Jeep has relaunched the limited-edition variant of the Compass SUV in India – the Night Eagle. At Rs 25.39 lakh (ex-showroom), the SUV makes a return in the country after a hiatus of nearly a year. It is available in three exterior colour options – Black, White, and Red – all paired with a contrasting black roof. In its new avatar, the Compass Night Eagle gets gloss-black detailing on the front grille, grille rings, daylight openings, and door handles. Also, the roof rails and 18-inch alloy wheels are finished in gloss black. As the name suggests, the special edition comes only in a black colour scheme.
The same theme continues inside the cabin as well. The new Compass Night Eagle features an all-black interior with black leather seats. In terms of features, the updated SUV is equipped with front and rear dash cameras, a rear entertainment unit, premium carpet mats, underbody lighting, ambient lighting, and an air purifier, all of which are offered as standard. Positioned between the Longitude and Limited variants in the line-up, the SUV gets a 10.1-inch infotainment system, a 7.0-inch semi-digital instrument cluster, wireless Android Auto/ Apple CarPlay, dual-zone automatic climate control, a panoramic sunroof, keyless entry, and wireless phone charging.
