Introduction

Jeep has launched the Compass Track Edition in India at ₹26.78 lakh (ex-showroom), adding a style-focused variant to the lineup without changing the trusted 2.0L diesel heart.
The primary focus is exclusivity and road presence, while keeping the Compass’ capability, features, and everyday usability intact.

Specifications

The Compass Track Edition uses the familiar 2.0L MultiJet II diesel with 170 hp and 350 Nm, paired with a 6-speed manual or a 9-speed automatic.
Buyers get 4×2 with the manual and 4×4 with the automatic, echoing the model’s emphasis on real-world traction and highway comfort.

Features and highlights

  • A bolder face with a signature hood decal, Piano Black grille and badges, and a Track Edition insignia for instant recognition.
  • New 18-inch diamond-cut Tech Grey alloys with Spruce Beige accents sharpen the stance and add premium flair.
  • Inside, Tupelo Leatherette upholstery with Spruce Beige stitching, Espresso Smoke Chrome trim pieces, and model-specific floor mats set a richer tone.

Pricing and variants

  • Prices start at ₹26,78,200 (ex-showroom) for the MT 4×2, reflecting minor package adjustments depending on dealer fitments.
  • The AT 4×4 sits at the top at ₹30,58,200 (ex-showroom), with bookings open and deliveries expected to be quick in most cities.

Market context

This Track Edition builds on the top-spec Model S and is aimed at buyers who want a factory-customized look without altering the mechanical formula.
In the premium midsize SUV space, it lines up against the Hyundai Tucson, Tata Harrier, Mahindra XUV700, and MG Hector.

Expert commentary

Jeep positions the Track Edition as a more individualistic Compass—one that leans into design details while staying true to capability and performance.
The message is clear: exclusivity through finish and feel, backed by the same dependable hardware.

Equipment and tech

  • Expect familiar flagship comforts such as a panoramic sunroof, ventilated front seats, a crisp touchscreen with connected features, and a robust safety suite.
  • The Track Edition’s value story comes from the visual upgrades layered onto that established feature set.

Who should consider it?

  • Drivers who appreciate the Compass’ premium cabin and robust diesel punch, but want a more distinctive, factory-finished look.
  • Buyers who value an automatic with 4×4 and prefer a limited, design-led variant over aftermarket customization.

Delivery and availability

Bookings are live online and at dealerships, and many outlets are targeting immediate deliveries based on allocation.
It’s smart to confirm colors, exact accessories, and any pack inclusions at the time of booking.

Closing note

If a tasteful, head-turning Compass with the same trusted diesel and capable drivetrains sounds right, the Track Edition deserves a test drive – line up the MT 4×2 and AT 4×4 to see which suits the daily run and weekend plans best.
