Imagine a 4-wheel drive, 707 horsepower entrant to fast lane and tracks. Then focus into the highly-anticipated 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk. There is a bit of wait for this monster because delivery will start in the fourth quarter of 2017. However, it is not a bad idea to peruse what the SRT-to-Hellcat really means. There is no pricing yet neither but think of the standard $85,000 tag for premium Jeeps.
While the 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk's engine is almost identical to the Dodge Challenger and Charger Hellcats, there is a bit of difference. The 11.6 PSI boost pressure and 30,000 liters per minute air flow rate need higher oil capacity. The two earlier beasts sport 7 quarts of oil but the 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk has an 8.3-quart capacity. Motor Trend explained that this requirement is necessary to ensure top performance.
In a vehicle built for the active lifestyle, a quart of oil plays a significant role. The 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk offers an unhampered ride through all four wheels plus it flexes a lot of muscles as evident in 7,200-pound towing ability. In fact, the 2018 rendition can boast its all-wheel towing tasks.
The 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk shares the same 8-speed Torqueflite transmission system of the Hellcats, Fox News said. However, users will be happy to note that the 2018 Jeep Cherokee Trackhawk is more flexible. Built for either sporty performance or track, the shifters can be trimmed from 0.5-second Normal mode to 0.25-second Dynamic mode and the 160 milliseconds Track mode.
The 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk is an intelligent ride at all aspects. The single-speed Quadra-Trac transmission was coupled with forged steel chain sprockets for extra strength. Further, power sharing through front against rear torque can be tuned depending on the riding style. When a heavy haul is in its trail, the 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk can be split into 60-40 sharing, the opposite goes for automatic mode. Even the snow poses no threat as the torque can be shared at 50-50.
