Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) India has announced the opening of pre-bookings for its Made in India Jeep Compass. The Jeep Compass, manufactured locally at FCA’s state of the art joint-venture facility in Ranjangaon, near Pune will be available in three trims – Sport, Longitude and the Limited. Customers will have a choice of five colours Minimal Grey, Exotica Red, Hydro Blue, Vocal White and Hip Hop Black as well as options in 4×2 and 4×4. The Jeep Compass is being offered with two powertrain options – the 160bhp Multi-air petrol and the 170bhp Diesel.
The SUV will also come with options of the 6-speed manual transmission (Petrol and Diesel) and the 7-speed Dual Dry Clutch Technology Automatic or DDCT. Both these engines will be scalable to BS VI regulatory requirements in India. The Jeep Compass 4×4 will be equipped with Jeep Active Drive and Select-Terrain Traction Management System. The SUV will come with a Driveline Disconnect Technology (DDT). True to its name, DDT disconnects the drive that goes to the rear wheels automatically when not required. This helps in fuel saving and assists safer driving. The Compass will also offer the Electric Parking Brake (EPB) across the range.
The EPB comes in four modes. The Made-in-India Jeep Compass is being manufactured in 50 different trim, powertrain, transmission and colour combinations so Indian customers will have an extensive range of choice. The Compass is made with a comprehensive blend of pioneering engineering technologies, inclusion of impressive safety & security features, powerful engines options and excellent transmission technology.
