Our take on this /// Verdict

The Jeep Compass Longitude DDCT is a compelling choice for those seeking a premium SUV that balances comfort, performance, and off-road capability. While it comes with a hefty price tag, the vehicle justifies it through its solid build quality, premium interiors, and exceptional handling. The 1.4 Multiair petrol engine, paired with a 7-speed DCT, offers smooth city driving and robust performance, although it may not be as fuel-efficient as the diesel variant. The interior is well-appointed with features like a twin pod instrument cluster, comfortable seating, and ample storage. However, some users have reported issues with the clutch and gearbox, and the service network is relatively smaller. Despite these drawbacks, the Jeep Compass stands out for its stability, safety features, and overall driving experience, making it a strong contender in the midsize premium SUV segment.

Price

In India, the Jeep Compass Longitude DDCT is priced around 23-25 lakhs ex-showroom, depending on the region and any local taxes. On-road prices can range from 27-30 lakhs, including registration, insurance, and other costs. While this is on the higher side compared to some competitors like the Tata Harrier and MG Hector, the premium feel, robust build, and comprehensive safety features justify the cost for those who value these aspects. However, potential buyers need to consider the higher service costs and the relatively smaller service network when making their decision.

Latest Updates

Wednesday, 20 September 2023 11:45 AM The Jeep Compass Longitude DDCT now includes next-generation technologies such as a 10.1-inch digital infotainment touchscreen and an available 10.25-inch frameless full-color TFT digital cluster. These upgrades enhance the vehicles tech credentials significantly. I believe these features will appeal to tech-savvy buyers.

Wednesday, 20 September 2023 04:27 PM Prices for the 2024 Jeep Compass 4x2 AT, which includes the Longitude DDCT variant, start from Rs 23.99 lakh, going up to Rs 29.99 lakh. This pricing strategy aims to make the Compass more accessible to a wider audience in the Indian market.

Wednesday, 06 September 2023 08:51 PM The 2024 Jeep Compass Longitude DDCT has been introduced with a new front grille insert treatment and updated wheel designs, enhancing its exterior appeal. The vehicle also features advanced safety and security features, including a semi-autonomous driving system and a 360-degree surround-view camera. I think these updates make the Compass a more competitive option in the compact SUV segment.

Thursday, 07 September 2023 01:01 AM Jeep has announced that the 2024 Compass Longitude DDCT will come with a 2.0-liter, direct injection, turbocharged engine, mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. This setup is expected to improve fuel economy and drivability. The engine stop-start technology and low emissions are also notable features.

Wednesday, 30 August 2023 02:46 PM The Jeep Compass Longitude DDCT benefits from the Jeep Active Drive 4x4 system, which includes a fully disconnecting rear axle and power-transfer unit for enhanced fuel economy. This system also provides better off-road capability, aligning with Jeeps heritage.

Wednesday, 30 August 2023 04:52 PM The 2024 Jeep Compass Longitude DDCT features the Selec-Terrain Traction Management System, allowing drivers to choose from various modes tailored to different driving conditions. This system, along with higher ground clearance and the Jeep Active Drive Low 4x4 system, enhances its off-road prowess.

Wednesday, 30 August 2023 03:20 PM Jeep has emphasized the off-road capability of the Compass Longitude DDCT, particularly in the Trailhawk version, which comes with features like hill descent control and terrain management modes. This makes the vehicle a strong contender for those who want both city driving and occasional off-road adventures.

Wednesday, 27 July 2022 04:01 PM The Jeep Compass Longitude DDCT is available in several colors, including Galaxy Blue, Pearl White, Brilliant Black, and more. This variety in color options allows buyers to choose a hue that suits their preferences. I think the Galaxy Blue is a standout option that really highlights the vehicles design.

Wednesday, 27 July 2022 05:40 AM The interior of the Jeep Compass Longitude DDCT is equipped with features like automatic climate control, a sunroof, and a multi-function steering wheel. These amenities enhance the comfort and convenience of the vehicle.

Wednesday, 27 July 2022 05:57 AM The Jeep Compass Longitude DDCT has a certified mileage of 17.1 kmpl, making it a relatively fuel-efficient option in its segment. The 60-liter fuel tank capacity also adds to its practicality for long drives.

Mileage

Tuesday, 19 November 2024 11:06 AM The mileage of the Jeep Compass Longitude DDCT is a consideration for potential buyers. The 1.4 Multiair petrol engine typically offers around 11-12 kml in city conditions and up to 15-16 kml on highways. While these figures are respectable, they are not the best in the segment, especially when compared to diesel variants. For those concerned about running costs, the petrol engines mileage is decent but not outstanding, making it essential to weigh this against the vehicles other strengths.
