Quotes from 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT reviews

In late September, Autoweek.com assigned a pair of its editors to test-drive and review the Grand Cherokee SRT. Here as some of things they found to like about it….

“The Grand Cherokee is a midsized, high-performance SUV with a ton of luxury features and nearly 500 hp to play with when the right road is available.

“I won't rehash the basics of the current Grand Cherokee; you can read about it here and here. Just know it's an outstanding SUV, and one of the reasons Jeep sales just seem to keep climbing. It does everything right, even in basic V6 form.

“Sport mode is where this Grand Cherokee is happiest…the Sport setting completely changes the GC's personality, and you can tell this is where the engineers spent their time. Shifts with the paddles are dual-clutch quick, and with two hands on the fat flat-bottom wheel, you can throw the SRT around in ways that defy its 5,100-pound curb weight.”

“With its launch mode and track settings…you’ll have a heck of a lot more fun in this bruiser than you could have ever imagined.

“Put it in sport mode and forget about the paddle shifters…the push-you-into-your-seat thrust and the growl of the engine do most of the heavy lifting when it comes to selling the package.

“It’s tough to say why I like this so much more than its German counterparts, but I think that if there’s one thing (they) tend to get right, it’s attitude -- from the Challenger Hellcat to this Grand Cherokee SRT, you can tell someone cared about making the act of driving a satisfying, addicting experience. And it’s all in good fun. This thing packs serious muscle, and I’m sure you could take it on the track if you really wanted to, but it somehow never comes off as pretentious.”
