The magnificent Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk may be dead and buried, with the Stellantis-owned marque not offering the Hellcat motor in the latest generation. However, countless examples live on, and some of them continue to celebrate their fifteen minutes of online fame.
Case in point, meet another copy of the super SUV, which is more special than its stock self due to multiple modifications. First, it sports a satin black look with several contrasting yellow accents and a few glossy black details here and there.
If you look at the pictures shared recently on social media by Roadshow International, you will also see a few other aftermarket goodies. The transparent hood is one, and so is the new chin spoiler, alongside other features. The Forgiato wheels measure 24 inches in diameter, and they have a bi-tone look, mixing black and yellow. The brake calipers have a yellow finish.
The tinted windows provide privacy to those inside, and once there, they will be surrounded by lots of yellow leather, which was applied to the seats, steering wheel, door cards, center console, and lower parts of the dashboard panel. This Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk also has yellow seatbelts, new headrest embossing, a black headliner, and different floor mats.

Without anyone tampering with its engine, the Grand Cherokee Trackhawk enjoys 707 horsepower (717 ps/527 kW), which is 50 horsepower (51 ps/37 kW) more than the Lamborghini Urus S and Urus Performante. The 0-62 mph (0-100 kph) sprint is a 3.4-second affair; flat-out, it can do 180 mph or 290 kph. As a result, it doesn't need any modifications in the powertrain department.
Mind you, that doesn't mean anything for certain tuners, including the one mentioned above, which has given the pictured super SUV new downtubes and pipes, an ECU remap, and an exhaust tune. The result is spectacular, as the vehicle now puts a mind-blowing 1,150 horsepower (1,166 ps/858 kW) under the driver's right foot. That's enough to make the original Bugatti Veyron jealous, as it has some 150 horses more.
Curious how fast it is with the extra oomph? Well, let's just say it is capable of giving real supercars a run for their money (some of them, anyway). According to Roadshow International, the 0-62 miles an hour takes a neck-snapping 2.9 seconds. As for the top speed, it is 200 mph (322 kph), a 20 mph (32 kph) improvement.
Roadshow's latest tuned Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk is an impressive beast that sits in a superior league. If you were wondering whether you could buy it, the answer is no, as it has already been sold. However, others are available in the company's stock, so you can get in touch with them to see what those are and how much they will set you back.
