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.

Pros Cons of Mahindra XUV500

Pros

  • Looks better than before. Facelift ups the premium quotient
  • Seats are well bolstered
  • More power available on the diesel

Cons

  • There's a hint of body roll
  • Low on power at lower rpms
  • Understeers when you take a corner

Verdict

Mahindra is offering some new colours on the XUV500 - Crimson Red and Mystic copper, both of which we did not get to see; but the Crimson Red looked promising on the presentation board. Mahindra will hope the refresh brings its customer base back into M&M showrooms and more importantly, back to driving the once popular XUV500.
