Helloall, sorry to revive an older thread but I'm looking at a 2014+ SRT8 Jeep for the wifey mobile. I will also use it to occasionally pull my 20' enclosed trailer with a ~3200 lb car, so approximately 6200 lbs. I understand the tow rating is 7200 but with cargo, gear, etc, I'll be close to the max.
Performance& mpg. Except for the SRT8, every 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee comes standard with Chrysler's 3.6-liter V6 good for 290 hp and 260 pound-feet of torque. A five-speed automatic transmission
TheJeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 demands respect because it offers the performance – and handling if the road allows – to match its antagonistic appearance. It’s also R500 000-plus cheaper than the BMW X5M and Mercedes-Benz’s ML63 AMG. Yes, you notice the difference in terms of technology, performance and quality.2024Jeep Grand Cherokee. 39,535 - 65,360.

060 times are very close but everyday driving is much more refined with the 8 speed. The 35-75 mph time is almost four seconds quicker with the 8 speed vs. 5 speed. That is more "real world" driving. 0-60 is cool for bragging rights but not many people go full throttle from a dead stop to 60 mph in normal driving.SnO2.
