2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT-8 Start Up, Exhaust, and In Depth Tour 

Huge fan of the entire SRT line. Please keep doing great things Dodge/Chrysler

Drive these things at work everyday and its amazing.

Kyle, you never cease to amaze me! Haha I remember when you use to have only one or two videos of old cars a week, now you're doing used cars to $500,000 Maybach's. Keep up the great work Kyle.

That's the beauty of it. Nothing better than a fast SUV with tons of room for friends and cargo and the ability to go off roading... Also love that Jeep didn't sellout and turn the JGC into a mom's dream "crossover." (I'm looking at you, Ford. What you did to the Explorer is a shame.)

Someone said "Gas light is on, get used to that if you buy one if these!" Not a problem if you have lottery $$$. Can't wait to buy this truck tomorrow!

Gas light is on, get used to that if you buy one if these!

Extraordinary exhaust notes! Carbon fibre finishing on the door handles & dashboard is insane!! (only seen this kind of carbon fibre finishing in the new CLS & SLS Mercedes). Mad respect for the SRT .

no joke your review are on a NEXT level, everyone else who making reviews need to take notes from this guys channel, PRO LEVEL....bawsee

Can you do a review of the 2014 one?

Dude, it is great to make In Dept review BUT, please find a friend to hold the camera and help while you show and explain, because this back and forth, up and down movement really make me sick after 2 min. The point is to change the angle and avoid the unnecessary footage. The benefit is also cutting a lot of time - over 10 min is quite a lot for reviewing one car! Please accept it as "improvement guidelines" not as criticism :)

Those wheels are sweeeeeeeet! and those exhaust outlets are HUGE! And the LED daytime running lights just look amazing!

THIS CAR CAN BE DESCRIBED IN JUST TO WORDS.... DREAM CAR

Zero to 60 mph: 4.6 sec Standing ¼-mile: 13.3 sec Top speed: 160 mph Not quite as in depth but they're the only numbers C/D posted for the 2014 model.

I wanna this so bad😍😍😍😍

Personally, i like the year younger jeep str8, looked more stylish in every way. Especially in black, good combo with the black rims and body kit that it comes with. Probably the best looking SUV i have ever seen.

awesome; so many features. I don't know why someone hasn't put a small refrigerator on this.

Saabykyle04, what do u drive?

excuse me but I'm the PERFECT MAN to judge since I drive the 06 SRT8 JEEP, 488lbs heavier and a couple of inches taller is not 'a bit heavier' it's very heavy, that's why even the added 50hp does NOTHING To improve it's performance numbers, in fact it's slower!! my 06 SRT8 easily outruns it and out corners it as stated in C&D magazine, not to mention 20K more for a slower hemi? that's outrageous!!

I drove this car today at work, HOLY SHIT.. lots and lots of hoursepowers and torque. this car is so damn nice!

He does it all the time, and I like it, you can see the engine being turned and hear the exhaust.

Certainly one of the top 3 best American vehicles on the market right now...possibly the best.

Oh, and the only other thing I wish was the wheels matching up with the car like the previous srt8. I think those wheels and that chiseled look of the last model were simply perfect together.

The Jeep SRT8 is so nice. I sat in one and it blows the older one out-of-the-water. The quality is top notch.

Have a look for the video on here. Most of the 0-60 times he was getting were in the range of 4.7 to 5.5 depending on various conditions but he showed his best time on the stopwatch that is built into all new SRT models that was 4.4 seconds

pretty sick, just wished the center mounted exhausts were still available, or even an option

I just sold my old Grand cherokee 4.7 V8 HO WJ, it was fast, comfortable and reliable and never got stuck except in the deepest of mud when it once came up to the axles. I sold it after 90k miles purely because I fell in love with a 5.7 Hemi WK overland. Goes like a bloody rocket, fully loaded and is smooth and as quiet as silk. I might do a video of her one day and post it on here.

Great filming and quality with a small camera, steady hand and great angles. Thanks for the great review!

Hands down best review I have ever seen. Dude you have skills!!!!!!

And now in 2023 we got the Grand Cherokee Trackhawk! Amazing to see how these things evolve

Great video as always Kyle! What a beautiful SUV!

Problem with that nice CF cabin trim is that it eventually delaminates. Fortunately, FC will warranty it, even in 2020.

Why would you ever need anything else!? This is Perfect!!!

What a bad ass SUV! Very informative video. Can't wait for these bad boys to land down under. Cheers for the brilliant upload.

Loving the new vids Kyle! 2012 SRT8 and Hummer H1! Can't get any better.

Great review. I'd love to buy this vehicle, but Jeep has had bad customer reviews over the years. Has this one improved quality wise? Dependability good?

it would be amazing if you did a full one of the first gen cherokee srt8. i would love to see that!

I love this jeep. The wheels look "similar" to the ones on the Ford GT, like an evolution of that design.

Very well done reviews by this guy. Knows his stuff

the most beautiful SUV ive ever seen. i would give my life for one.

This is a really fantastic performance SUV. You really do explain everything about vehicles so well. I don't think the dealer could do a better job. The one thing that he doesn't do is make negative comments about everything. If you watch all those other guys, all they do is bitch about what they think is wrong. That's why I listen to you and no one else. Keep up the excellent work.

That's some of the most beautiful wheels I"ve ever seen

Well considering this Jeep's performance numbers are almost on par with the BMW X5M, Porsche Cayenne Turbo and MBZ ML63 AMG it's actually a great value at around $65k considering the German counterparts cost around $100k. It also won't be as expensive to maintain if you plan on keeping it for a long time.

4.4 seconds is all anyone needs to know. They could've put double the weight that they did and it would still be faster. I've also bashed on more recent models of the cars I've drove in the past because I couldn't afford the new one. You'll get over it eventually...

that SUV sounds awesome

Great review as always Kyle.. Thanks. SWEET CAR!!!

Didn’t even know they made an srt8 for this year model. Very cool

engine sounds fantastic

Listening to this guy is better then going to the dealer! He also probably knows more then most salesman.

i just seen one in person, and omg its the nicest suv ive ever seen!

There is such a huge difference when you compare this car to the old Cherokee you recently did a recap on.

I like how responsive the nav screen is; it's on par with the iDrive system!

HOLY GEEZ KYLE UR ON A ROLL WITH THESE VIDEOS!!!! how do you get time to balance youtube and school, life, ect. ANYWAYS keep on making these great videos

One of the cars I definitely would like to drive ..

i saw this car and sat inside at IAA 2011 in Frankfurt Germany and this car is a beautiful one.

WOW. I HAVE THE 2011 OVERHAUL SUMMIT BUT MAN, I KNOW THAT SRT 8 IS SERIOUS!

i want this car, i seen one the other day. perfect car for a person who wants a high performance SUV!!! great videos saabkyle04, only in-depth video i like, keep up the great work!

Loved it Man,,,,That rumbling V8 like no other,,America should capatilize on this vehicle,,,

forget the looks, that sound is just fearsome!

Cars are getting so advanced now days one day you will be able to get in and beam to another planet!!

Could you Plz kyle Expalain What does the key on the steering wheel do ? the key that has two cars drawn on it chasing each other ?

Just bought one yesterday! VERY happy so far!

I'd give this car a 9. The only point deduction is the back seats could use SLIGHTLY more knee room and it looks a bit to upright and uncomfortable. Other than that, this revised Jeep is MAGNIFICENT ! Absolutely beautiful inside and out. And not plagued with copious amounts of plastic ! Mid 4's 0-60 and low 13's 1/4 with huge brembo 6 piston brakes are great ! I think one would be doing themselves a disservice by not considering this among other sporty suv's.

love it! it's just beautiful in every way

Kyle is THE man!! You made my day man!

Hey I been watching your car reviews and I want to thank you for all the effort u out in them. I am from North Carolina.

Before buying I car, I watch Kyle's review first! Good job man, keep up the good work!

SICK RIDE, MOPAR FOR LIFE.

Far more versatile than a sports car, more room for everything, can tow, doesn't scrape the bottom on speed bumps, excellent in snow. Being as tall as I am, I don't fit well in sports cars, I'm really just more of an SUV/truck guy than a car guy.

man that hemi makes it sound like a truck amazing

Why did you stop showing the cars high beams

your channel is becoming so popular here in Saudi Arabia ...

That voice is annoying me in every single clip. And yes, I still watch it, because this man is the only one who gives proper explanations about a vehicle.

I have a '05 GTO making 580hp RWHP. I was merging onto a empty freeway & one of these was on the freeway just behind where I was merging. Well this thing kicks up it's heels & before I know it, I'm skipping down 2 gears to catch it! I caught up to it & stayed just behind it in the next lane. As we moved past a certain speed, the Jeep hit a speed limiter & I rocketed past. But it was impressive. If I ever had to get a SUV (shudders at the thought), I'd run to Jeep for one of these

Can you do a review of the 2013 jeep grand cherokee limited 4x4

i want one!!!

All the meanwhile I was watching this, I was waiting for the sales guy to say, listen nerd.. your not top gear are you gonna buy the car or not..? :P

is that a 392 hemi?

Here it is - is the best SUV on the planet Earth!

every time I see a tour of something with a hemi, i can't help thinking about that picture of the ricer civic that had a "5.7L HEMI" badge on it that Kyle had on his facebook page LOL!!!

You make the best car video THE BEST!!!!!!

i love this car! When I have the money, I'll buy it!!!!

the 2011-present Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT-8 6.4 L Hemi V8 (SRT-8)

The king of the SRT-8

my dad just got this car a week ago in the exact same color, also a 2012. certified pre owned from an audi dealer with 18000 miles on the clock. ive driven it and its absolutely brilliant. its also probably going to get a new engine. a valve dropped after a week and, maybe, 200 miles driven (idk how much, all i know is he has driven it a lot in the week he has had it). i looked around to see if there are any other 6.4 liter hemis that have had this problem and i haven't seen anything. hopefully this was just a fluke, because it is by far the best car he owns atm.

amazing

great review,only thing missed out was the handbrake could not see one or is it now a footbrake,don.

this is a really good review, thanks

Nice love this SRT8. Has tow mode but no tow hitch? Does that panel remove for a hitch or something? Didnt like the last model cause of the exhaust being in the center cant tow with that.

hey Kyle great review. i was just wondering if u r going 2 make a video on a 2012 dodge charger with an 8spd, and 2012 Chrysler 300 with an 8spd

I really like your reviews.

Exactly what I wanted to see..Thanks kyle

you know kayle i was written a massge for you to tell to do revies for the srt8 and before i done you did it thank you so much

Now I know this is a jeep, so it's got all wheel drive and what not, but how is it in the show? I am from Canada and I am HIGHLY considering purchasing this vehicle next spring. Is there too much power to keep control in slippery snowy weather?

nice car love in the white color it feels heavy and strong love that , some day i will get one

@OffTrackProductions because they have them in HID projector housings with proper cut offs and light pattern to avoid blinding others unlike people that put HID kits in halogen housings which aren't equipped for that kind of light output and blinds other drivers.

Luv this SUV. Mopar for life.

@bounceeer Remote start is great to have here in Phoenix when in the summer it is 120 degrees outside and 160 degrees in your car. Remote start lets you start it up and cool it down while you are getting ready to leave.

Great, detailed write up.

Best SUV in the world, hands down.

that is a AWESOME GRAND CHEROKEE!
