Jeep Compass
No upgrade on the Jeep Compass is covered by the equipment it adds. The closest is Limited (O) → Model S (O2) on the Diesel automatic: ₹1,86,000 buys ₹1,54,375 of equipment — 82% of the price rise.
Jeep's five-seat mid-size SUV, built in India at Ranjangaon: one 2.0 Multijet II turbo diesel with a six-speed manual or a nine-speed automatic, and four-wheel drive on the top automatic. On sale in India since July 2017; the current facelift arrived in January 2021.

Where the money buys the most equipment, and where it buys the least
No variant on the Jeep Compass is covered outright by the equipment it adds — the best of them reaches 82%. Here is that variant and the weakest one, both computed from the same feature valuations.
Limited (O) → Model S (O2)
Diesel automatic
₹1,86,000 buys ₹1,54,375 of equipment — 82% of the price rise.
Adds Front Ventilated Seats, Premium Branded Sound System, Surround View Camera and 3 more.

Diesel manual
₹5,34,000 buys ₹2,11,250 of equipment — 39% of the price rise.
Adds Dual-Pane Panoramic Sunroof, 6 Airbags Standard, Automatic Climate Control and 9 more.
See the full comparisonThis is not a recommendation of a trim — it is the variant whose price rise our tracked equipment best explains, and the one it explains worst. A feature you will never use is worth nothing to you, whatever we value it at. Every upgrade, in order.

Jeep Compass: questions buyers ask
Which Jeep Compass variant is the best value?
Limited (O) 2.0 Diesel AT to Model S (O2) 2.0 Diesel AT costs ₹1,86,000, and the equipment it adds is worth ₹1,54,375 — 82% of the price rise. That is the variant upgrade where equipment explains the most of what you pay. No variant on this car is covered outright by the equipment it adds, so this is the closest it gets. The figure is computed from the feature difference, not chosen.
Which Jeep Compass variant gives back the least?
Sport 2.0 Diesel MT to Longitude (O2) 2.0 Diesel MT costs ₹5,34,000, and the equipment it adds is worth ₹2,11,250 — 39% of the price rise. The rest of that money goes on things we do not itemise — materials, fit and finish, and the manufacturer's own margin.
How many variants does the Jeep Compass have?
9, across 3 powertrains, from ₹18,29,000 to ₹30,70,000 ex-showroom. Every grade the maker prices: Sport, Longitude (O2), Limited (O) and Model S (O2), with the manual and automatic, and the Model S 4x4 automatic. Left out: the limited-run Trail and Track editions.
What is the EMI on the Jeep Compass?
About ₹35,954 a month for the cheapest variant, Sport 2.0 Diesel MT: ₹21,77,757 on the road in Delhi, 20% down, and a loan of ₹17,42,206 at 8.75% a year for 5 years. A different rate, tenure or down payment changes it — the EMI calculator works it out for your own figures.
What are the Jeep Compass's dimensions, boot space and ground clearance?
It is 4,405 mm long, 1,818 mm wide and 1,640 mm tall, on a 2,636 mm wheelbase. Boot space is 438 litres. We hold no ground clearance figure from Jeep's own documents. The fuel tank holds 60 litres. These are Jeep's own figures.
When was the Jeep Compass launched?
The Jeep Compass on sale now, the second generation, was launched in India in Jul 2017. It was last facelifted in Jan 2021: Facelift with a redesigned cabin, a larger touchscreen and updated styling.
Is a new Jeep Compass or a facelift coming?
Jeep has announced nothing, and we found no credible reports of one as of 1 Nov 2026.
What colours does the Jeep Compass come in?
Jeep lists 6 colours: Pearl White, Brilliant Black, Techno Metallic Green, Exotica Red, Grigio Magnesio Grey, Galaxy Blue. Not every colour is offered on every variant.
What is the Jeep Compass's safety rating?
The current Jeep Compass has not been crash-tested by Bharat NCAP or Global NCAP yet.
What is the on-road price of the Jeep Compass?
The cheapest variant, Sport 2.0 Diesel MT, comes to about ₹21,77,757 on road in Delhi — ₹18,29,000 ex-showroom plus road tax, insurance, registration and TCS where it applies. Road tax is set by the state, so the total moves by a lakh or more between them.
How we checked these figures
Data notes — where these figures come from
PRICES: the maker's configurator gives one ex-showroom price per variant for the whole country (the same figure whatever pincode is entered). Its model menu says 'Starting at 17.99 Lakh' while the configurator and its pricing service price the Sport manual at Rs 18,29,000; the configurator's variant figure is held. VARIANT NAMES: the maker's price list names Longitude (O2) and Model S (O2); its October 2026 brochure heads the same columns Longitude (O) and Model S (O). The brochure also carries a plain Longitude column that the configurator does not sell, so it is not modelled. LEFT OUT: the Trail Edition (manual and automatic) and the Track Edition (manual, automatic and 4x4 automatic). The maker calls both limited-time special editions with all the features of the trims they are built on (Longitude (O) and Model S) plus decals, badges, wheels and trim colours. The Trail's 18-inch wheels are the only registry difference from the Longitude (O2). ENGINE: one engine across the range, the 2.0 Multijet II turbo diesel, 1956 cc, 350 Nm. The maker prints 170 hp here and 125 kW for the same engine elsewhere; 125 kW is 168 bhp. No certified efficiency figure is printed, so none is stored. WHEELS (SPORT AT): the brochure ticks both '215/65 R16 styled steel wheels' and 'R17 alloy wheels' for the Sport AT; the model page lists 17-inch alloys for the automatic Sport, so the alloys are credited. HEADLAMPS: Sport to Limited (O) have LED reflector headlamps and daytime running lamps of unstated type, so neither headlamp entry is credited. Model S has LED projector headlamps, credited as such. CAMERAS: every grade has a reversing camera with rear sensors, but moving guidelines are stated only for the 360-degree system, so the guided reversing camera is credited on the Model S alone. PARKING BRAKE: every grade has an electronic parking brake; auto hold is stated for automatics only, so only automatics earn the entry. Cruise control is automatic-only too. 4X4: the Model S 4x4 automatic has Selec-Terrain terrain modes and hill descent control. Terrain modes without separate drive modes sit on the lower drive-modes level. INSTRUMENT CLUSTER: the Model S cluster is 25.9 cm (10.2-inch) in the brochure and '10.25-inch' in a maker press release; it is credited at the 7-inch level, below the 10.25-inch entry, until the maker's figures agree. DRIVER'S SEAT: the brochure marks manual height adjustment absent on the powered 8-way seats; an 8-way powered seat adjusts height, so it is kept. NOT CREDITED: six airbags on the Sport (the maker lists them as an option there; two are standard). Tyre pressure monitoring (the maker describes a low-pressure warning, not a per-tyre readout). Rear power windows (the matrix has a front one-touch row only). Ambient lighting and a dashcam (named on the model page, absent from the brochure matrix). No paddle shifters, front parking sensors or ADAS with adaptive cruise are listed. The power tailgate, two-tone roof and solar-control glass have no registry entry.
