the current Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT so that it remains fresh until replaced by the new car in the coming year. It will sport a price tag that starts at USD 67,790 (Rs 45.11 lakh).

All the work that goes into this version will be a part of the Grand Cherokee facelift that’s lined up, and the new design includes styling changes to the fascia, a new grille, larger air dams, and new fog lamps. Jeep’s distinctive seven slot grille on this iteration, with the black trim joining the dark-bordered head lamps, looks somewhat subdued. 

For now though, Jeep has left the engine untouched and that means buyers can continue to relish the 6.4-litre Hemi V8 that makes 470bhp. Sources also suggest that the international market will get to witness the Hellcat edition next year, which will use a reworked version of the SRT’s Hemi V8 motor that’s expected to make 707bhp, and a whole lot of excitement. This version is slated to be called the Trackhawk, and we shall share more on this vehicle in the days to come, so stay tuned!
