Any jeep thats not a wrangler isnt really a jeep these days.

Thats more like a Durango with a hellcat engine.

After owning a jeep myself, im off jeep/dodge/chrysler.

But performance wise it sounds very powerful from the review

The Hellcat engine is the Trackhawk, this year they are actually making a Durango Hellcat :gladbron:

For the price and performance is there anything more mean looking or close to it performance wise ? I for some reason prefer it to the BMW and Mercedes counter parts.


my cousin had one of these, said it was bad in the snow, idk how unless you can't fit snow tires on it.

Snow tires come in virtually every standard size. There are for sure snow/winter tires for this - check tirerack.com. It's likely your cousin left the factory "all-season" tires on. Heres a video that shows what a difference winter tires can make.



Theres also another video that shows an 4wd vehicle on summer tires vs a 2WD on winter tires. The 2WD winter tires easily outperform the 4WD car.

idk why he would leave those on, he lives in Minnesota! But I also thought maybe because it's an SRT vehicle, it's lowered to improve speed and handling.
