New Spy Photos of the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk Show Engine

The Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk is highly anticipated.  Who wouldn’t be wanting to see what the result if when you combine the Hellcat engine and one of the most popular Jeeps.  For many, it’s just wanting to see if it can be done or if the engine would have to be reduced.  New spy photos have been released that look at the engine and it’s looking like keeping the 707 horsepower that the Hellcat engine famously provides will be feasible in a Grand Cherokee.

Autoblog breaks down the first look at the engine per these spy photos.  It’s the first time the engine has been seen and it certainly looks like it’s ready for power.

“As you can clearly see in the slightly noisy engine shot, that’s a supercharger parked on top of FCA’s 6.2-liter V8, just like in the Charger and Challenger Hell-twins.”

As for the rest of the Trackhawk that was spotted, the cosmetic difference between this one and the previous spy photos is minimal.  All-in-all, it is looking like Jeep fans will soon be talking about getting 707 horsepower out of their Jeep Grand Cherokee.  What an exciting time!

Jeep Grand Cherokee Getting a Hellcat Engine?

Jeep SRT Grand Cherokee Hellcat Engine - JeepDealerNy

The Dodge Charger and Challenger Hellcats have been popular with muscle car fans and while Dodge is scrambling to keep up with the demand of the public, the question is if any other vehicles will be getting the Hellcat engine. According to Motor Authority, a Jeep may be next in line.

The SRT brand is coming under Dodge and with it most of their performance tech will be placed into Dodge vehicles, such as the Hellcats. Since SRT serviced all of the vehicles under the Chrysler flag, what is going to happen to the non-Dodge vehicles? While the 300 SRT is looking to only be available overseas, SRT is still going to put its stamp on the Grand Cherokee.

While it won’t be a Dodge Jeep or anything like that, the Grand Cherokee SRT is looking to be named Trackhawk, something that was trademarked by FCA a year ago. By going off the five-year strategy FCA showed off, the Grand Cherokee is getting an update here soon and this new Trackhawk could be shown off as part of that update.

A new name and SRT labeling isn’t the only thing, as the Hellcat engine may also be included in the Grand Cherokee Trackhawk, something that Car and Diver seemed to think was a given at this point. As they stated when they first broke the Hellcat engine in a Grand Cherokee, the problem is that the Jeep will need some work to be able to handle the engine’s power and will be undergoing some revisions.

Do you think the Grand Cherokee should get the Hellcat engine?
