Jeep has unveiled the facelifted Compass SUV for India, which made its debut in international markets only a few months ago. The Jeep Compass Facelift gets a refreshed exterior, a redesigned dashboard, and enhanced comfort and convenience features.

The facelifted Compass gets revised headlights with integrated LED DRLs, an updated seven-slat grille with honeycomb-like inserts, a new front bumper with a tweaked faux skid plate, a larger air dam with new fog light housings, and 18-inch alloy wheels. The SUV also gets new alloy wheels. Besides these changes, there will be no other major differences to the side and rear of the SUV.

The interior of the Compass gets the most significant upgrade. The new Compass gets a restyled dashboard with a new floating 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a new three-spoke steering wheel, a large digital instrument cluster, and new AC vents and HVAC controls.

The new touchscreen will come with FCA’s UConnect 5 infotainment system and features Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto support. In terms of comfort and convenience, the SUV gets a panoramic sunroof, wireless charging, dual-zone automatic climate control, a 360-degree parking camera, leather upholstery, powered tailgate, and electrically-adjustable driver’s seat.

The new Jeep Compass continues to be powered by the same engine and transmission options from the outgoing model – a 2.0-litre diesel engine that delivers 173hp and 350Nm of torque and a 1.4-litre turbo-petrol engine producing 163hp and 250Nm of torque. Both engines come with a six-speed manual as standard, however, the Compass petrol and diesel will also get the option of a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic and a nine-speed automatic torque converter.  The diesel variant will also be available with a four-wheel-drive system.

The new Jeep Compass will come equipped with seven airbags, ABS with EBD, brake assist (BA), terrain modes, hill assist (HA), and hill descent control (HDC) among others.
