Jeep’s Wildest Ever Grand Cherokee Is Set to Return With SRT Supercharged V-8 Muscle After a long hiatus, Jeep’s quickest SUV is expected to return with Hellcat power and a modernized platform. The 2028 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT Trackhawk is set to revive the legacy of the previous Trackhawk model, which delivered 707 horsepower and became a standout in Jeep’s lineup. This new iteration will reportedly feature a revised version of the supercharged 6.2-liter Hemi V-8, potentially matching the performance of the recently unveiled Ram 1500 Rumble Bee, which boasts 777 horsepower and 680 lb-ft of torque in its highest-spec SRT variant. Fans of Dodge, Jeep, and Ram have been clamoring for the return of massively powered V-8 Hellcat and SRT models, and Stellantis, the parent company of those brands, has started responding. The Ram 1500 Rumble Bee is the first model to get the new super V-8 treatment, and the Grand Cherokee is in line to receive a similar powertrain. This move comes amid relaxed Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards under the Trump administration, which allowed Stellantis to regain flexibility in developing gas-powered engines. Previously, the company faced financial penalties for failing to meet stringent fuel-economy requirements, but the revised rules have enabled the revival of its V-8 family, including high-horsepower variants like the Hellcat. The Grand Cherokee SRT Trackhawk would serve as a halo model for Jeep, offering a high-performance option to compete with luxury SUVs from Mercedes-AMG and BMW M. The current Grand Cherokee lineup includes a 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 producing 293 hp and a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder making 324 hp.#dodge #jeep #jeep_grand_cherokee #stelantis #ram_1500_rumble_bee
