The Jeep Compass Limited Plus’ deliveries will
commence in early October, as per a new report from Autocar India. FCA will
release the new grade’s prices shortly. The Jeep Compass’ Limited Plus
adds new premium features to the equipment list. In addition to what is in the
Limited (O) grade, it features a dual-pane panoramic sunroof, automatic
headlamps, 18-inch alloy wheels, rain-sensing front wipers, 8-way power driver
seat with memory function and lumbar support, electrochromic auto-dimming IRVM
and 8.4-inch Uconnect touchscreen infotainment system. It's a shame that FCA
has given satellite navigation a miss.
Seat-mounted side airbags for front occupants and
full-length side curtain airbags for front and rear-passengers, which are
available in the Limited (O) grade's 2.0L diesel MT 4x4 configuration only, are
standard in the Limited Plus grade.
FCA will sell the Limited Plus grade in the same
configurations as the Limited (O) grade: 1.4L petrol AT 4x2 and 2.0L diesel MT
4x4. The 1.4L turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine produces 163 PS and 250
Nm of torque. It is coupled to the 7-speed DDCT dual-clutch automatic
transmission. The 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder engine develops 163 PS and
250 Nm of torque. It sends power to the wheels via a 6-speed manual
transmission that works with the Jeep Active Drive 4x4 system. The diesel
engine model features the Selec-Terrain traction control system as well.
Those looking for a diesel-AT configuration will
have to wait for the Jeep Compass Trailhawk that will go on sale in early 2019.
