Jeep India has revised prices across most of its SUV lineup, making its models more expensive for buyers nationwide. Like several other automakers, the American brand has adjusted prices in response to rising costs, with increases ranging from Rs. 25,000 to as much as Rs. 2.49 lakh, depending on the model.
The price revision applies to the Compass, Meridian, and Wrangler, while the flagship Grand Cherokee remains unaffected.
Compass
The Jeep Compass, the brand’s entry-level offering in India, has received a uniform price hike of Rs. 25,000 across all variants. Following the revision, prices for the Compass now start at Rs. 17.99 lakh (ex-showroom).
At the higher end of the range, the Compass Track Edition with all-wheel drive and a diesel engine is now priced at Rs. 30.95 lakh (ex-showroom). The update places the Compass slightly higher in its competitive mid-size SUV segment, where pricing remains a key factor for buyers.
Meridian
Jeep’s three-row SUV, the Meridian, has also become more expensive. All variants of the Meridian have seen a flat increase of Rs. 35,000.
The revised pricing means the Meridian now starts at Rs. 23.33 lakh (ex-showroom). The top-spec Track Edition has been priced at Rs. 38.17 lakh (ex-showroom). The Meridian continues to target buyers looking for a premium family SUV with off-road capability and Jeep’s signature styling.
Wrangler
The most significant price hike has been applied to the Jeep Wrangler. Prices for the off-road-focused SUV have gone up by Rs. 2.49 lakh, making it the costliest revision in Jeep India’s current lineup.
The Wrangler is available in three variants and now starts at Rs. 66.20 lakh (ex-showroom). The range-topping Willys ’41 Special Edition is priced at Rs. 70.31 lakh (ex-showroom). Despite the increase, the Wrangler continues to appeal to enthusiasts seeking a capable and iconic off-roader.
Grand Cherokee
In contrast to the rest of the range, the Jeep Grand Cherokee has not received any price revision. It continues to be offered in two variants.
The Limited (O) variant is priced at Rs. 63 lakh (ex-showroom), while the Signature Edition costs Rs. 63.85 lakh (ex-showroom). The Grand Cherokee remains Jeep India’s flagship SUV, positioned as a premium offering focused on comfort and performance.
