The new Compass is set to slot in under the Jeep Recon and the Wagoneer S in the company’s global line-up and is set to be joined by an all-new Renegade in the coming years.

The current-gen Compass debuted globally in 2016 and was launched in India the following year. The SUV has been locally manufactured at FCA India’s Ranjangaon facility since its launch with the SUV receiving a facelift in 2021. It however remains to be seen if the new-gen Compass will eventually make its way to Indian shores with some reports suggesting that the model could be unfeasible for the market given the model’s low sales.
