Jeep India has launched an 85th Anniversary Edition of the Meridian SUV to commemorate 85 years of the Jeep brand. Priced at Rs 36.05 lakh (ex-showroom), this special edition model brings exclusive detailing on the outside and some feature enhancements inside. Only 85 units of it will be built. Bookings are already underway at Jeep dealerships and on the Jeep India website.
This limited-run Meridian is marked out by 85th Anniversary Edition decals on the front doors and tailgate, and it also gets a unique logo for the wheel centre caps. It is available in five exterior paint shades, namely Pearl White, Techno Metallic Green, Velvet Red, Grigio Magnesio and Brilliant Black. Additionally, the wheels get a gloss-black finish.
Inside, there’s a new gold accent on the dashboard as well as an ambient lighting package. Customers can further personalise their vehicles through specially curated 85th Anniversary AXS packages, offering accessories such as carpet floor mats, anniversary decal kits, ambient lighting and an illumination package for the panoramic sunroof.
Jeep has also introduced the CARA AI assistant on the Meridian with this limited-run model. CARA is Stellantis’s voice assistant, first introduced with the Citroen Basalt in India. It can be used for navigation, weather information, calls, music and selected vehicle-related functions through voice commands in 52 languages, including major Indian languages. CARA has also been made available on the regular Limited (O) trim of the Meridian, which is now priced at Rs 30.45 lakh – up by Rs 45,000.
The Meridian 85th Anniversary Edition is based on the top Overland trim of the SUV. It remains mechanically unchanged, which means under the hood is a 170hp/350Nm 2.0-litre diesel engine mated to a 9-speed automatic gearbox. It can also be specced with an optional 4×4 system.
Notably, the Meridian 85th Anniversary Edition does not command any premium over the Overland trim it is based on. Given the very limited production run, prospective buyers may want to hurry.
