Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT Night unveiled

Only thirty examples of the new Grand Cherokee SRT Night are being offered in the UK, making it a proper limited edition. There aren't many exclusive features, though.

The front grille, B- and C-pillars, side window surrounds and badges all gain a matte black finish, plus 20” 'Black Vapor' wheels are fitted. Inside, the highlight is Black Laguna leather upholstery.

Dealers are already accepting orders for the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT Night, which is priced at £69,865 on the road. Customers will have a choice of Brilliant Black or Brilliant White paintwork.

Fuel economy is also decent and, according to the official figures, a TwinAir-powered MiTo will manage 67.3 mpg (4.2 l/100km) on the combined cycle.
