Excellent review Rachit sir
Motoroctane plz make a comparison bw meridian vs safari vs xuv700 include both fwd nd 4*4 bcz some might start saying meridian is 4*4 nd all so then d video would be justified
Pedal shifter? What kind of transmission meridian provides?
Tu ya to Hindi bol ya English bol ....jab m Tera video dekhta hu Hindi English mix bolta h
Bhai bohot ghuma ghuma ke bolte ho 😂
Meridian is actually very capable and premium. Took a test drive. I probably would buy it.
Congratulations for that in advance !!🎉
scorpion
No doubt it's best but space is like hatchback plz if you want space for for fortuner
not as capable as other ladder on frames in this segment
My opinion is same
I own a jeep wrangler and became a fan of jeep brand since then, its really capable and promising 🙏
May 29 2023: still in love with the car. In 6 months my confidence level of driving such a huge SUV has increased many folds in the congested roads of Bangalore. No complains so far . First free service is due now.
Dec 24 2022: Just got to Hyderabad from Bangalore doing 615kms door to door. Completed the entire journey in 10 hours with 2.5 hrs of breaks. So basically completed 615 kms jn 7.5 hours. The handling , acceleration , braking and manoeuvring at high speeds is WOW! It is a beast on the road. Instils so much confidence at high speeds. Since I had family travelling with 4 adults and 2 kids I did not exceed 160 km/hr.
Nov 2022:
14 days into owning the Jeep Meridian MT 4x2 Limited Option. Here are the observations:
1. Great Suspension. Glides over breakers. In a city like Bangalore is a blessing
2. So easy to handle and manouver. I am a Volks Polo owner as well and this huge car manouvers as easily as sedan/hatch. No problems at all driving in a congested city such as Bangalore.
3. No body roll for such a huge SUV.
4. Amazing safety features
5. The interiors look so plush. Every time i step into the car i get that wow factor.
6. The music system is A class.
7. The surround camera resolution and quality is top notch. Parking is so easy for such a big SUV.
8. Turning radius is good.
9. People often check out the car while it is on the road. The exterior looks and road presence is stunning.
10. Mileage is something i am keeping an eye. Currently it shows 7.5 but i have driven mostly in the super congested traffic at peak hours. This is improving and should dramatically improve when i take it on the highways and post first service.
11. Third row surely will be a bit cramped for a full grown adult but is perfect for small people and kids.
12. Braking even at high speeds is great.
13. AC is very good!
14. I am in love with the auto features such as auto wipers, lights, etc.
15. The gear box could have a bit more sturdy but it is Ok. I am used to the Volkswagen solidness and sturdiness.
16. Finally the whole experience from PPS Jeep in Bangalore from test drive to delivery to post sales is simply wow! Congratulations to the team there.
At this price point of 35-40 lacs looks like it is a great value for money car. I will keep updating over time.
I test drove it and found the initial pickup to be lacking unless you press the pedal hard. The throttle response is just not there below the 2k RPM. On an inclination therefore it felt sluggish. The driving aspect was thus a let down IMO, maybe cuz of the vehicle weight n turbo lag combined (i’ll still ignore the slow shifting auto gearbox). What’s your take on it? Do you enjoy driving it? To me the lag was killing the driving experience. I’m used to naturally aspirated engines, i feel that could be the reason too.
@@AshishSharma-he6lf a bit of lag yes but that’s with most cars being introduced …I was very particular about this but am ok with the level of lag on the Meridian compared to the other cars I test drove . But once you cross the 100kmph on the highway it shifts to another league altogether …I just came back from Wayanad and it was a pleasure to drive at 180kmph as well . The stability control and confidence at 180kmph is priceless.
Also I would like to let you know I have driven a VW polo MPI petrol for 8 years before buying the Meridian and I am still praises for the JEEP!
@@RohitKumarForever yeah that’s quite a statement :)
@@RohitKumarForeverthanks for getting back. Did you try XUV700? I found its initial pickup to be better. I understand your point about Meridian, but my concern is that me being in city the usage mostly is well below 100km/h, the low n mid range performance therefore becomes important for driving pleasure. It will be on fairly less occasions that i’ll be touching highway figures. Sure the XUV isn’t as premium an offering but there are hardly any alternate i could think of, that has goodness of both the worlds.
Got my meridian on June 27th. Considered Fortuner and Kia Carnival before zeroing on Meridian. I feel its a value of money product in this price range. XUV 700 is also good but I have been driving a XUV 500 for 8 years and wanted to test a different brand, plus in my view though 700 is feature rich it lacks the luxurious feeling that a meridian offers.
Congratulations on the purchase. Buddy I’m also planning to buy. How is the AC performance of the car? Is it chilled and keeps occupants comfortable in sweltering heat. Your inputs will be useful
@@dhirajshetty2034 so far no complaints. It is a head turner for sure.
@@anujtrivedi well I am also considering it but darr lagta h after exit of Ford.....
@@abhisheksaxena6778 Ford’s business strategy was different and flawed. They aimed for selling more products with a lot of localized models and it didn’t work with tough competition. But Jeep’s strategy is different. Aimed at premium segments, their volumes will always be low but will remain consistent. So don’t see any problem with Jeep in India. And with renegade launch also planned, their numbers will increase too.
@@bangcupid007 hope so

Vai ye comment karne ki soch raha tha 🤣🤣
Rachit, Are you reviewing or Promoting this car. You are sounding too sweet for Jeep Meridian today.
I do own a Jeep Compass
It’s an amazing suv with great build quality .
Jeep is an amazing brand.
What about the service?
Jeep is my favourite brand since childhood, once any suv looking vehicle was generally known as Jeep.
Which Jeep you first knew was actually Mahindra one
Once there was a time when I called Tata sumo,safari,Scorpio and bolero as jeeps.I even don't know that it's called SUVs for long time.
How old are you
Since childhood????
Bhai abhi 6-7 saal pehle hi toh India mein aayi hai company
@@furiousmotivates2307 Mahindra was just the licenced manufacturer of Jeep in India.
But I have 1 solid reason to reject it
No money
Destroyed in seconds 🤣
Jeep Meridian vs Scorpio N 4wd
Please make this video
And tata safari, xuv 700 and scorpio classic with jeep meridian and scorpio n
Compare it with new scorpio.... both have same power & are 4×4. Lets see what you get for twice the price?🤔😉
You will get more safety and premiumness in Jeep
@@faded_dream9694..... then what about xuv700? Both points tick in xuv 700
Mahindra's service quality sucks!
and xuv700 is full of bugs!
Wow that rhymed well.. 🤪
@@kedarnath_grandhe .... i guess the customer dosent select cars by phrases & rhyming statements🤣
@@m.b3079 well they do focus on the bad service part unlike u
I was searching for a car having proper 7 seat capability to accommodate 6-7 adults. Now days except Safari and Benz GLS, are the only cars having enough space for 3rd row adult seating. After spending so much money its hard for me to go for these cars where 3rd row is for kids only. I know you will say just look for safety, features, comfort and drivability but space is also equally important when you say 7 seater SUV. If this is the case then don't say 7seater SUV, just call them as 5+2kids SUV.
go for gloster or enter luxury segment .. 7 seater means 7 people with boot

50 lakh no premiusness - fortuner😁😁
I’ve been hearing complaints about using the same engine of compass in the Meridian and how it is underpowered. These comments are coming from people who never took the test drive. I drove the car and wow! You feel like you’re driving a mini tank. The vehicle is just 110 kgs heavier than compass and almost 220 kgs lighter than xuv700 due to the usage of high strength steel. And the low end torque seems to be better tuned than compass so that you don’t feel the initial turbo lag. Most importantly it gives a worry free fuel mileage in the long run. Booked immediately after the first test drive!
go for scorpio n , its much better in nearly every aspect
Meridian vs xuv700?
@@space0015 I prefer Meridian for the better ride and handling, braking, fit and finish, safety, ground clearance and peace of mind
@@tanmaysinha7002 how is it better in every way? First of all, it’s body on frame. That itself doesn’t make it suitable for everyday city drives due to body roll. And it’s 2 segments below Meridian
@@bangcupid007 meridian technically sits in the xuv and safari segment( quality levels are better but the amount they are charging is just too much) , Scorpio is a fortuner kind of vehicle which everybody won't like , its more of a adventure vehicle .. it remains to be seen how good it is in terms of bodyroll and all , but in off roading it is surely better than meridian
I have compass since 2018. Just amazing nvh level is really good. U can appreciate the quality when u sit in other car.
I have i20 since 2013... U can appreciate the quality too when sit in other cars
@@SohailKhan-eh1ck off course bro Hyundai makes better car than Maruti. I have 2013 elantra also it had all the features and even today the quality is really very good
Dose someone else feel the sides look like range rover?
No 👎
Jeep meridian my fav 😍 car and motor octane always🤘🤘
American brands never compromise in safety and build quality
majority of brands do not compromise .. except hyundai kia and suzuki
@@tanmaysinha7002 Hyundai also doesn’t compromise in safety in America
@@itsmepaahinath9789 unsafe cars dont exist in america .. i was talking about indian market
@@tanmaysinha7002 I was referring to the double standards of every company which isnt in the case of JEEP
@@itsmepaahinath9789 only hyundai kia and suzuki have double standards , we cant say about jeep until it enters the budget segments ... 20 lakh se upar to har company safe car de rahi hai waise bhi
No doubt much better and premium than Foyota Tortuner 😅😅😅
Lmao 😂
Still MG Gloster most luxorious and premium car in this segment...
Jeep my favorite car brand. ❤ from Nagaland.
After watching whole video people gonna say fortuner is best because resale & reliability 😂😂😂
Wow you are so good when you compare fortuner (50 lakhs car) with this car that is awesome
I saw in real life damn it's looks premium ❤️❤️
Is it just me or Rachit gradient matches his shirt with the color of car he talks about 😄. Nicely Done ! Thanks for the Video M.O.
Great car, bad timming. With Tata and M&M improving, this is going to struggle.
Yes bro 🙌 I really want to see tata and mahindra kick the brands like maruti,hyundai,kia,Renault and other low safety car brands but jeep is a magnificent one but still tata and mahindra should succeed
Nice car !
you never let us disappoint
Is jeep brand reliable in India? Eg; Future Run, maintance cost & parts accessibility etc?
Its best. At the price available. Its underrated. Its choise of selected people.
Pity I bought the Jeep Compass last year. Jeep Meridian looks like a unique mix of largeness and luxury. Jeep has another potential winner at their hands.
compass is also a underrated car,only very few people know its potential
@@BB-lf7kz best dynamics but nothing else much
No Sir. Meridian is nothing but a slightly over stretched Compass for which Jeep expects you to pay a lot more. The 3rd row seats are a joke. We have a Compass. Meridian has no merit. There are far better existing and upcoming options.
@@JackBlackSM liited compass cost u 30lakhs with 4x4.this meridian cost u 36lacs.i do not feel your point is valid.
@@BB-lf7kz and 4*4 Meridian costs you above 45 lacs …
Jeep should try the range between 10-25 lakh then their sell will boom 💥💥💥💥
I think JEEP would want itself to be known as a premium brand
Isnt Jeep Compass in that range?
@@trijit96 18-35 lakh is the range of Compass
@@itsmepaahinath9789 he said upto 25 so there is
I wish you would said the same for Volkswagen group that they don't compromise on safety and don't alter the build quality of the car
VW group vehicles have a start difference in fit,finish and materials between international variants and Indian variants . But Indian variants are also decent . The jeep gives you exactly the vehicle from abroad .
I had test driven meridian and compass both before purchasing, they are great products so great that they can even perform better than some cars from segment above but I was worried a lot about their service as both their test drive vehicles were in pretty bad shape and I got reviews from a owner that their service and part availability is not that good? Can someone suggest is it true ?
If one can get such a wonderful car within 35-40 lacs, then why would one pay 40 lacs for the boxy looking primitive (in terms of feature) piece of Toyota Forutuner?
After watching this, I give Meridian 9/10 v Fortuner 4/10....
PickUp Truck 😂 My friend is criticising about fortuner I think 😂
Great vedio as always rachit sir || ya jeep is great product but the new scorpio 🦂 N is tough competitor for jeep . We need comparison vedio on Scorpio N vs jeep meridian 😍 💯
5:22 No fortuner harmed here 😂
Review hai ya advertorial ?
Endeavour aur Alturas me baad ye ek gadi hey jo mera fevourite hey .
Y u stopped indexing the videos? Plz index it, it's very helpful and time saving.
I think camparo is coming soon
i am first buyer form punjab merdian 4x4 limited . this suv excellent than fortner which i had before 4x4 fortner had body roll in hole fortner loses stability and jeep engine and 9 speed gear excellent i can say futuristic family car
its not a fortuner competitor .. its more like a all wheel drive premium version of current tata safari
@@tanmaysinha7002 you don't say..looks like you really hate jeeps for some reason..you leaving comments all over the place..test drove both fortuner and meridian.. meridian is leaps and bounds ahead in terms of premium interiors, materials used, ride quality..toyota has 90s interiors with a bouncy ride (expected with BoF) in a 50l suv ..go figure.. they are riding on there reliability card only..have booked meridian and no regrets..just coz they have a powerful engine and a toyota badge I didnt want to waste money on an overpriced piece of junk..
@@desertracer278 i just said its not in the fortuner segment bro , eg no matter how good a polo is , can you compare it to harrier? meridian is an extended monocoque fwd compass with option awd while fortuner is complete different ladder on frame rear wheel driven 4*4 vehicle , both have their on pros and cons but are entirely different... infact if you see logically and technically, scorpio N is more of a fortuner competitor than meridian , whereas meridian is in xuv 700 segment , but since quality levels and dynamics are much better it is priced high ( actually a bit too high , should have been atleast 5 lakh cheaper to justify the price )
@@desertracer278 i am not at all a toyota fan , in fact i regard it as the worst compamy operating in india .. i hate it when toyota fans are like reliability's is everything we dont need anything else , the interiors, quality levels , price justification , comfort is just so damn bad in fortuner
@@desertracer278 if i had been in your place i would have gone for xuv 700 or alturas g4 ( again a very very capable LOF suv) coz for me vfm proposition matters a lot , if the meridian had better 3rd row seats and 190 to 200 bhp engine it would have been worth the price for sure
Wish it had a petrol engine option.
I would definitely choose this one instead of fortuner It is a complete package for ne
Which is Comfertable car within
Compare to keep meridian vs Citroen c5 aircross
Would be great if you guys come with a comparison between Meridian vs Fortuner and thanks for the great content you are providing all the time 👍🏻
this car is too premium to compare with fortuner
My friend got this about 2 weeks back, absolute stunner
What’s the mileage and comfort
@@harshitkumar8565 bro comfort is ultimate, no match, mileage I’m not sure, around 8 I’m guessing
I want to see the headlight throw of meridian 🥲
69th comment 🌝
For the Indian market it needs to have a better road presence…needs to look bigger..I think it will sell better then
I think it is underpowered for it
One reason not to consider Jeep is my best budget
Sir, please cover jeep compass trailhawk and it's off-road capability.
You make good informative videos ❤️
It has almost everything..bt Sadly IT WONT SELL... 😀😀...take example of this comment sec. 99% people WONT BUY😄😄..including Me 😄😄
it does not has everything .. lacks a lot even when compared to a 12-20 lakh scorpio , specially lacks a good engine , ladder on frame chassis
@@tanmaysinha7002 yeh bhi sahi hai👍👍
Jeep has already recieved 1200 bookings
@@arunjyothy2158 thats gud numbers..bt wen u compare it the competition...i think atleast min 1500 should be the target....on a consistent basis
@motoroctane What is the safety ratings (Global NCAP) for Meridian and Compass cars which are sold in India specifically?
Apart from the engine, I feel it's the perfect luxury SUV for the Indian market at the price point it's at. I still feel engine could throw out more power, upwards of 185bhp & better torque around 400Nm. More power is required in such a huge car, otherwise whats the point.
Jeep meridian is premium SUV with 5 star build quality and less body roll bcz suv height is low
Motoroctane 🔥
Can't understand why do car makers launch underpowered vehicles in India, except for some. Harrier, safari - poor, jeep compass & meridian - poor, hyundai tucson - poor, XUV 700- good, fortuner - good, vw tiguan- good, skoda kodiaq- good. Apart from fortuner, all have 2.0L petrol/diesel engine.
i have jeep from last one year and i strongly recommend NOT to buy this car.
Very narrow bench, 2nd row just enough for 2 persons :(
Jeep meridian best looking luxury SUV with good mileage under 35 lakhs
Wouldn't go for it. Will put some more money and go for Fortuner 4×4At diesel.
Have driven cars like Chevrolet cruze, Honda civic , Honda CRV and currently Mahindra XUV 500 AT W11 opt diesel
Title should be why not to buy Jeep meridian.
Overpriced.
Underpowered.
Cannot seat 7 adults.
Sparse dealer network.
By buying overpriced products we encouraging companies to not create VFM products.
Ford,Skoda vw and Jeep used to known for built quality no matter which you country you buy them from. But Now Skoda and VW got out from the list as they making cheap plastic and metal nowadays in India. Ford left the market. So Jeep is the only one now with good build quality- Pricey. So entry level audi bmw and volvo are there as well
4:27 roasted fortuner indirectly
There is a reason why American car companies don't succeed in India. They think they can fool the people and get away. Meridian is nothing but a slightly stretched Compass and for which Jeep expects you to pay a lot more. Can you believe this! Best avoided. And shame on MotoOctane for misleading it's subscribers. There are existing and upcoming options that are far better than the Meridian. The third row seats are a such a joke! Just for the name sake. It's just a 4 seater. That's all. Useless vehicle given the price point.
Jeep meridian old design engine no power and tourq also Diseal no value package also high price fail project stop 🛑 miss review public know who is strong 💪 Xuv700, also sunroof is not necessary for Safty purposes and technical bodybuilt issue, no petrol power and tourq engine?
Kya majak thaa ye? 11:46 pe 3 logg vaaala comparision seriously? Aapke normal review mein dekha hai 3 logg vaaala comparison?
Not against paid promotions, but you people are a trustworthy channel. And giving out this kind of reviews with all positives should atleast have a disclaimer ki bhaisaab company paid & promoted hai, but our views are partially independent.
NOPE! They are done for . this is india they are doing what ford did . also you are talking about cost cutting and quality with fortuner being the best selling. Ford has tried and the jeep has sued Mahindra in U.S. over 70 years old design of willy for which Mahindra had all the rights! good luck jeep chrysler.. also thoda to sharam aani cahiye intna bada auto journalist but he will not mention it shame on you man .
well defined features...liked analysis fone n shared with us...thanks Rachit
Superb car... ☝☝☝💪💪💪
Soon it will be highest selling suv. Once u drive this beast then No one will buy brezza, crera, Harrier etc
Very Good Video For Jeep Meridian Ki Motor Octane.✌👌
fortuner with more premium interior, more features, more stability at high speed, better ride and with good mileage for 5 lakhs less the only thing is 3rd row has less space
Power and torque
@@ayushjha5781 depends on your requirements obviously
I agree with your point on Jeep offering the same quality, build and safety globally. I drive a Jeep Compass Model S Petrol (2022). Many owners including me have noticed that it has rattling issues (noises) from door panels or infotainment area while driving (doesn't depend on speed). Also the AC cooling is quite ineffective compared to much cheaper cars.
1. Rattling issues persist despite service centers attempt to fix it. It is tough to believe that this is an issue globally.
2. A/C cooling remains ineffective even after servicing.
Did you notice this in Meridian also?
Yes - off lately Compass and Meridian owners have rattling.
Even i drive same car model s petrol and i was facing rattling noise from centre console and doors, i went to jeep service centre and they were unable to fix it and than i asked mechanic to use lubricant spray in all the doors and gaps in centre console and it’s been one year i never faced such stupid rattling noise, tbh it used to irritate me a lot but thankgod its gone
Total regret after buying meridian
Worst servicing and customer experience
Within a few months it starts showing problems and the mechanics at jeep cant even figure out what the problem is
are you saying that Jeep exports a different quality car to under-developed countries in Africa ? I think that point was unnecessary !
Aisa Q lag raha hain ye video dekh kar scorpio N wale bhatak jayenge why today
Really this car is very nice, i experienced test drive
Jeep meridian in ADF be must
Sir, can we move the n160 bike slowly by only it's clutch? If yes then please🙏🙏 upload a video.
I own a jeep meridian and seriously the fit and finish is very bad and also not so good on fuel consumption it's just 7kmpl suspension is also not up to the mark a taller person will face a problem with tilt steering and display not visible due to the steering comes in between the eye sight
I think kodiaq is also a good option
Too expensive with such features ..i cn go for german
Exterior resembles Tata Hexa..
Big daddy SUVs ke buyers mostly rural areas se related log hai ....cities me bhi wahi log hai jo aate wanhi hai ...unko ye car bilkul bhi attract nahi karegi ....India is not USA ...yanha gadi ka use se jyada looks frst priority hota hai ...jidhar ye gadi utni impressive nahi hai ...
@jeep walo creta automatic ka gear nob consider karo. It feels sooooooo premium. Copy that. Feels like airplane
For Fortuner fanboys, so ya guys this thing is far better than Fortuner
Please make a comparison video between meridian and xuv700
*I own this car since 2 years , let me tell the truth this is best car but underrated bcs of not getting proper attention from people*
jeep compass or tata harrier
which one you should recommend
You talk to much.Cut short , come to the point and don’t beat around the bush . Have to wait till one gets the point.
Reasons not to buy : there is no ADAS , lane assist and adaptive cruise control. Ventilated seats ??
Hello
Please tell me, should I buy 2nd hand gypsy for traveling and Off-roading? Or new Thar? Also when new ginny will launch?
What if I buy 2nd hand gypsy get any issue? Parts, service?

Buy a thar. Gypsy is too Raw for daily use.
