tuningblog.eu Your magazine about tuning the car
It is hard to believe that the current Jeep Grand Cherokee has been sold almost unchanged since early summer 2010. It's been 6 years that you definitely don't see it as I think. Only for the 2014 model year, the Grand Cherokee was subtly revised and got, among other things, newly styled headlights and taillights as well as modified front and rear bumpers. Even the interior has now reached a premium level. The Grand Cherokee has a cab that can be upgraded with many additional options ex works. Regardless of whether it is heated / ventilated seats, a headliner with a suede look or the black (optionally brown) open-pore wood paneling from the "Summit" variant. The off-roader also scores as standard with Natura Plus leather seats including elaborate stitching and a multifunction steering wheel with leather and wood finish. If you want, you can even get a leather-covered instrument panel and much more. But if that's not enough for you, you can try your luck at the tuner Vilner from Bulgaria and have your vehicle converted into a one-off. This is what happened on this Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 with a 6417cc V8 engine and powerful 470 hp and 630 Nm torque.
Alcantara & everything handmade
The owner, with reference to the British Army, had the initials "SAS" embroidered on the headrests. As far as we know their importance to the Special Air Service department (a special unit of the British Army). But of course it didn't stop with the headrests but, as always, the entire interior was due. Villner built a new red headliner and generally covered the cabin with black and red Alcantara.
The pillars and door panels and the seat belts are also affected. The seat surfaces and the backrests of the seats were also fitted with black Alcantara. The center tunnel is now also wearing an Alcantara garment, making it look much higher quality. The carbon details installed here are not available from Vilner, but are optionally available ex works. The Vilner team has released the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT the days and we are of course pleased to be able to show you the first pictures. After the extensive tuning cure that the Grand Cherokee was allowed to endure as usual in the interior, it is now definitely much higher quality and more individual than the production version. So if you have been thinking about modifying your car, especially in the interior, for a long time, Vilner is certainly an interesting starting point when it comes to doing exactly this work on the vehicle. And for all those who are not necessarily located near the tuner, the vehicle may serve as a template for the tuning partner on site.
