Jeep Commander launches in UAE at Dhs 149,900 with 7 seats and proper 4x4

Jeep's new 7-seater SUV combines proper 4x4 capability with family practicality. The 272hp turbo engine, genuine low-range gearing, and comprehensive safety kit make it serious value against Toyota alternatives.

Jeep Commander launches in UAE at Dhs 149,900 with 7 seats and proper 4x4

The Jeep Commander has launched in UAE starting at Dhs 149,900 — and for a proper seven-seater with genuine 4x4 capability, that's ballistic value for money. According to Al-Futtaim Trading Enterprises' press release, the new D-segment SUV brings authentic Jeep off-road prowess to the family market, with deliveries starting immediately across their dealership network.

What you're getting for Dhs 149,900

The base Limited+ trim doesn't feel like a base model — you get 19-inch alloys, full LED lighting, and black leather with suede. That 10.25-inch digital cluster is crisp, and the 10.1-inch multimedia centre handles wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto without fuss. Wireless charging actually works and includes cooling — how cool is that?

Seven airbags come standard, plus the full ADAS suite with active park assist. There's even a 127V socket for proper camping gear. The Jeep Commander really is targeting families who want capability, not just grocery runs.

The engine and 4x4 system

Under the bonnet is a 2.0L turbo petrol making 272hp and 400Nm — proper punch for overtaking on Emirates Road. More importantly, this has actual 4x4 Low mode and 4x4 Lock. The Selec-Terrain system lets you dial in different modes for sand, rock, whatever you're tackling.

This isn't some soft-roader with marketing stickers. Hill Descent Control, live traction feedback, pitch and roll angles on screen — it's built for proper off-road work when the family camping trip heads beyond tarmac.

Seven-seat practicality

The second row slides 14cm forward or back — brilliant for either legroom or boot space. Both second and third rows recline, and you can fit three child seats across the middle row. Doors open to 80 degrees for easy access, plus there's 31 litres of additional storage compartments scattered throughout.

Dual-zone climate control with rear vents keeps everyone comfortable. In UAE heat, that's not optional — it's essential. The Commander gets this right.

Overland trim adds the premium touches

The top Overland spec includes everything from Limited+ but adds proper brown leather, panoramic sunroof, and that excellent Harman Kardon nine-speaker system. Memory seats, power passenger seat, hands-free tailgate — all the touches you'd expect at this level.

Al-Futtaim hasn't announced Overland pricing yet, but expect it to push well past Dhs 200,000. The Limited+ at Dhs 149,900 looks like the sensible buy until we see final numbers.

Jeep Commander price and availability in UAE

The Commander Limited+ starts at Dhs 149,900 from Al-Futtaim Trading Enterprises dealerships now. Every purchase includes 5-year/100,000km warranty, 3-year/60,000km service package, and 5 years roadside assistance.

Overland pricing hasn't been confirmed — we'll update when Al-Futtaim releases those numbers. For families wanting genuine 4x4 capability without Land Cruiser money, this Limited+ spec hits a sweet spot in the UAE market.
