2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT Performance and Engine

6.4L HEMI V8 — Built for Drivers Who Mean It

The heart of this Grand Cherokee SRT is the legendary 6.4-liter HEMI V8, producing 475 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque from the factory. Paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission and full-time 4WD, this SUV rockets from 0 to 60 mph in around 4.8 seconds — supercar territory for a full-size four-door. The 8-speed automatic is buttery smooth in everyday commuting but snaps off lightning-fast shifts when you put your foot down. The SRT-tuned suspension, Brembo brakes, and performance-calibrated all-wheel drive system mean this Grand Cherokee corners flatter and stops harder than any stock Grand Cherokee has a right to. Around Yakima and through the Cascades, that confidence translates directly to real-world driving satisfaction.

Selectable Drive Modes

The SRT comes equipped with multiple drive modes — Auto, Sport, Track, and Snow/Tow — letting you tailor throttle response, transmission shift points, and suspension behavior to whatever the road demands. Whether you're cruising through Yakima Valley or pushing through mountain passes, there's a mode for it.

Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT Features and Interior

The Grand Cherokee SRT isn't just a go-fast SUV — it's a genuinely luxurious cabin with performance intent woven throughout. Expect premium suede-and-leather SRT sport seats with deep bolstering to hold you in place during spirited driving, an 8.4-inch Uconnect touchscreen infotainment system with navigation, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capability (via software updates on this generation), a premium audio system, dual-zone automatic climate control, heated and ventilated front seats, and a flat-bottom SRT performance steering wheel. The interior blends Dodge Viper-era attitude with the refinement of a luxury SUV — it's a genuinely pleasant place to spend time whether you're commuting or road-tripping.

Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT Reliability and Ownership

What Owners Say About the SRT Generation

The 2016 Grand Cherokee SRT benefits from Jeep having refined this generation (WK2) over several model years. By 2016, most of the early-generation growing pains were ironed out. The 6.4L HEMI is an engine with a proven track record for durability — it's also found in the Dodge Challenger SRT and Dodge Charger SRT, where it routinely sees high mileage with proper oil changes and care. At 115,000 miles, this engine has plenty of life left in it when maintained. Owners consistently praise the SRT for its blend of everyday practicality and track-ready performance. The transmission is robust, though like any performance vehicle, ensuring the cooling system and brake pads are in good shape is worth confirming. These are trucks that reward attentive ownership, and buyers who service them regularly are rewarded with a genuinely long-lived performance SUV.
