FCA debuted the Jeep brand in India with its Wrangler and Grand Cherokee premium SUVs in 2016 but the real breakthrough came when made-in-India Compass was launched in July 2017. The Compass really set the tone in the premium SUV segment but its popularity faded away in recent times. With it being the sole volume seller for the brand, a mid-life update has been introduced in India.
The 2021 Jeep Compass is priced between Rs. 16.99 lakh and Rs. 24.49 lakh (ex-showroom) (around Rs. 50,000 price increase across variants) and it features a host of changes inside and out in response to the growing competition. On the inside, the facelift has been given a thorough revision with redesigned headlamps having integrated LED Daytime Running Lights, revised front grille with seven vertical slats and honeycomb inserts.
It also gets a brand new bumper section with wider air inlet and restyled fog lamp housing enhancing the sporty vibe of the new model. While the overall sturdy pillars and roofline remain identical as the outgoing model, the American SUV manufacturer has given a set of new 18-inch alloy wheels while the rear gains only subtle changes retaining its robust character.
The side and rear profiles have largely remained the same but the interior is subjected to a big overhaul with the addition of new features and technologies. The 2021 Jeep Compass is equipped with a larger floating touchscreen infotainment system of 10.1 inches in size, newly designed air conditioning vents and HVAC controls, brown leather inserts on the dashboard and so on.
With a new range-topping Model S trim added to the lineup, the Compass facelift is currently available in four trims in India - Sports, Longitude, Limited (O) and Model S.
For 2021, the Jeep Compass comes with revised exterior styling but the real change lies on the inside where the dashboard has been completely redone with a lot of new features. Here's what you will find in each of the trims of the Compass facelift.
