Commenting on the launch, Nipun J Mahajan, Head of Jeep brand India, said, "We are very excited to launch the special edition of the Jeep Meridian highlighting the duality of the SUV in distinct styling. We’re taking the Jeep Meridian to another level with the new Special Editions, which adds a distinctive look that will stand out on both the off-road trails and on the streets. The additional equipment makes these special editions unique, appealing to a wider customer base."
Powertrain options remain the same with the Meridian getting only the 2.0-litre diesel engine paired with a 6-speed manual and a 9-speed automatic transmission. Both options are available with the Limited and Limited (O) variants. Power is sent to all four wheels on the top trims with 4x4 available.
