The Jeep Compass, which received BS6-compliant petrol and diesel engines in February 2020, comes with a few new features. What’s more? Some of them are now offered as standard across variants. So let’s take a look at these new features as well as the prices and specifications of the Compass BS6.

The BS6-compliant Compass offers engine stop-start as standard across all variants. This feature simply shuts off the engine while idling to preserve fuel and lower emissions, and then starts it up again when the accelerator is pressed. Jeep is also offering cruise control as standard on all automatic variants of the Compass, starting from Longitude. The top-spec Compass Limited Plus variant also gets a new design for its 18-inch alloy wheels.

Jeep offers the Compass with a choice of two BS6 engines - a 1.4-litre turbo-petrol unit making 163PS and 250Nm and a 2.0-litre diesel engine that produces 173PS and 350Nm. Both engines are available with a 6-speed manual and an automatic transmission option too. The petrol engine gets the choice of a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic while the diesel variants equipped with the 4x4 drivetrain get the choice of a 9-speed AT.

The BS6 Compass is priced between Rs 16.49 lakh and Rs 24.99 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi) not including the Trailhawk, which Jeep counts as a separate product. The variant-wise prices are listed below:
