Velvet Red Jeep Meridian with a black roof, a seven seat SUV

The Jeep Meridian specifications list a 1956 cc Multijet II diesel. It makes 170 hp at 3750 rpm and 350 Nm from 1750 to 2500 rpm.

The 4x4 automatic uses Jeep Active Drive with Selec-Terrain modes for Auto, Mud/Sand and Snow, plus 4WD Low, 4WD Lock and hill descent control.

The Meridian is 4769 mm long, 1859 mm wide and 1698 mm tall on a 2782 mm wheelbase. Jeep quotes a 481 litre boot for the seven seater and 670 litres for the five seat Longitude, and the tank holds 60 litres.

All versions run on 235/55 R18 tyres with disc brakes at all four wheels and Frequency Selective Damping. Kerb weight runs from 1740 kg to 1915 kg, and Jeep does not state a ground clearance.

ARAI rates the manual at 16.25 km/l, the automatic at 15.69 km/l and the 4x4 at 14.92 km/l. The Meridian mileage page puts those figures in context.

Jeep Meridian power and torque explained

The Meridian keeps your engine choice simple. There is one, a 2.0 litre diesel making 170 hp and 350 Nm, and no petrol version to weigh up.

What you do choose is how it drives. Front wheel drive comes with a six speed manual or a nine speed automatic, and the 4x4 is automatic only. This diesel is tuned to pull from low down rather than to chase high revs, which suits a heavy seven seater. You can see the whole range and features in the full Meridian rundown.

How to read this chart. Torque is the push you feel when you accelerate, and it peaks low on the rev range. Power is how hard the engine keeps pulling as it revs higher, and it peaks further up. The two dots mark those peaks. The shaded strip between them is the flexibility band: a wider band pulls easily across more revs and feels relaxed in traffic, while a narrower band asks you to rev the engine more to get its best.

Peak figures come from the 2.0L Diesel spec sheet. The line between the two peaks is not a measured dyno curve.

The 2.0 litre diesel serves up its full 350 Nm at just 1750 rpm, so the strongest shove is there almost as soon as you pull away. That low pull is what moves seven people and their bags without any drama, in town or on a climb. Peak power of 170 hp lands low at 3750 rpm, so you never have to rev it hard to make good progress. From that torque peak up to peak power sits a 2000 rpm spread, so one gear stretches a long way and you shift less in traffic. Pick it with the nine speed automatic for easy family miles, or the 4x4 automatic if your roads get rough. Before you lock a variant, check the on road price near you.
