Yahoo Autos Seven High-Performance Cars the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk Out-Accelerates
Don't be fooled by the fact that it's a big, heavy SUV–the Jeep Grand Cherokee Hellcat is seriously quick. Combining a 707-hp Hellcat engine with all-wheel drive results in a 0-60 mph sprint of just 3.5 seconds, according to Jeep. That makes the ultimate Grand Cherokee quicker to 60 than some surprising machines.
Car Throttle compiled a video of seven high-performance machines that a Trackhawk would beat to 60 mph, and we bet you'll be surprised by some of them. The Trackhawk is quicker than a couple of not-too-old supercars, and one notable member of the Dodge SRT family.
Beyond its 707 horsepower and all-wheel drive, the Trackhawk is helped by a system that spools up the supercharger before you get off the line. Similar to the system used in the Dodge Challenger SRT Demon, this ensures that the blower is making boost from the moment you leave the starting line.
So, if you pull up next to a Trackhawk, don't bother trying to outrun it unless you're in something like a Lamborghini Huaracan.
