Jeep Meridian X Re-Launched Due To Demand

• Priced from ₹29.99-40.33 Lakh
• Comes with stylish updates and added features
• Available with all variants: Limited, Limited(O) & Overland
• Mid-life facelift is in the works for later this year

The Meridian X sports a sleek grey roof and grey-accented alloy wheels. It also includes extra features compared to the regular SUV. These features are side moulding, puddle lamps, programmable ambient lighting, sunshades, an air purifier, premium carpet mats, an optional rear-seat entertainment package, and a dashcam. The price is Rs 50,000 more than the variants it is based on.

Under the hood it is powered by the same 2.0-litre, four-cylinder diesel engine that delivers 170 bhp and 350 Nm of peak torque. Buyers can choose between a 6-speed manual gearbox or an optional 9-speed automatic. It is not yet confirmed whether the X will be available with both gearbox options or if it will offer front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive.

It is due for a mid-life update later this year. Recently spotted during testing, the updated model is expected to feature minor styling tweaks, including updated bumpers and a revised grille.

The biggest upgrade will be the addition of an ADAS suite. Once launched, it will continue to compete with the Skoda Kodiaq, VW Tiguan, Hyundai Tucson, MG Gloster and Toyota Fortuner.
