Most Helpful Review

Before buying take a test drive

Facing rainwater leakage issue in the boot space. We visited in December 2022 now in that rainy season we found heavy leakage in the boot space corner area. Very bad experience. Everybody should check their car leakages because it is in our backside area hence cannot notice if you do not look carefully. Our Kolhapur dealer & JEEP company are aware of this issue but instead of taking back the vehicle to the company they sell it.

Dangerous beast

It was very comfortable and looks like a great dangerous bull. I was very thankful to tayota for releasing this great beast. I felt very comfortable with this car and it was very nice

Jeep Meridian Special Editions First Look

Last month, Jeep India introduced two new special-edition models of the Meridian SUV, dubbed Meridian X and Meridian Upland. The Meridian X is based on the Limited Plus variant, while the Meridian Upland is based on the Limited(O) trim. The special edition Meridians get a distinct look that make them stand out and are capable both on off-road trails as well as the urban jungle. We have seen both these SUVs in person and here is everything you need to know about it.

Toyota Fortuner 3.0-litre 4x4 AT

By Desirazu Venkat10 Mar 2015

SUVs seem to be the mantra chanted by car buyers everywhere and their presence is being felt up and down the segments. What is it that attracts us to these breed of vehicles? It is the simple fact that they exude street credibility that no hatchback or sedan can ever offer. Their menacing presence means everyone gets the hell out of their way.
