Jeep made its comeback in India in 2017 with the Compass SUV, which has been its bread-and-butter product. The American SUV brand also sells the iconic Wrangler SUV and the Grand Cherokee in India. The longer iteration of the Compass, known as the Jeep Meridian, is also sold here as a direct rival to the MG Gloster and Skoda Kodiaq. The Compass is locally manufactured and is also exported to some markets outside India. Jeep uses its Ranjangaon plant, shared with Tata Motors, to locally assemble its SUVs.
The Jeep Compass is the most popular Jeep model in India. It comes with a 2.0-litre Multijet diesel engine, which also powers SUVs like the Jeep Meridian, Tata Harrier, Tata Safari, and the MG Hector. There is no petrol engine option currently available for the Compass. Jeep Compass on road price starts at around Rs 28 lakh. The Compass rivals the Mahindra XUV700, the MG Hector and the Hyundai Creta among other SUVs.
The Jeep Meridian comes with a two or a three row seating layout. It shares the 2.0-liter diesel engine with the Compass and there is no petrol engine on offer. The Meridian rivals the Volkswagen Tiguan R Line, the Skoda Kodiaq, the Toyota Fortuner and the MG Gloster SUVs in India. Jeep Meridian price starts at around Rs 32 lakh in India.
Upcoming Jeep SUV launches include the Avenger SUV, which may come with a pure petrol or petrol hybrid powertrain. There are also talks about a potential Avenger EV for India in the future.
