Jeep Compass: Engine Specifications
Powering the Jeep Compass is the 2.0-litre turbocharged diesel engine tuned for 178 bhp and 350 Nm of peak torque. The oil burner is paired with a 6-speed manual and a 9-speed automatic transmission with power going to either the front wheels or four wheels, depending on the trim. Notably, the base Compass Sport gets only the manual gearbox.
Jeep discontinued the petrol engine option on the Compass last year, making the model a diesel-only offering. The new price cut though should help the SUV compete better against the Tata Harrier, MG Hector, Hyundai Tucson and Citroen C5 Aircross in the segment. Alternatively, it could also entice compact SUV buyers looking for diesel variants of the Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos to opt for the Compass Sport with its more affordable price tag.
The Jeep Compass mimics the design language of its older siblings, while the cabin is decently loaded on the top trims. The SUV comes with a 10.25-inch digital instrument console with a 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system that uses the new UConnect user interface. The system also comes with connected car features and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility.
