Hennessey Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 Hemi Twin Turbo

When you think of a Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8, you think of a big hemi under the hood and incredible power and performance. Add a Hennessey badge, and you think ridiculous power. Introducing the 805 horsepower, twin turbo, Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 by Hennessey. Known as the 2012 HPE800, the Twin Turbo Jeep will be made in limited quantities, so you better hurry to snatch up one of the 24 Jeeps being custom modified to produce such ground breaking power.

To create 805 horsepower, Hennessey uses a 426 cubic inch Hemi (7 liter), which is a bored-out 6.4L hemi that comes in the SRT8 Cherokee from the factory. The engine creates it's power at 5800 rpm, and also makes 823 ft lbs of torque. So what does all of this translate into? Hennessey says this Cherokee can do 0-60 in 3.1 seconds and 10.9@130 in the quarter mile. Watch out Corvette Z06, you just got your doors blown off by a SUV!

However, for all of this performance and exclusivity, be prepared to shell out some hard earned cash. $235,000 is the price for this Jeep, and gets you into the Hennessey exclusive club of twin turbo madness.
