Jeep at the 2016 Indian Auto Expo

In the spotlight on the Jeep stand at recently held 2016 Indian Auto Expo at Greater Noida, the company showcased the Wrangler Unlimited, the Grand Cherokee and the Grand Cherokee SRT. The star of the stand was the Mopar-tuned Wrangler Unlimited in the Jeep family.

All Jeep models will be initially brought in via the CBU route into India while Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) promises local production later on so as to keep costs in check.

 
Jeep Wrangler Unlimited

The brand’s off-road specialist, the Wrangler Unlimited made its first public appearance at the biennial event. The major highlight of the Wrangler is the removable roof and door, making it one of a kind. It will make its way into India via the CBU route in mid-2016.

Sadly, the Wrangler 2-door version will not be available in India. Only the 4-door Wrangler Unlimited will be launched here. It will be available with a choice of – a 3.6-litre V6 24-Valve VVT petrol engine and a 2.8-litre turbocharged diesel engine. The legendary off-road capabilities of the Wrangler range are delivered by the two-speed ‘shift-on-the fly’ Command-Trac NV241 part-time all-wheel drive system.

The Grand Cherokee is a most awarded vehicle in the Jeep line-up, is regaled for its style and performance. For India, it will be offered in two variants – Limited and Summit, when launched in the second half of the year.

Both the Grand Cherokee Limited and Summit will be powered by a 3.0-litre V6 EcoDiesel engine, which is capable of churning out 240 bhp and 570 Nm of peak torque.  The engine come mated to 8-Speed Paddle-Shift Automatic Transmission. The petrol engine option has not been revealed yet.

Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT

The Grand Cherokee SRT is a high-performance version, the fastest and most powerful Jeep ever, which delivers sublime and superior performance. It accelerates from 0 to 100 kmph in just 5 seconds, has a top speed of 257 kmph and achieves braking distance from 100 to 0 kmph in only 35 metres.

Merit for this goes to the 6.4-litre HEMI SRT naturally aspirated V8 petrol engine that pushes out 461 bhp and 624 Nm of torque, sending power to all-four-wheels via an 8-speed automatic transmission and distributed between them through Quadra-trac active on demand all-wheel drive system.
