What’s new in the Jeep Meridian Track edition?

Jeep has taken the already robust Meridian and given it a track‑focused makeover. The front fascia now sports a fresh grille, while the side profile is punctuated by 18‑inch diamond‑cut alloy wheels that scream sportiness. A signature Track hood decal and a dedicated Track logo sit proudly on the rear, signalling the model’s exclusivity. That matters because visual cues instantly differentiate the special edition from the standard Meridian on the road.

The changes aren’t skin‑deep. Inside, the second‑row seat is slid forward by 140 mm, creating a near‑seamless path to the third row. The cabin feels more like a lounge than a utility vehicle, thanks to suede‑wrapped inserts and a piano‑black bezel around the infotainment screen. This changes things for families that need three rows but refuse to compromise on comfort.


Powertrain and performance

The heart of the Track remains the 2.0‑litre diesel unit that powers the regular Meridian. It churns out 168 bhp at 4,000 rpm and a healthy 350 Nm of torque available from 1,750 rpm. Mated to a 9‑speed automatic transmission, the powertrain delivers smooth shifts and respectable fuel economy for a vehicle of this size.

Two drivetrain options are offered:

  • Two‑wheel drive (2WD) – ideal for city commuters who value efficiency over off‑road capability
  • Four‑wheel drive (4WD) – adds a low‑range gearbox and enhanced traction for rugged Nepalese terrain

The combination of torque and gearing gives the Track a confident pull from stand‑still, useful on steep hill climbs that are common in the Himalayas. That matters for anyone who plans weekend getaways to Pokhara or the Annapurna foothills.

Power 168 bhp @ 4,000 rpm
Torque 350 Nm @ 1,750 rpm

Inside the cabin: luxury meets utility

Jeep’s interior overhaul is where the Track truly shines. The second‑row seat slide‑forward mechanism shortens the gap to the third row, making third‑row access a breeze for adults and kids alike. The upholstery combines suede inserts with courtina‑grain leather‑wrapped steering wheel, delivering a tactile feel that rivals premium rivals.

Technology is front and centre. A 10.1‑inch touchscreen runs the latest infotainment software, supporting Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Directly behind the driver, a 10.25‑inch digital instrument cluster provides crisp gauges and navigation cues. The audio experience is handled by a premium Alpine sound system, tuned for a balanced soundstage across the cabin.

Comfort features include 12‑ventilated seats with memory function, a dual‑tone panoramic sunroof that floods the interior with natural light, and ambient lighting that can be set to a dark espresso accent. The floor mats carry an embossed Track edition logo, tying the exterior branding to the interior finish.

  • Suede‑wrapped second‑row seats with forward‑slide capability
  • Piano‑black bezels and dark espresso accents for a premium feel
  • Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, 10.1‑inch infotainment
  • 10.25‑inch digital cluster, Alpine audio

Pricing, trims and market positioning

Jeep has kept the pricing structure simple: two trims that mirror the drivetrain choice. The 2WD Track is priced at ₹3.59 million, while the 4WD Track commands ₹3.88 million. Both trims share the same equipment list, meaning the price gap reflects only the added drivetrain hardware.

Trim Price (₹) Key Features
Track 2WD 3,590,000 2.0 L diesel, 9‑speed auto, 18‑inch wheels, panoramic sunroof, Alpine audio
Track 4WD 3,880,000 All 2WD features + 4WD system, low‑range gearbox, off‑road mode selector

In Nepal’s SUV segment, the Jeep Meridian Track slots between the Mahindra XUV700 (starting around ₹3.2 million) and the Toyota Fortuner (starting near ₹4.5 million). Its blend of premium interior appointments and a respectable diesel powertrain gives it a unique value proposition: a true premium‑mid SUV that doesn’t feel like a compromise.


When will you get behind the wheel?

The official launch ceremony took place on 5 Falgun 2082 (mid‑February 2026). Jeep has opened bookings at authorized dealers in Kathmandu and Pokhara. Pre‑orders require a 10 percent deposit, with full payment due within 45 days of order confirmation. Deliveries are slated to begin in June 2026, contingent on the final clearance from the Department of Transport Management.

Potential buyers should watch for promotional financing schemes that local banks may roll out in tandem with the launch. Jeep’s partnership with select lenders often includes 0 percent interest for the first year on the 4WD variant – a detail that could sway budget‑conscious buyers.

That matters because timing and financing can make the difference between securing a limited‑edition badge now or missing out until the next production cycle.
