Jeep оценил мощнейший внедорожник в мире в стоимость «Демона»

Компания Jeep назвала стартовую цену на Grand Cherokee Trackhawk, который в фирме называют мощнейшим и быстрейшим внедорожником в мире. 717-сильную машину оценили примерно в ту же стоимость, что и экстремальный дрэговый масл-кар Dodge Challenger Demon — это 85 900 долларов.

Компания Jeep назвала стартовую цену на Grand Cherokee Trackhawk, который в фирме называют мощнейшим и быстрейшим внедорожником в мире. 717-сильную машину оценили примерно в ту же стоимость, что и экстремальный дрэговый масл-кар Dodge Challenger Demon — это 85 900 долларов (на тысячу дороже «Демона»).

Подробностей о комплектациях такого Jeep пока нет, однако прием заказов в США начнется уже на этой неделе. По умолчанию показанный весной 2017 года Cherokee Trackhawk оснащается компрессорной «восьмеркой» объемом 6,2 литра — тем же агрегатом, что используется для Dodge Challenger Hellcat.

Внедорожник с восьмиступенчатым «автоматом» способен набирать 96 километров в час за 3,5 секунды, а его максимальная скорость равна 290 километрам в час. Дрэговую дистанцию в четверть мили (402 метра) автомобиль проезжает за 11,6 секунды.

Экстремальный Challenger Demon может разгоняться до 96 километров в час за 2,3 секунды, а 402 метра он проезжает за 9,65 секунды. При базовой стоимости 84 995 долларов ряд опций для «Демона» предлагается всего за доллар — это оборудование, необходимое для перенастройки машины для дрэговых заездов. Вместе с тем за «комфортные» опции придется отдать около десяти тысяч долларов сверху.

Has the Demon possessed the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk?

Jeep’s hot-rodded grocery-getter is about to get even quicker

More Photos

The Demon that Dodge chased from the Challenger range in 2018 might soon possess the Jeep Grand Cherokee. Spy shots taken near a testing facility suggest that before it retires, Jeep’s flagship SUV will receive the mighty, 6.2-liter V8 engine that powered the limited-edition Challenger Demon.

Our spies spotted a Grand Cherokee Trackhawk fitted with an unusual hood we’ve never seen before. The standard, 707-horsepower model has a pair of power domes you could almost call discreet. The prototype depicted in the spy shots gains a much bigger bulge positioned behind a scoop that looks functional. It stands to reason that a mammoth supercharger requires both.

Shoehorned in the Demon, the supercharged, 6.2-liter Hemi V8 made 840 horsepower when burning race gas, though that figure dropped to 808 when it slurped premium unleaded. The Challenger Demon took 2.3 seconds to reach 60 mph from a stop, and it popped a wheelie for nearly three feet. Imagine a Grand Cherokee capable of delivering similar performance.

Stuffing the Demon engine between the Grand Cherokee’s fenders would allow Jeep to brag about building the most powerful SUV on the market. To add context, the Lamborghini Urus offers 650 horsepower from a twin-turbocharged, 4.0-liter V8. Shop at Porsche, and the most you can drive home is 670 horsepower courtesy of the gasoline-electric Cayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid. Bentley pegs the 190-mph Bentayga Speed’s output at 635 horsepower.

Jeep hasn’t publicly announced plans to release an even wilder evolution of the Grand Cherokee Trackhawk. Assuming that’s what the spy shots depict, the model will likely make its official debut in the coming months, and it will arrive in showrooms during the 2020 model year. It might be the last variant of the current-generation Grand Cherokee; Jeep has already started testing the model’s replacement, and we’re expecting to see it in the metal by the end of the 2020 calendar year.

How the hell can a Jeep Trackhawk beat a Dodge Demon in a drag race?

Here’s a properly detailed answer for this question

Although this may sound more like bragging rights opportunity for the Jeep owners, this scenario is as feasible as it is to create a Sport Utility Vehicle packing 707 hp. I mean, no one thought about that until some fetishist engineers at FCA did.

There’s quite a difference between the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk and the Dodge Challenger SRT Demon, in pretty much any area, and the Demon is the obvious favorite in a drag race between the two. Compared to the Demon, the Trackhawk is heavier, less aerodynamic, and has about 130 hp, 125 lb-ft less. On the drag strip, no all-wheel-drive system can make up for this handicap. That’s until you find out what the Demon’s weakness is.

So is it really possible for the Trackhawk to beat a drag-spec Dodge Demon at its own game? We’ll let Jason Fenske from Engineering Explained tell what makes this absurdity happen.

History Of SRT In 11 Vehicles

The Street & Racing Technology division at FCA was born as an amalgamation of the Dodge Motorsports, Mopar, the Dodge Viper development team, and the Prowler development team. Under the helmsmanship of Dan Knott, a team of diehard enthusiasts at the top of their engineering game started tuning cars for Dodge, Jeep, and Chrysler.

Once «Team Viper» had cemented their place in history, it was merged with «Team Prowler» to become Specialty Vehicle Engineering (SVE). From 2002-2004 the division was renamed Performance Vehicle Operations (PVO) and used SRT as a brand. In 2004, the division was officially renamed SRT. Curiously, though, the first car to go under the knife was not a muscle car or even a car with a big engine. And that’s where we’ll start our list of the most significant SRT cars that helped get the division to where it is today.

1. Dodge Neon SRT-4 (2003-2005)

SRT’s first car under its new name gave the import tuning crowd a sharp shock. In 1998, then Executive Vice President of Chrysler Product Development and Design, Tom Gale, had visited SEMA and figured that the Dodge Neon might be ripe for a slew of performance features. It went through heavy development and experimentation, including the use of a supercharger before it finally dropped on the public with a heavily modified turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine. The chassis was also heavily modified, and the Neon SRT-4 was instantly loved by the automotive media. From there, it went on to dominate in its class in motorsport. It also took the world land speed record for four-cylinder production cars in 2006, topping out at just over 226 mph.

2. Dodge Viper SRT-10 and SRT Viper (2004–2017)

The Dodge Viper is a hellacious car powered by a V10 with a little help from the then Chrysler-owned Lamborghini. It was raw and uncompromising on power and handling, so, obviously, it needed even more hardcore versions. The Viper SRT-10 replaced both the GTS and RT/10 models in 2004, and the engine displacement grew to 8.3 liters. It generated 510 hp and 535 lb-ft of torque in the coupe version, which followed the convertible onto the market. In 2008, displacement crept up to 8.4 liters along with a host of extra engine modifications. That included some engineering wizardry from SRT to create variable exhaust-valve timing in a single-cam engine. In 2010, the Viper SRT-10 had 600 hp and 560 lb-ft of torque.

The last generation saw a complete redesign of the Viper by SRT and came in just two versions for 2012. There was the SRT Viper and the premium trimmed SRT Viper GTS. The 8.4-liter V10 made 640 hp on launch and 600 lb-ft, but horsepower went up by five in 2015.
