That's what the folks at Dodge and Jeep are saying about the new Twin Turbo 6 likely to make production for 2023 Jeep models.

Dubbed the Hurricane, the twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter GME-T6 high-output (H.O.) inline-six-cylinder engine was originally intended for mid-year 2022 models, but Jeep pulled the option back down from its website, but not before Moparinsiders.com wrote down the specs:

"The Hurricane features a cast aluminum block and cylinder head. Made from a dual overhead camshaft (DOHC) design, the Hurricane also has four valves per cylinder, has direct injection, and comes withttps://ryno-blog-post-images.s3.amazonaws.com/3e84e77e-84a6-42da-872e-7d5c362bb7b3.jpgh variable intake and exhaust camshaft timing. The engine also consists of an aluminum oil pan, steel connecting rods, and a steel crankshaft.

"Stellantis was quick to say that the H.O. will deliver more than 500 horsepower and 475 ft.-lb. (644 Nm) of torque depending on the application, it is fitted in. According to our sources, the H.O. will be tuned for 507 horsepower when it arrives for Grand Wagoneer duty. The H.O. features a redline of 6,100 rpm and is capable of providing 26 PSI of boost. Stellantis tells us that 90% of the H.O.’s peak torque will be delivered before 2,350 rpm."

It looks like 2023 will be a great year for Jeep fans who love their horsepower. Stay tuned.
