Jeep Compass Diesel Automatic Is A Lot More Affordable Than Before!

The new diesel-auto variants get the same BS6 diesel engine as the Compass Trailhawk

• Diesel-auto combo introduced in Longitude and Limited Plus variants.

• Both variants use a 9-speed automatic gearbox and get a 4x4 drivetrain.

• They are powered by the Compass Trailhawk’s 2.0-litre BS6 diesel engine.

• Longitude variant also gets feature additions such as push-button start and cruise control.

• Longitude and top-spec Limited Plus variant finally get cruise control as standard.

American carmaker Jeep has introduced two new variants of the Compass diesel automatic. Previously, the diesel-auto combo could only be had in the top-spec Trailhawk edition of the SUV. Now though, Jeep is offering this sought-after combo in the base Longitude and top-spec Limited Plus variants as well. The former is priced at Rs 21.96 lakh while the latter costs Rs 24.99 lakh (both, ex-showroom India).

All prices are ex-showroom New Delhi.

The powertrain on both variants remains the same 2.0-litre diesel engine tuned to meet BS6 emission norms, paired to a 9-speed automatic transmission. Jeep is even offering its 4x4 drivetrain on the two variants, and even if you want, you cannot have the diesel-auto Compass without it.
