Jeep Compass

Exterior

The Jeep Compass new model gets minimal changes to the exterior. It now gets updated front and rear bumpers, along with a set of updated projector LED headlamps and a new design for the alloy wheels. There are no sheet metal changes, and the mid-size Jeep still appears to be the butch and rugged SUV it was when it first arrived in the Indian market.

Variants

The Jeep Compass variants are as follows: Sport, Longitude (O), Limited (O), 80th Anniversary Edition, and Model S. It still gets dual-zone climate control, a rear parking camera, rear AC vents, auto headlamps, panoramic sunroof, rain-sensing wipers, auto-dimming rear-view mirror and electrically-adjustable tan leather seats with memory function. However, with the 2021 update, the Compass now also sports connected car tech, a 10.1-inch infotainment screen with wireless Apple Carplay/ Android Auto, ventilated front seats, and a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster.

Interior

Despite being just a facelift update, the Jeep Compass gets a heavily redesigned interior. It is fitted with richer materials, gets better equipment, and a new layout for the dashboard. The driver sits facing a new 10.25-inch instrument cluster and a 10.1-inch floating infotainment unit. The three-spoke steering wheel, too, is all-new and gels well with the plush design of the dashboard. For the on-road price, Jeep Compass now gets an amazing interior setup with the 2021 facelift update.

Engine Specifications & Performance

The 2021 Jeep Compass remains mechanically unchanged from the pre-facelift model. This means, it still comes powered by a 1.4-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine, good for 160bhp and 250Nm of torque, and a 2.0-litre, four-cylinder diesel engine that produces 168bhp and 350Nm of torque. The petrol comes paired to either a 6-speed manual or a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox, while the diesel comes mated to a 6-speed manual or a nine-speed torque converter automatic transmission.
