Jeep Compass Facelift 2021 Petrol spotted in India
Jeep, a brand name synonymous with off roads has been quite successful in India. Although it produces automotive-enthusiast friendly cars, its Jeep Compass is for the everyday driver. Jeep launched the current generation Jeep Compass on 2017 and gave it a mild update very recently. No overall visual or interior changes were made. Only a new engine, alloy wheels and new paint schemes were offered with the new car. While the update greatly disappointed Jeep fans, a new Jeep Compass 2021 has been spotted testing and Jeep has worked hard this time.
Exterior Changes
Unlike the last mild update, the 2021 Jeep Compass is a face-lifted version of the Compass. Expect both interior and exterior changes to be present in the new iteration. The test car was heavily camouflaged so no apparent details were visible. If seen carefully you can definitely observe the alloy wheels and minor style tweaks.
Is it Confirm?
Jeep has not confirmed anything officially about the release or launch of 2021 Jeep Compass. However, Jeep was caught saying that it was planning to launch two to three new vehicles in the Indian market. A new 2021 Jeep Compass, a sub-compact SUV and a seven-seater premium SUV are highly likely to be launched. As of now, the second-generation Jeep Compass MP/552 is the only major product sold by FCA in India.
Majority Changes
A redesigned mesh pattern for the seven-slat front grille, new wheel options and dual-tip exhaust is believed to be available. Jeep has included an 8.4-inch touchscreen infotainment system with UConnect smartphone app. All previous features will be included in the new car. Upholstery quality is also rumoured to be improved.
