by Exclusive Offer for Japan
The Jeep Commander SUV, introduced in a number of global markets but notably absent from American dealerships, is not the brand’s flagship star. However, Jeep has chosen it as the base for a new limited edition created exclusively for Japan. The model, named the Commander Trail Edition, will be produced in a run of only 150 units and will feature a number of unique design and trim updates.
Exterior Look and Design
This special version is based on the Commander Limited trim and is painted in Brilliant Black Crystal. The most noticeable change is the bright red front spoiler, which adds some contrast to the dark paint finish. Furthermore, Jeep replaced the usual chrome trim elements with parts in gray and black colors, giving the SUV a more restrained and slightly more aggressive appearance.
Jeep also installed a new Trail badge with a camouflage design. A set of 18-inch alloy wheels with a glossy black finish comes standard for this model.
Interior Updates
The Commander Trail Edition’s interior also received a number of updates. For example, there is new red trim that runs across the entire dashboard and on the steering wheel. The manufacturer also added red contrast stitching and a camouflage print.
Price and Technical Features
As mentioned, only 150 units will be produced, and the price starts at 5,990,000 yen, or approximately $44,400.
The Jeep Commander may not be sold in the USA, but as a seven-seat SUV designed to occupy the niche between the Compass and the Grand Cherokee, it has quite a few advantages. In the Japanese market, it is equipped exclusively with a 2.0-liter diesel engine; however, in other markets, such as Mexico, it is fitted with a 1.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine producing 173 hp with a torque of 199 lb-ft (270 Nm).
Limited series like the Commander Trail Edition often become objects of interest for collectors, which can affect their future market value. The emphasis on unique trim and exclusivity highlights Jeep’s strategy for attracting buyers in specific markets where not only technical specifications matter but also the car’s individuality. This approach allows the brand to maintain interest in a model that is not mass-produced in its global lineup.
