Pros Cons of Lexus NX

Pros

  • Compact proportions but good road presence
  • Ride and handling is good
  • Practical SUV with hybrid powertrain

Cons

  • After sales and service an issue
  • Cabin is outdated
  • No diesel powertrain on offer given the segment

Verdict

The New NX 350h has been awarded the highest rating of 5 stars by Euro NCAP, and with this new car, the Lexus safety system has also come to India. This means a whole lot of driver assist features are now available with the car. This includes Lane tracing Assist, Lane departure Assist and Rear cross traffic alert amongst others. However, the Automatic emergency brakeing feature seen in the United States is missing in India.

Pros Cons of Jeep Compass

Pros

  • Strong road presence with classic Jeep styling
  • Well-tuned chassis with controlled body movements
  • Available four-wheel-drive system
  • Solid cabin materials and switchgear
  • Stable highway behaviour

Cons

  • No petrol engine option
  • No ADAS features
  • Rear seat space trails larger rivals
  • The automatic gearbox can feel relaxed at low speeds
  • Premium pricing compared to competitors

Verdict

The Jeep Compass does not try to dominate the segment on paper specifications. It does not have the largest cabin, the most powerful engine or the longest feature list. What it does deliver instead is a cohesive driving experience as well as a solid chassis and brand identity. The latest model has the added benefit of accessibility with the 4x2 diesel automatic and revised prices. That change alone makes the Compass easier to think about than it was.
Seshan Vijayraghavan captures its character accurately:
“The Compass is like a proper SUV to drive. It may not lead on features, but the fundamentals are good.”
If your priority is the most space or the most advanced electronic systems, rivals may be appropriate for you. However, if you place a premium on being able to stay composed at speed, balanced handling and true off-road capability, then the Compass is still a credible choice in the mid-size SUV market.
