Verdict
The all-new Compass comes with a larger 8.4-inch UConnect Infotainment screen, dual-pane panoramic sunroof, plush leather interiors, an 8-way powered seat for the driver. The new Compass is agile, engaging, spirited and rather fun. It’s also surprisingly nimble and capable off-road. If priced nearly as attractively in India as it is in here in America, well then lets just go ahead and congratulate FCA India right now!
Jeep Compass
The Jeep Compass has been a runaway hit in the Indian market ever since its launch. The 2021 version takes things further by several notches, offering a more premium SUV for connoisseurs.
The Jeep Compass comes with a new front fascia and 7-slat grille in tandem with sleeker projector LED headlamps. There is also more detailing for the SUV currently along with a split air dam. There is also a top slated portion which has brand new LED fog lamps along with a big honeycombed portion beneath, creating a clean design overall. The new Compass gets several design enhancements and looks the part more in terms of a global SUV. There are stylish 18-inch alloy wheels for the car as well. The rear bumper also gets some tweaks.
| Petrol | 1368 cc | 162 hp | 250 Nm |
| Diesel | 1956 cc | 170 hp | 350 Nm |
The Compass offers all the options you want, right from diesel and petrol engines to automatic and manual transmission systems. You can also choose between 4X2 and 4X4 options. The turbo petrol engine has good outputs and is paired to 6-speed manual or DCT units while the turbocharged diesel engine is paired to a 9-speed automatic transmission system. This is not the quickest that you will find but works well in congested city traffic. The 4X4 option is unavailable with the petrol model. The petrol MT configuration is only there for the base version as well. The diesel engine does get the 6-speed MT choice as well.
The diesel engine is refined and powerful, being ideal for the highway and city alike. It has excellent low-end responses along with great pull right around the 2000 RPM mark. You will love pushing this engine although the gearbox tuning could have improved more. The AT unit feels slightly hesitant at times and that is a minor drawback. The engine is sportier in the manual guise although that has a heavier clutch. The petrol is as smooth as you would expect and does reasonably well in varied conditions. The engine is overall responsive and offers a punchy driving experience. The SUV also feels slightly faster than before.
• City- 10.98 kmpl
• Highway- 15.45 kmpl
• Overall- 12.09 kmpl
The Jeep Compass drives excellently with a light and easy feel while in congested traffic and it also remains nimble and stable at higher speeds. It does feel slightly rough when the speeds are low although the Compass takes rough roads and potholes with ease. There is limited body roll and the bouncy feeling is almost non-existent. The Compass also offers great cornering with precise throttle and steering inputs. The AWD setup works brilliantly for adjusting and managing overall grip levels. The Compass stands out for its brilliant driving dynamics and overall handling. Ride quality is also superb and you instantly feel more confident while piloting the car on the highway and even on city roads. The suspension system has been tuned nicely although parking speeds may make the SUV feel slightly bulky.
The 4X4 mode is available with the 4-Low mode in the Compass. The SUV comes with 18-inch tyres that offer superior grip, along with AWD as well. Visibility is sometimes limited due to the chunky pillars although the 360-degree camera is a boon in this case. The Compass can take most hurdles quite easily if you can maneuver with suitable throttle and brake movements. Ground clearance is sufficient although some stretches may lead to underbelly scrapes. Hill descent control is also useful in this case. You will also get various modes like Snow, Auto and Sand/Mud. While not a hardcore off-roader, the Jeep Compass does manage to hold its own on rough trails.
The new update has led to Jeep sprucing up the overall interior look and feel. The dashboard has been revamped and looks premium with the new all-black shade. The design is neatly incorporated with a sense of richness inside. The air vents are sleek and are integrated nicely into the cabin as well. The touch points are softer and feel premium as well. There are big buttons for dual-zone climate control, the audio-system (Alpine system with 9 speakers) and the infotainment unit which has rotary controls. There is a toggle switch for AWD and wireless charging as well. There is also a 360-degree camera and ventilated seats. There is a 10.25 inch digital instrument console with several layouts and readouts. The four-spoke steering wheel is a nice touch along with comfortable front seats with improved support. The seats have vinyl upholstery and black leather trims. The boot lid is electrically operated now. Legroom and headroom are also sufficient although width is on the lower side, meaning that three people at the back could be a little tight.
The Jeep Compass gets wireless charging, a 360-degree camera, 10.25 inch digital instrument cluster with multiple layouts, AWD, dual-zone climate control and a 10.1 inch UConnect 5 infotainment unit with OTA updates and many connected car features. The system is based on Android and is easy to use. There is a power operated boot lid and an Alpine sound system. There are also ventilated and 8-way powered front seats with memory functions for the driver’s seat and a sunroof.
The Jeep Compass comes with six airbags, ISOFIX child seat anchorages, ABS with EBD, traction control, electronic roll mitigation, electronic parking brake, hill start assist, and ESC among other safety features.
The Longitude O and S variants of the Compass are higher value propositions. The former is the ideal budget variant which has all the basic features that you desire including 17-inch alloy wheels, Apple CarPlay/Android auto, ESC, rear AC, reverse camera, hill-start assist, 7-inch instrument console, 10.1 inch infotainment touch screen, dual-zone climate control, auto-folding mirrors, and proximity sensors along with more connectivity attributes. If you can stretch it, choose the S variant which gets the panoramic sunroof, leather upholstery, 18-inch alloy wheels, automatic wipers and headlamps, 8-way power adjustable driver’s seat with memory functions, electric tailgate, auto-dimming interior mirror, side and curtain airbags, dual-tone color scheme, front seat ventilation, LED projector headlights, TPMS, wireless charging, a 9-speaker audio unit, 10.2 inch digital instrument cluster and more. You get more features for the extra amount that you pay.
The Jeep Compass takes on a wide bunch of rivals including the Mahindra Hyundai Tucson, Volkswagen Tiguan, Citroen C5 Aircross and others. The Tucson is the longest of the lot while the C5 Aircross is the widest and tallest. The Tucson also has the longest wheelbase. The Jeep Compass, however, has lower starting prices for its diesel and petrol versions and its engine power is somewhere in the middle. Add brand value and the overall off-road abilities to the mix and you still have the Compass as a great option in the segment.
The new Jeep Compass gets bunch of technology and safety features, a stylish design, off-roading abilities, and of course, powerful engines. It offers great drivability as well. It is costlier now although the overall brand value, experience, and road presence should make it worth it.

JEEP COMPASS- A Premium Car with WORST Customer Service We booked Jeep Compass Limited Plus AT Petrol on 5th of Feb 2019, we made full payment in March 2019 and took delivery on auspicious occasion of Gudhi Padwa on 6th April 2019. While booking dealer (Mr Abhijit, Sky Moto Automobiles, Wakad, Pune) has agreed to give 3M paint protection as complimentary upon our request. dealer to give 3M paint protection as complimentary, & dealer (Abhijeet) agreed our request. However Dealer has given us delivery of Jeep without 3M coating. I reminded dealer (Sachin) about 3M Paint protection a week before & 2 days before delivery of the vehicle, he said it will be definitely done before delivery. On the day of delivery, I asked him if the 3M coating done? He said I guess yes its done, But wasn’t looking like 3M done. So, I asked for the receipt for that then he said no it’s not done, I will collect your Jeep in next 2 days & will get it done. I agreed to that. This conversation was done on 6th April 2019, today its 11th May 2019 & still this thing is pending, Whenever I call them they (Abhijeet) have only one answer, “Sir We will pick your Jeep in this week”. Now a days they are saying the person who gives approval is on leave so will do it as soon as he is back. We had struggle to even get correct insurance quote from dealer. We had to visit show-room 3-4 times for RTO passing and insurance. They sent us wrong quotes (Sent quotes for different models) for almost 5 to 6 times. 2nd thing Some accessories were not provided on the day of delivery on asking the reason, we received a reply that there is a shortage of accessories, If I am booking the Jeep the in Feb can’t Jeep make it available in 2 Months???? Is this how PREMIUM BRAND works!!!!!!! I received the accessories almost after 15-20 days of delivery. Jeep India should really work on this issue. 3rd point is PLEASE hire a sales person who has some authority. Many of the times sales person in your showroom said Its (Insurance, Accessories, 3M coating) not in my hands. I will NOT recommend my family & friends to buy a Jeep at-least from your Wakad, Pune showroom.

I bought limited(O) diesel from Mohali dealership on 10th January 2018 and I must say my experience till now is great in all aspects.When I confirmed my purchase, I got delivery next day as one day took for banking formalities. That was amazing experience. The dealership here in Mohali is very professional and customer oriented, they even changed the car before delivery as I found one paint issue in the previous car and they provided a new car. They gave me plenty of time to check and verify the car again till I got satisfied. Till now I have driven around 4800 kms and my first service is due at 5000. My experience is awesome either in city or highways. As Chandigarh/Mohali doesn't have traffic like Delhi or Mumbai, I am getting mileage of around 17.5 km/l and on highways it gave me maximum of 22.5 km/l while driving at maximum speed of 100 km/hour and maximum distance covered that day was around 450Kms. I love the interiors, although maintenance is high as seat covers and doors are light colored as per my model but it looks premium. The music system is great as well electronic break, it is a great feature. Also You can manage other stuff within infotainment system like controlling lights, doors, phone etc. I am not big fan of automated system like cruise control, wipers and other stuff but I think sunroof could be a good option if they add in the future as well automatic in diesel. I don't mind manual transmission but automatic is helpful when there are long traffic jams. Car is a head turner for sure, I have seen how people react when you are on road, it gives a personality and car looks very rugged and manly. Whenever I have stopped on public places, people ask about it and that is a great feeling. I have heard bad reviews about dealership and services but nothing like this happened to me. Even they gave me training to use infotainment system as well the best way to maintain the car. They are available on one phone call. I am happy with my choice. If anyone wants to ask anything, feel free to write me.

I was in a dilemma whether to buy Harrier or MG hector because I found some negative reviews on Compass. After months of analysis, I finalized Compass. The issues and problems were reported in the first, 2017 version of compass. But the latest 2020 BS6 edition comes well refined, fixing all issues and improving a lot based on customer feedback. It even have cruise control, and slightly more powerful refined engine. The transmission lag is well contained and is barely noticeable. I own a Limited Plus Petrol variant, and I love the power and confidence this car gives on the road. Trust me, you'll never get that feeling on any of it's rivals. I've driven BMW X1 and Audi Q3, and compass gives you the same solid feel as in those premium luxury cars. Any day, I'd choose compass over it's rivals. Proud to be in the JEEP community (Well yeah, it's an awesome community)

I have test driven the Harrier, Safari, Hector also.. But the feel when you drive compass you will not get in other vehicles. Everyone complain cost of service is more, yes its costly because Jeep compass use premium brand PETRONAS products lubricants for vehicle. Also everyone should know JEEP Compass and Nexon manufactured in the same Fait manufacturing unit in Ranjangaon. There is no compromise in quality and safety compare to other brands.Don't go for the vehicle you getting sunroof and other fancy features. Alway test drive and check the build quality to see the performance and safety. Mileage I am getting good compare to KIA and Hyundai SUV's .
