annoying background music! Anyways, Fiat has got a winner here. All they need to do is price it right, and spruce up their service centers. The product, like other Fiats, are excellent!
only drawback in fiat is issues related to service... they don't have enough service stations in Punjab, otherwise quality is far better than other companies..
Heart core fan of jeep compass.....Dad of all Suvs the brilliant suv...... in planet... love you jeep... Go anywhere Do anything... OlllllllO...cant wait to own one...
Today I drove it.good VFM proposition. .7" screen is awesome. Best audio system. .. smooth to drive and enough power on tap. Wow really influenced to buy
Hi, Jeep is not offering features that are available in Australian spec model and other right hand driving countries such as blind spot monitoring system, big infotainment display with inbuilt navigation, sunroof, 9 speaker beats audio system, diesel automatic transmission (not the trail hawk) and many more. Is jeep planning to launch new updated compass with these features in any time soon?
can see a really promising package in form of the Compass...... I believe fiat should seriously expand it network to completely satisfy the potential customer for this car.... out of all the features missing I only wish it had a low ratio 4x4 system
If its priced around 15-20 exshowroom /1.8lakhs rto for 15l vehicle/12% +50k insurance/totalling 17-20lakhs onroad ! I would spot on buy it over the creta /innova /skoda octavia /corolla(d segment) /fortuner infact /vw tiguan which recently test drove /for its sheer brand excluisivity and brand image in india!
although the compass seems to be a good balance of luxury and a tough build, a few essential features such as the mentioned absence of a sunroof which is popular in the Indian market will definitely affect its sales. however this car has just been launched so we can look forward to a few more variants. a good price point makes it a tough competitor to defeat and since Indians nowadays look forward to tough SUVs , this one is surely not gonna disappoint. the foreign variants like the ones in the states have much more potential because they are not deficit of the features missing in the variant described in the video. we have definitely been looking forward to this car and would be happy to see a comparison between the compass and it's competitors.
Such a disappointment. Jeep Compass for Indian market is missing so many features and safety while in the international market it comes loaded with all the features and safety for the same price. Things that are missing so far: Auto headlamps Auto wipers Auto dimming mirror Automatic Diesel transmission Panoramic sunroof Park Assist 8.4" UConnect 7" color drivers information display Cruise Control Blind spot monitoring Lane Sense Forward Collision warning 7 Airbags Heated seats Heated steering It costs 22.5 Lacs with all the premium features in the US market. Why should I pay around 24 Lacs and get so little? Jeep just ruined my plans.
Hey buddy! No, it does not come power packed with all the options you listed above here in the US. It's all basically a marketing gimmick here. You want a sunroof then you have to go for x package. You want auto dimming lights or auto wipers then you gotta go for y package. The basic Jeep Compass package doesn't include half of the things listed above. Also, you forget that the safety regulations in India are way more lenient than in India so the companies take that to their advantage (unfortunately). The lane sensing and blind spot monitoring system coupled with other features, you will have to pay more for that here as well.
Jawed Huda These foreign car manufacturers treat us Indians like crap and withhold features while at the same time jacking up the price. Why should we pay more than other countries and get lesser features than them? FIAT may have hit home the final nail in the coffin.
it's costs about 20lakh in UK, on road. It should've been the same in India, if not cheaper since the production is right here, as it was predicted earlier. I don't get why it's so priced so high..
Arnav Sanghvi Drove a hexa and crysta back to back. hexa is miles ahead interms of comfort,interior look fit and finish amd ooh the ride quality!Was inclined to buy one however þhe things you stated like reliability ,aftersales support,resale value etc made me wait a few.months see how the vehicle performs in the market and wait for some long term ownership reviews :/ The tata image seriously got the best of the Hexa
sounak bar ,its bcoz the tata brand image...imagine the sales figures if it was a hyundai.I have driven that car,lots of features,lots of space,comfier than innova...bigger than innova.....but nobody wants to pay the premium amount for a tata....they could have launch the vehicle under a different brand name and logo....like toyota and lexus, hyundai and Genesis, Honda accura....
I think Jeep now has a good real opening with this but they need to iterate real quick to stand the waves of competition. Owning a real Jeep would be a real dream for many (Ahem Mahindra fans - step aside) and I think this can just do that. Just improve on the bells and whistles inside and they have a killer!
p vinay Compass is a 5 seater and Endeavor is 7 seater, the Compass I believe can only have a fight with Hyundai's Tucson BTW not the Santa-Fe because that is a small 7 seater
fire light Thanks for other suggestions because I was not able to think of other cars i.e. 🇯🇵CR-V, 🇩🇪Tiguan (because Honda is Japanese and VW is German)
Jeep . why did u bring the compass as ur first CKD product in india ? we all need to see jeep wrangler as the first ckd product .... think of a jeep wrangler for the price of an innova sats gonnna be interesting
Hi, I also like Compass very much, but tell Jeep to Add few but Important features like Sunroof, Sat Nav, LED DRL and auto rear view mirror, and I'm sure that Compass going to be very successful car.
No runroof is a big trick missed! They should have included atleast in top end model. Also anyone can confirm ground clearance? it doesn't look much looking at the exterior if it's low, that will be a big dampener.
i really like the fact that the electronic handbrake only disengages only if you put the seatbelts on
annoying background music!

Avik Chatterjee wee
Avik Chatterjee what music do you expect in the background? Chammak challo?

Jeep compass is a gem of an SUV. Only problem is u won't find service centers anywhere in india.
absolutely a brilliant car
If its priced around 15-20 exshowroom /1.8lakhs rto for 15l vehicle/12% +50k insurance/totalling 17-20lakhs onroad ! I would spot on buy it over the creta /innova /skoda octavia /corolla(d segment) /fortuner infact /vw tiguan which recently test drove /for its sheer brand excluisivity and brand image in india!
So your dream came true. Did you end up buying it... :)

The only good thing about this is the hand brake, which only disengages once you wear the seatbelt.
How much money did they save by not giving auto dimming mirrors??
aditya paliwal somewhere around 20k
Aayush Bhingare as if a buyer who is buying a 24-25 lac car cares about 20k more 😑
aditya paliwal boy I just did my job of informing you..... your complaints should be aimed at Jeep India
Aayush Bhingare thank you for that.
Even smallest of Cost cutting translates to huge profits in mass production mate
I must say.. Its one good looking SUV! Its missing out some features but the pricing is pretty neat for a jeep..
Those blanks on the steering wheel are an eyesore. Otherthan that it is pretty solid for the money!
Finally the awaited review. 👍🏻👍🏻
Rear exterior design is so dope
Sir David Gilmour! Shine on mate ✌️
24 lakhs for this would be hitting a sweet spot!
endevour and fortuner need to beef up their game!!
Honest Critical reviews.
That's why I prefer to watch AutoCar reviews over the other ❤️
Now this car is available with an opening price tag of 14.65 !!!!
It's a steal guys ...
PRICES LAUNCHED !!!! 14.90 LACS FOR THE BASE UPTO AROUND 20.5 FOR THE TOP END 4×4 VERSION!!! SPOT ON PRICING BY JEEP !KUDOS!!
Jeep.compass...Aan.rod..praej
Can u guide me which one is better buy jeep compass or Tata hexa
Impeccable Pricing! Gonna be a huge hit
Fiats chassis balance is just sublime! Finally Autocar is praising Fiat... indirectly may be!😁
Worth buying a jeep. With price comparable to top end creta. Should make hyundai reduce the price of creta.
Car seems great, nice review by Shahpur but it would be better if the music volume is put to a low profile.
One thing is very true, a car enthusiast will buy compass. Surely.
AutoCar please give a comparison video of seltos and compass
Silver color just killed the looks of it!
sharath budannavar
Which colour of the zeep looks best ?
Shubham Kumar red
loved it an yes sunroof will be the biggest goodies it can be
RIP BMW x1, Audi Q3
not really
Faiz Syed its 10 Lakhs cheaper than X1 and Q3. Yes there is a compromise in features but I would save 10L and have better off-roading features!
you do have a point,but people looking for luxury brands wont buy a jeep,it doesnt have the brand value of the german trio,after all this is india
there comes tucson, tiguan and koraq
Not likely..mate Germans are their grand-dads when it comes to making cars...
Mind you, cars we get here in India are all together different when it comes to luxury and driving pleasure to achieve price point.
hate the initial lag from diesel ... choose the 1.4 turbo petrol
Tommorow its mine...😎😍😍
Such a disappointment. Jeep Compass for Indian market is missing so many features and safety while in the international market it comes loaded with all the features and safety for the same price.
Things that are missing so far:
Auto headlamps
Auto wipers
Auto dimming mirror
Automatic Diesel transmission
Panoramic sunroof
Park Assist
8.4" UConnect
7" color drivers information display
Cruise Control
Blind spot monitoring
Lane Sense
Forward Collision warning
7 Airbags
Heated seats
Heated steering
It costs 22.5 Lacs with all the premium features in the US market. Why should I pay around 24 Lacs and get so little? Jeep just ruined my plans.
Exactly ! anyone who has seen the US based models would be skeptical in buying it now .
Hey buddy! No, it does not come power packed with all the options you listed above here in the US. It's all basically a marketing gimmick here. You want a sunroof then you have to go for x package.

Jawed Huda Same goes for me brother. Don't know why Foreign companies give such step motherly treatment to India and expect us to pay more.
Jawed Huda Not sure about why all above mentioned features are not there for India , but len sensing feature in India would have useless 😉
Jawed Huda These foreign car manufacturers treat us Indians like crap and withhold features while at the same time jacking up the price. Why should we pay more than other countries and get lesser features than them? FIAT may have hit home the final nail in the coffin.
choosen jeep compass my next premium suv offroader.
Petrol automatic version is available?
now as the compass is officially launched.... please make a buyers guide video of this vehicle....
Thank You
If this car comes in under 20lakhs it will be amazing
Abhi shek no way it would cost more than 26 on road
it's costs about 20lakh in UK, on road. It should've been the same in India, if not cheaper since the production is right here, as it was predicted earlier. I don't get why it's so priced so high..
Abhi shek the cost starts from 14.5 lakhs
your dream came true
Taxes people taxes !!!! You pay 45% as tax + road tax in India that makes car very costly not sure about other countries
Please get the Petrol engine review too
Does it have leather seats?

Arnav Sanghvi Drove a hexa and crysta back to back.
hexa is miles ahead interms of comfort,interior look fit and finish amd ooh the ride quality!Was inclined to buy one however þhe things you stated like reliability ,aftersales support,resale value etc made me wait a few.months see how the vehicle performs in the market and wait for some long term ownership reviews :/
The tata image seriously got the best of the Hexa
sounak bar it's selling very well
sounak bar ,its bcoz the tata brand image...imagine the sales figures if it was a hyundai.I have driven that car,lots of features,lots of space,comfier than innova...bigger than innova.....but nobody wants to pay the premium amount for a tata....they could have launch the vehicle under a different brand name and logo....like toyota and lexus, hyundai and Genesis, Honda accura....
Aby Mathew exactly !
Avik Chatterjee, true
IT GOT 5 STARS IN SAFETY TEST GOOD
I think Jeep now has a good real opening with this but they need to iterate real quick to stand the waves of competition. Owning a real Jeep would be a real dream for many (Ahem Mahindra fans - step aside) and I think this can just do that. Just improve on the bells and whistles inside and they have a killer!
Was waiting for this from long time... Jeep... I may say, not too good, classy, not too bad either
Can someone please tell me the difference between the petrol limited AT and limited optional AT

Zohaib Quaiyumi
The remarkable pricing made me watch this... ☺ Aggressively priced indeed... Hats off to Jeep 🚙
Hello Autocar team, When can we expect the Jeep Compass petrol automatic review?
Prabu Shundarrrem company is planning to launch jeep compass petrol automatic around 17 Oct 2017
haha i love that he's listening to Gilmour, what a legend!
No cruise control. Thats surprising. Also felt that Air-conditioning was aver bit poor.
Finally after a loooooooooooooooong wait
love auto car...I want a comparison bt Jeep compass ...fortuner Nd endeavour plzzzz
p vinay jeep will stand against tuscon and crv not against 7 seater fortuner and endy
p vinay
Compass is a 5 seater and Endeavor is 7 seater, the Compass I believe can only have a fight with Hyundai's Tucson BTW not the Santa-Fe because that is a small 7 seater
fire light
Thanks for other suggestions because I was not able to think of other cars i.e. 🇯🇵CR-V, 🇩🇪Tiguan (because Honda is Japanese and VW is German)
p vinay it's very compact say (Hyundai Tucson)..we can't compare with the two monsters..We can compare with the price
Why compare apples and oranges?
I have been patiently waiting for this very moment in time for the past 3 lives
I love you autocar (not as much as i love jeep)
offroading tests?
Why can't I get the all black interiors as an option for the top end :(
hope the price stays on road at around 25. will be a big game changer. price will be the factor
How much on road cost in delhi for base model?
Sudhir Kumar
I know price difference but will u compare it with q3 because it's 2.0 engine
Which varient is this?
What is the price of jeep compass limited in tamilnadhu
launched at 15 lakh.. awesome
Autocar forgets to take a look at boot and its practicality.... most of the time...
please do take a look... its very important.
Do u think its good for 20-24 lakhs?
Good review. Music chewed my brains though.
Does it have navigation GPS?
ground clearance is very less, beside that sunroof, cruise control, black color interior is needed, since it's off roading so interior will get mudy
Hey guys! nice video! keep up the good work. I wanna work for you. where do i send my CV?
Great review
love this jeep
beautiful design
My uncle plans to buy it after i strongly recommended it. looking forward on getting my hands on this beast.

Sir this car is amazing in Indian market but what service network in fact my friend is in californa he says jeep service is not upto mark
Whats d top speed?
Can we expect panoramic sunroof in diesel automatic coming in December 2017 ?
Jeep . why did u bring the compass as ur first CKD product in india ? we all need to see jeep wrangler as the first ckd product .... think of a jeep wrangler for the price of an innova sats gonnna be interesting
I will buy it soon
Where is the Cruise Control?
Hi, I also like Compass very much, but tell Jeep to Add few but Important features like Sunroof, Sat Nav, LED DRL and auto rear view mirror, and I'm sure that Compass going to be very successful car.
hai sir Iam looking for 5 lakhs budget car can I buy tata tiago petrol or diesel and wch variant should I buy sir please suggest me nice model
In America it cost 15 Lakh rupees y so costly here if it is built locally.
dude it's 15 lacs only
lakshya sharma in India it costs the same
Plus American version has better features like bigger wheels, electric boot lid.
No runroof is a big trick missed! They should have included atleast in top end model. Also anyone can confirm ground clearance? it doesn't look much looking at the exterior if it's low, that will be a big dampener.
Lovely Vehicle !!
Wonderful Review #Autocar...Jeep Looks awsum..
