Bet you can have a whole lot of fun in one of these beasts! Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 Jeep's launch control is standard on SRT8s for consistent, enhanced fast starts of the high-performance SUV. Launch Mode brings the engine, suspension, transmission and driveline together for fast launches from a standstill by revving the engine at a standstill and launching the 5,000-pound SUV like a rocket.Don

What applications would one use "Launch" for? Beating someone to that parking spot at Wall Mart?

Never drove the Jeep, but did own a 2 door 2006 Chrysler Crossfire SRT6 and SON, that sucker, for no more than it weighed had 330 supercharged HP and a little over 300 ftlb of TQ..It was SOOOOOOOO much fun, but at 56, couldn't seem to keep my "foot out of it", and gave it up...one beautiful little car.....:)

I wonder how the "launch" acceleration would affect the TT....

I could care less about the launch feature but overall that is one incredible SUV. A sports car that seats 5-7 and can be driven in 8" of snow...nothing wrong with that.

Couldn't care less about the launch feature but I really like the entire SRT8 lineup, especially the Challenger.

I've seriously considered the Jeep SRT, but just can't bring myself to pull the trigger. $70k is just TOO MUCH for a Jeep.
