Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8

The Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 reaches 60 mph in 4.79 s (100 km/h in 5.06 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 13.35 s, tripping the lights at 103.6 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.10 s and the eighth mile in 8.60 s, reaching 100 mph in 12.12 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the Grand Cherokee SRT8

The 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 is an all-wheel-drive naturally aspirated SUV of 2,180 kg with 420 bhp, which works out at 193 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.10 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 1,948th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 2nd quickest of the 68 Jeeps here. Its 103.6 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 9 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 0-60 time?
The Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 reaches 60 mph in 4.79 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 1,948th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 quarter mile time?
13.35 s at 103.6 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 8.60 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.10 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 have?
420 bhp and 2,180 kg, which is 193 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, naturally aspirated, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 250 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8?
Closest here on pace: Jaguar F-Pace P400e AWD (4.77 s), Mercedes-Benz GLE (W166) 500 4MATIC 435 (4.75 s), BMW X5 xDrive40i 380 (4.84 s). Each one can be raced against the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 10 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
