About

The Jeep Compass Diesel Longitude is a well-rounded SUV that checks many boxes for potential buyers. Powered by a 2.0-liter Fiat Multijet diesel engine, it produces 170hp and 350Nm of torque, making it robust and capable both on highways and off-road terrains. The vehicle boasts excellent ride and handling, with negligible body roll and a stable ride even at high speeds. The interior is spacious and comfortable, with features like soft-touch plastics, a 10-inch infotainment system, and ventilated leather seats. The boot capacity is generous, and the safety features, including up to six airbags, add to its appeal. While it may lack some premium features in the rear, such as soft-touch door pads and a recline function for the rear seats, the Compass Diesel Longitude remains a stylish, rugged, and performance-oriented SUV that is hard to overlook in its segment.

Our take on this /// Verdict

The Jeep Compass Diesel Longitude is a compelling choice for those seeking a blend of ruggedness, performance, and comfort. From my experience, the vehicle excels in handling, particularly at high speeds, where it remains stable and confident, making it ideal for highway driving. The 2.0-liter diesel engine is powerful and refined, delivering strong low-end grunt that suits the Compasss rugged character. However, the clutch can be on the heavier side, which might not be ideal for daily city driving. The interior is well-appointed with soft-touch plastics, spacious seating, and ample boot capacity, although the lack of a recline function for the rear seatback is a minor drawback. Overall, the Compass Diesel Longitude offers a great balance of performance, comfort, and features, making it a solid option in its segment.

Price

The Jeep Compass Diesel Longitude is priced competitively in the Indian market. The ex-showroom price for the Longitude variant starts around 20 lakh, but when you factor in the on-road costs, including taxes, registration, and insurance, the price can go up to around 23-24 lakh. This pricing makes the Compass Diesel Longitude a value-for-money proposition, especially considering the features and performance it offers. For instance, the Longitude variant comes with essential features like soft-touch plastics, a robust diesel engine, and good safety credentials, all at a price that is substantially cheaper than the 4x4 diesel auto variants. This makes it an attractive option for buyers who want the Jeep experience without the added cost of 4x4 hardware.

Latest Updates

Tuesday, 24 October 2023 04:32 PM The Jeep Compass Diesel Longitude variant now comes with advanced safety features, including six airbags, an electronic parking brake, TPMS, and a reverse parking camera with sensors. This emphasis on safety is a significant upgrade and aligns with the growing consumer demand for safer vehicles. I think this is a great step towards making the Compass a more compelling choice.

Wednesday, 25 October 2023 12:44 AM The Jeep Compass Diesel Longitude variant offers a range of premium features such as LED headlights, fog lamps, alloy wheels, a 7-inch driver’s display, and a panoramic sunroof. These features make the Compass a comfortable and well-equipped SUV. I think the balance of features and price makes this variant a good value for money.

Tuesday, 24 October 2023 04:45 PM The 2024 Jeep Compass Diesel Longitude variant is priced competitively, starting at Rs. 24.83 lakh (ex-showroom), making it a viable option for those looking for a feature-packed SUV in its segment. I believe the pricing strategy will help Jeep attract more customers.

Monday, 18 September 2023 08:58 AM The 2024 Jeep Compass Diesel Longitude variant has been launched with a new 2WD diesel-automatic powertrain, making it more affordable. This variant now starts at Rs. 23.99 lakh (ex-showroom), which is Rs. 6.0 lakh cheaper than the previous 4x4 automatic versions. This move is expected to attract more buyers looking for an automatic transmission without the 4x4 capability. I think this is a smart move by Jeep to expand their market reach.

Monday, 18 September 2023 05:02 PM Jeep has introduced the BlackShark Edition for the 2024 Compass, replacing the Night Eagle edition. The BlackShark Edition of the Longitude variant features a new 7-slat grille with a mesh finish, 18-inch alloy wheels, and an all-black interior with red inserts. This cosmetic update gives the Compass a sleeker and more aggressive look. I believe these changes will appeal to buyers looking for a stylish SUV.

Wednesday, 06 September 2023 07:50 AM The 2024 Jeep Compass Diesel Longitude variant retains the 2.0L turbo diesel engine, producing 170 PS of power and 350 Nm of torque, paired with either a 6-speed manual or a 9-speed automatic transmission. This powertrain combination has been well-received for its performance and efficiency. I think this engine choice is one of the strong points of the Compass.

Wednesday, 06 September 2023 06:30 AM Jeep has updated the Compass lineup with new features, including a 10.1-inch digital infotainment touchscreen and a 10.25-inch frameless digital TFT gauge cluster. These technological advancements enhance the driving experience and make the Longitude variant more appealing. I believe these updates will make the Compass more competitive in the market.

Wednesday, 06 September 2023 08:25 PM Jeep has introduced a new front grille insert treatment and wheel designs up to 19 inches for the 2024 Compass, including the Longitude variant. These design changes give the SUV a fresh and modern look. I believe these updates will help the Compass stand out in a crowded market.

Wednesday, 06 September 2023 08:44 PM The Jeep Compass Diesel Longitude variant benefits from advanced safety and security features, including full-speed forward collision warning, pedestrian/cyclist automatic emergency braking, and blind-spot monitoring. These features significantly enhance the safety profile of the vehicle. I think this is a crucial aspect that will attract safety-conscious buyers.

Wednesday, 17 May 2023 11:24 AM Jeep has halted the production of the petrol variants of the Compass due to supply constraints, but the diesel variants, including the Longitude, continue to be available. This decision reflects the current market preferences leaning towards diesel engines in the SUV segment. I believe this focus on diesel will help Jeep maintain its market share.

Mileage

Wednesday, 20 November 2024 07:24 AM When it comes to mileage, the Jeep Compass Diesel Longitude is quite efficient. It typically delivers around 15-17 kmpl in mixed driving conditions, which is respectable given its powerful 2.0-liter diesel engine. This mileage, combined with a 60-liter fuel tank, ensures that the vehicle can handle long journeys without frequent fuel stops. While the AdBlue requirement every 8,000 km might add to the running costs, the overall fuel efficiency and performance make it a viable choice for those concerned about mileage and running costs.
