As all the carmakers across the globe are slowly shifting to battery electric vehicles, so is Jeep. Recently the Stallantis-owned carmaker Jeep unveiled its vehicle, which may be called the Jeepster. Although the name Jeepseter was associated with the special edition of Jeep Renegade, we expect the new vehicle to be named after this. The new compact SUV from Jeep looks promising. But will this be launched in India? What will power the Jeepster? Well, let’s answer all the questions here.
Here is everything you need to know about the new Jeep Jeepster.

What will power the new Jeep Jeepster?
As a part of the move to electric mobility, it is speculated that the new Jeep Jeepster will feature a couple of powertrains. These include a mild hybrid that comes with a petrol engine and a combination of battery and a motor. The other is expected to be an all-electric powertrain.

However, we might also see an eAWD set up to be available as an option. The new Jeep could be closely similar to cars from related manufacturers, including the Peugeot e-2008 and Citroen e-C4, as it may feature on one of Stellantis’ new STLA platforms, most likely the smallest one.

Will It come to India?
Jeep may unveil this new SUV sometime this year and may launch it in 2023 in the global market. And hence, as of now, there are no plans for Jeep to launch the Jeepster in the Indian market.
Although there are no plans for this car to come to India, if it ever comes, it is said to rival the likes of Hyundai Venue, Tata Nexon, Kia Sonet, Maruti Suzuki Brezza, and others. Additionally, as it will be a mild hybrid, we can anticipate it to be a little pricy and many starts from Rs.10 Lakh (ex-showroom)
