ChadC Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 I enjoy independent analytical tests to real world scenarios. If I owned on of these, id seriously consider selling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old yeller Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 I wonder how the SRT 8 suspension / tires would hold up to the test? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChadC Posted July 5, 2015 Author Share Posted July 5, 2015 I wonder how the SRT 8 suspension / tires would hold up to the test? I assume the 20" low profile tires wil be crap. but from their website "robust anti-roll bars and cambered front and rear wheels all help the Grand Cherokee SRT achieve an impressive .90g lateral acceleration figure on the skidpad when equipped with the sticky P Zero tire option" for reference the Grand Cherokee start at $32k. the SRT start at a whopping $65K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Extender32 Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 I would think the SRT would do much better. Tires are obviously much wider, the suspension is also much stiffer than the non SRT versions, and the SRT was tested to .88g's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChadC Posted July 5, 2015 Author Share Posted July 5, 2015 i stand corrected. the video was a 2012 model. but they ran again for 2014 and it did much better http://www.autoblog.com/2014/01/02/updated-2014-jeep-grand-cherokee-passed-controversial-moose-test-video/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mikey Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Rumor has it that now they are going to put a 707 hp hellcat hemi engine in the Grand Cherokee and it will be called the Track Hawk. Probably OK in a straight line? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
