Jeep is expected to bring the Compass facelift to India by the end of this year and this rendering gives you the best look how the final SUV could look like in flesh. There’s a seven-seater SUV in the works from Jeep for India.
We reported to you sometime ago that Jeep is working on a facelift for the Compass and going ahead, Jeep will also introduce a 7-seater SUV in India. The facelift in the Compass will be introduced on a global level and then it will eventually make it to India. Here, we have a rendering that gives us a best look of what we could expect from the Jeep Compass facelift and also the 7-seater SUV that’s due in some more time.
The Jeep Compass facelift comes with significant design changes both at the front and rear. From what we have been able to decipher from spy shots, the headlamps on the new Compass will be much slimmer with new LED DRL elements and grille is expected to be revised as well. There will be heavy changes on the bumper down below with a different design for the air dams and fog lamp housings. It is also expected to be much chunkier than before.
Moving on to the rear, the SUV will boast of similar design changes as the front with redesigned tail lamps and a revised bumper as well. The number plate housing is however expected to remain the same. Coming to the 7-seater SUV, it is certain that it will be based on the Compass platform. However, what’s unclear is whether Jeep will design this SUV based on the Compass or whether it will be completely new model. If its designed on lines of the Compass, it will carry over the facelifted design at the front but will come with a more distinct rear end. Think on lines of the Harrier and the Gravitas and it will certainly be longer.

The seven-seater SUV is meant on take on the likes of the Ford Endeavor and the Toyota Fortuner in our market, and like every Jeep, it will be plenty capable off-road. Coming back to the Compass facelift, this very popular SUV will see its most important change on the inside. It is expected to come with a completely redesigned dashboard with a much larger infotainment screen. Although its already decently equipped, the updated SUV will also gain a lot in terms of features and you can definitely expect connected car technology to be part of the mix.

Under the hood, the Jeep Compass facelift in India is expected to continue with the current crop of engines. That includes the 170PS 2.0-litre Multijet diesel engine and the 163PS 1.4-litre Multiair turbocharged petrol engine. Further down the line, Jeep is also working on a sub-4m SUV to rival the likes of the Vitara Brezza and the Venue. Jeep is also looking forward to bringing in two more iconic models to India. There’s certainly a lot going on at Jeep and we are very excited for all that’s coming.
