Scoop! Jeep Meridian spied in production guise

The Compass-based 3-row SUV is sold as the Commander in some international markets.

A test mule of the Jeep Meridian with production-ready bodywork has been spotted. The 7-seater SUV is expected to be launched in India later this year.

The Compass-based 3-row SUV is sold as the Commander in some international markets. The SUV gets an upright front fascia with a slim grille, sleek headlamp clusters, square-ish wheel arches, just like the Compass and a pair of slim LED tail lamps at the rear.

The interior of the Meridian / Commander is similar to the updated Compass. It has a floating touchscreen infotainment system and is expected to get a digital instrument cluster as well.

In India, the Meridian is likely to be offered with a 2.0-litre 4-cylinder diesel engine paired with a 48 V mild-hybrid system. I will power all four wheels via a 9-speed automatic transmission and an all-wheel-drive system.
