The seven-seater market has been very active in the past few months. Another manufacturer expected to enter this segment is Jeep India. Jeep has already launched the 7-seater version of the Compass as Jeep Commander outside India. In India, it is expected to be called Meridian, as Mahindra owns the Commander trademark. Now we have spotted the Meridian testing in India. In today’s article, we will see this spied Jeep Meridian. 

What was spotted?

We have got spy shots of a heavily camouflaged car at a petrol pump in Manali. This vehicle was escorted by a Jeep Compass. Though the car is heavily camouflaged, it is easy to figure out this Meridian, as it looks considerably bigger than the Compass parked opposite it. The taillamps also look similar to the Commander. The alloy wheels are also different from the Compass.  Jeep might be testing the car in different weather. Earlier, the car was spotted testing in Ladakh doing a high-altitude test. 

What else is expected

The Meridian is based on the Compass, but it gets its own identity. At the front, it gets a traditional Jeep grille with angular LED headlamps. The side profile is where we see the major changes. Due to the extra row, it gets a big and imposing look. At the rear, it gets LED taillights like the Grand Wagoneer. In the interiors, it gets a layout similar to the facelifted Jeep Compass. The Meridian will most likely come with a 2.0-litre diesel engine. It might also come with a mild-hybrid setup. The Meridian is expected to get features like Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS), ventilated front seats, Alpine sound system, 10.25-inch infotainment system, panoramic sunroof, electronic parking brake and much more. 

Expected launch and pricing
