Confirmation about the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trachawk-hellcat powered came last
year and now a report has surfaced indicating that the extreme SUV will debut
at the New York Auto Show 2017 in April.
Motor Authority claims to have received word form a
“reliable source” about the Grand Cherokee Trackhawk’s world premiere. This means the Jeep will be sharing the stage with the Challenger SRT Demon,
making for over 1,400 hp of all-American Hellcat fury debuting in New York.
Although technical specifications about the model
won’t be revealed until closer to its debut date, the Jeep Grand Cherokee
Trackhawk will make the Dodge Durango SRT yesterday’s news with performance to
match or even exceed the Challenger SRT Hellcat.
If power remains at 707 hp from the 6.2-liter
supercharged V8, the Jeep’s all-wheel drive system could help it accelerate off
the line quicker than its muscle car sibling. With that being said, some
suggest that power in first and second gears may be limited to ease strain on
the AWD setup.
