Amazing Beast... Owning it is a pride..

Have been owning this amazing beast sine Jul 2018. I must admit that it has earned me great image and respect among the circles. A wonderful machine that I have owned in ages... Always upto the expectations,... Never complained... I am running 113K Kms on my odometer,, but the performance is still the same as day one. Just to let others know,, I haven't changed my tyers yet.... Still having another 30% of tyre life left...

Don't buy

Never buy any Jeep product that is not fit for Indian customers, lacks service, stud down dealers, is extremely high maintenance, and has the worst real value. I'm already an existing user. Good to drive is the only reason, go for XUV 700, mg, best will Toyota, Tata you regret and suffer after 2 years of this JEEP, thankyou

2022 Jeep Meridian First Drive Review

By Ninad Ambre01 May 2022

The Jeep Meridian is a new three-row SUV for the Indian market and is based on the Compass. Though the interior and powertrain options are similar to the smaller sibling, the Meridian with the brand's uni-body architecture boasts some cosmetic enhancements. Also, it's way bigger in size and goes on to emulate the Grand Cherokee. How does it perform? Well, we drove it recently to know the answer. This diesel-only 4WD seven-seater, upon launch in India, will compete with the MG Gloster and the Toyota Fortuner.
