Jeep made their official entry into the Indian market back in 2017 with Compass SUV. The SUV became popular among customers in a very short span of time and is now a  common sight on our roads. Ever since the launch, Jeep has not made any major exterior changes to the Compass save for feature additions, and the SUV remains more or less the same as before in terms of design. Competition has caught up and is now offering much more updated and advanced vehicles in the segment. Jeep India has been working on certain vehicles which includes an updated or facelifted version of Compass SUV.
