car&bike Expert Take
“The Jeep Compass remains appealing to those who value driving dynamics, good build quality and true SUV capability over outright feature count. The addition of the 4x2 diesel automatic has widened its appeal, but it continues to be a premium proposition in its segment.”
When the Jeep Compass was launched in India in 2017, it immediately made a name for itself as a serious mid-size SUV with genuine off-road credentials. It was different from the typical front-wheel-drive crossovers as it offered a proper four-wheel-drive system and a powerful diesel engine. Over the years, however, increased pricing and limited drivetrain combinations have diminished accessibility quite a lot.
The 2024 update addresses one of the biggest concerns. The Compass now has a 4x2 diesel automatic starting from the Longitude variant, so the nine-speed automatic is more accessible than it used to be. Prices have also been cut across the range, which now starts at Rs. 20.49 lakh (ex-showroom).
This review is based on evaluation and road testing done by Seshan Vijayraghavan for car&bike review, including the new BlackShark edition. Mechanically speaking, the Compass is unchanged. It carries on with the same 2.0-litre turbo diesel engine delivering 168 bhp and 350 Nm with either a six-speed manual or a nine-speed automatic. The petrol engine has been discontinued, so diesel is the only powertrain option now.
Seshan sums up the update clearly:
“The big change is accessibility. You can now have the diesel automatic without having to stretch to the top-spec 4x4. That makes a difference.”
Positioned against rivals like Tata Harrier and Mahindra XUV700 (newer XUV 7XO), the Compass is more inclined towards driving feel than just sheer equipment count or brand identity. It is still one of the few SUVs in the segment to have a proper four-wheel-drive system.
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.

- Compass is ideal for those who prioritize performance4.0Black Shark (O) Diesel MT(Diesel)After driving the Jeep Compass for a few months, I’ve found it to be a solid choice for those who value performance, style, and rugged capability. The 2.0-liter diesel engine delivers impressive power, making city drives and highway cruises effortless. Its 4x4 system is a standout feature, handling rough terrains with ease and adding confidence for off-road enthusiasts. Inside, the Compass offers a premium experience with high-quality materials and well-thought-out ergonomics. The touchscreen infotainment system is responsive, with seamless smartphone connectivity and an excellent sound system. The front seats provide great support and comfort for long drives, while features like dual-zone climate control and ample boot space add practicality. On the outside, the Compass commands attention with its rugged design and robust build quality. It’s a vehicle that combines style with substance, exuding confidence on the road. However, it’s not without flaws. The rear seats lack sufficient legroom for taller passengers, which might be a downside for families. Additionally, its pricing is on the higher side, especially when compared to alternatives like the Tata Harrier or Hyundai Tucson, which offer similar features at a lower cost. Fuel efficiency is also average, which may not suit those prioritizing mileage. Overall, the Compass is ideal for those who prioritize performance, off-road capability, and a premium driving experience. For me, it’s been worth the investment, offering a balanced mix of comfort, style, and ruggedness.By Nirmit SinghPosted on: Nov 21, 2024 11:08 AM00
