JEEP COMPACT SUV (515)

Jeep is taking a shot at a sub-4 meter SUV codenamed Jeep 515 for the Indian market. It will be later presented in Brazil and Russia. The car is still under the thoughts and will turn into reality if Jeep gets positive India’s reactions. Jeep compact SUV (515) will have an all-new diesel motor, scaled back to the 1.6-litre MJD unit. It might also have a choice of a 1.3-litre Multi jet motor.

The Jeep Compass has been out for three years, and this is the first substantial upgrade the mid-size SUV has received. It has the seven-box front grille with chrome accents, as well as elegant LED headlights with integrated LED DRLs. The bumper has been updated as well, with a black horizontal air inlet in the centre bordered by LED fog lights. The 18-inch wheels have a unique five-spoke two-tone design. There are two engine options, four trim levels spanning 11 variations, and seven exterior colour options for the new Compass.

The floating 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system with FCA’s newest Uconnect 5 now situated above the aircon vents is the show-stopper on the interior. An all-digital 10.2-inch display, controlled by a new three-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel, further entices the driver. Wireless smartphone charging, front ventilated seats, a panoramic sunroof, a 360- degree camera system, a power tailgate, cruise control, and eight-way power-
adjustable front seats with a memory function are among the cabin’s other features.

Safety:

The Compass is extremely well-equipped in terms of safety, with over 60 active and passive safety features like six airbags, rain brake assistance, hill hold and descent control, electronic roll mitigation, and brake lock differential, to name a few. Vehicle data, location-based services, stolen vehicle assist, geofencing, and driver analytics are all included in the Compass’s connected car technology.

Engines:

The engines remain the same, with a 1.4-litre turbo petrol engine and a 2.0- litre turbo diesel engine under the hood. The former produces 160 horsepower and 250 Nm of torque, while the latter produces 168 horsepower and 350 Nm of peak torque. Both engines share a six-speed manual transmission. The petrol engine has a seven-speed DCT gearbox, while the oil burner has a nine- speed automatic transmission with 4×4 drive.

Specifications:

The company plans to equip the car with a 1.6L motor that will deliver 118bhp and 320Nm of Torque. The petrol meter could be a 1.4-litre T-jet unit. The customers will be offered both manual and programmed transmission, and the diesel model could be 1.5L MJD and a gearbox of 5 speeds.

That is all the information available at present as the company is yet to reveal its further details.

The Jeep Compass is priced from 17.19 lakhs to 28.49 lakhs. The pricing of the petrol version of the Compass varies from 17.19 lakh to 25.49 lakh, while the price of the diesel version is between 18.89 lakh and 28.49 lakh.
