Jeep Compass facelift teased; Could get new green shade

Along with a new shade, the Compass facelift will get changes to the exterior and the interior.

The upcoming Jeep Compass facelift has been teased on the brand's Indian website. From the teaser image, it appears that the Compass could now get a new dark green shade. The SUV will be unveiled on January 7, 2021.

The updated Compass was unveiled at the 2020 Guangzhou International Motor Show. The SUV looks similar to the outgoing model but gets subtle changes like a slimmer grille, a new front bumper and LED headlamps. The SUV also gets a redesigned dashboard with a new 3-spoke steering wheel and a floating 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment head-unit that gets Amazon Alexa support.

The Compass facelift is likely to retain the same set of engines as before. These include the 2.0-litre, 4-cylinder diesel and the 1.4-litre turbo petrol engine. Both engines come with a 6-speed manual transmission as standard. The petrol is offered with a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic, while the diesel gets an optional 9-speed automatic.
