The carmaker is expected to commence the pre-bookings for the updated Compass very soon. It will be produced at Fiat Chrysler Automobiles' (FCA) Ranjangaon plant in Maharashtra. The iconic brand is also developing a 7-seater version of the SUV, which reportedly will share its platform and powertrain options. The refreshed model will sport cosmetic upgrades inside out while the mechanical front will remain unchanged.

Visually, the 2021 Jeep Compass will be more aggressive than the outgoing model. It will get a bigger chrome finished seven-slat honeycomb mesh grille accompanied by sleek-looking new LED headlamps with LED DRLs, redesigned bumper, tweaked faux skid plate, bigger air dam, new fog lamps, new 5-spoke alloy wheels, new taillamps, and much more.

On the inside, the new Compass will be equipped with updated interiors, slightly revised dashboard design and all-leather upholstery. Moreover, the dual-tone pattern will be replaced by an all-black colour scheme. Another addition will be a floating 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system with UConnect 5 software supporting Android Auto, Apple CarPlay and voice control support. The SUV will also get a new 3-spoke steering wheel, ventilated front seats, wireless smartphone charging, auto AC, a 360-degree parking camera, a fully digital instrument console and much more.
