Want a Compass? Here’s how you get one step closer!

The Jeep Compass looks all set to sell like hot cakes. In case you’re fearing a long waiting period, you can reserve one. The SUV can be booked online or at an official showroom for a token amount of Rs 50,000. The manufacturer has also confirmed that it will be made available in three variants - Sport, Longitude and Limited.

The Compass is made in India, at Fiat’s Ranjangaon facility. It will be made available with two engine options - a 1.4-litre turbo-charged petrol, and a 2.0-litre diesel. The petrol motor develops 164PS and 250Nm, whereas the diesel is good for 173PS and 350Nm. Transmission options include a 6-speed manual and 7-speed dual-clutch automatic for the petrol, and a 6-speed manual and 9-speed automatic for the diesel. Notably, the diesel automatic won’t be available at the outset and is likely to be launched by the year-end.

Both engines can be had with the option of a 4x2 or a 4x4 drivetrain. The four-wheel-drive Compass gets Jeep’s ‘Selec-Terrain’ wizardry that lets one choose between off-road modes such as Snow, Sand, and Mud other than the Auto mode. It also gets a barrage of safety tech that includes six airbags, anti-lock brakes, electronic stability control, hill start assist and panic brake assist.
