The dimensions and specifications of the 2022 Jeep Meridian has not been officially shared yet. However, according to reports, the Meridian SUV is likely to get a 2.0-litre petrol engine under the hood. Jeep may also offer a diesel unit as well on the new three-row SUV to be manufactured locally.
The engines in the 2022 Meridian are likely to come mated to an eight-speed automatic gearbox. The top variants of the 2022 Meridian SUV are likely to get four-wheel drive option too.
The appearance of the 2022 Jeep Meridian may remind of the Compass SUV, which is already on offer in Indian markets since 2016. However, there are certain design changes in the Meridian that will make it stand apart from the five-seater SUV. For instance, the Jeep Meridian will be offered with redesigned LED headlights with LED DRL units, fog lamps, LED taillights, mounted camera on the ORVMs. The grille, which is expected to carry Jeep's traditional seven-slats, are likely to be redesigned to look slightly different from the one seen on Compass.
The interior of the Jeep Meridian SUV is likely to come with features like a 10.25-inch main infotainment screen, a panoramic sunroof, four-zone climate control and front ventilated seats.
2022 Jeep Meridian SUV will sit above the carmaker's five-seater compact Compass SUV. When launched, the Meridian SUV is likely to be priced above the Rs-35 lakh mark. It will take on rivals such as Toyota Fortuner, MG Gloster and Skoda Kodiaq among others.
