Specifications

Debuted on 27 August 2021 in Brazil, the Commander is built on the Small Wide global platform shared with the Compass. As a result, it is unrelated to the similarly named Grand Commander sold in China. During its introduction, it is claimed to be the only D-segment SUV produced in Brazil. The vehicle is longer by 365 mm (14.4 in) in length, and longer by 158 mm (6.2 in) in wheelbase compared to the Compass. The trunk volume of the Commander is 661 liters with the 5 seats up, 233 liters with the 7 seats in use, or 1,760 liters when the second and third row seats are fully folded down. In Brazil, it is available with a 1.3-litre turboflex petrol engine marketed as "T270" which produces 185 PS (182 hp; 136 kW) and 27.5 m⋅kgf (270 N⋅m; 199 lb⋅ft), which is only optioned with front-wheel drive and 6-speed automatic transmission. A 2.0-litre turbodiesel engine marketed as "TD380" is available, and produces 170 PS (168 hp; 125 kW) and 38.7 m⋅kgf (380 N⋅m; 280 lb⋅ft) with all-wheel drive and a 9-speed automatic transmission as standard. In India, the vehicle was introduced in April 2022 and launched on 19 May 2022 as the Meridian. Production started in early May 2022. Only one engine option is available, which is the 2.0-litre turbodiesel engine. The Commander went on sale in Japan in October 2022. It is imported from India.
