In an extraordinary display of automotive muscle, a Bengaluru-based 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT has roared into the spotlight, boasting a jaw-dropping 800 BHP. This turbocharged titan is on the market for INR 90 lakh, presenting a unique opportunity for adrenaline junkies to own the only supercharged SRT of its kind in India.
Sporting a renegade wide body kit and a sleek carbon steering wheel, this powerhouse has undergone INR 55 lakh worth of modifications by Racetech, transforming it into a street-legal rocket. Registered under WB02AM0120, the vehicle houses a monstrous 6.4-Litre HEMI V8 Engine, pushing boundaries with its 6417 cc displacement and an 8-speed paddle-shift automatic transmission. From a stock power of 461 BHP to its current 800 BHP, it stands as a testament to the pinnacle of Jeep’s engineering prowess at the time of its production.
The fourth-generation Jeep Grand Cherokee (WK2), a staple in the mid-size SUV category produced from mid-2010 to 2022, laid the groundwork for this marvel. Unlike its predecessors, it boasts a steel unibody chassis and a four-wheel independent suspension, ensuring unparalleled on-road handling.
Netizens have been quick to express their awe and humor over this vehicular behemoth. User sajeedkhaaan quipped about its fuel efficiency with a playful, “Average miles per gallon negative 10,” while suryansh08 appreciated the technical marvel, noting, “Whipple 6.4? Heck ya, the price is probably fair for the work done.” Meanwhile, smokeyavoidstaxes summed up the public sentiment with a bewildered, “Jeezus Christ who was insane enough to do this damn.”
This Bengaluru brute not only pushes the envelope in terms of performance but also serves as a daring statement of automotive artistry and engineering ambition.
