Latest media reports suggest that Jeep Compass will soon get a top of the range Limited Plus variant, which will come with a Panoramic Sunroof. The variant is expected to launch next month.
Jeep Compass is one of the most popular SUVs in its segment. Despite having the huge brand name of Jeep, the Compass fails to live up to our hopes. The SUV is a soft-roader with a lot of off-roading features. Currently, it comes in total 10 variants with petrol and diesel engine options. It starts at Rs 15.35 Lakhs and goes up to Rs 21.94 Lakhs (ex-showroom Delhi). Now, the latest scoop from Autocar India reveals that there is going to be a new top-range variant in its lineup. The Limited Plus variant might launch next month. It gets some cosmetic upgrades along with new features. It has been spotted testing on roads and the most imminent thing seen is the new Panoramic sunroof.

It will continue to come with safety features such as 6 airbags, cornering fog lamps, all season tires, electronic parking brake, Electronic stability control (ESC), and Reverse parking sensors with a reverse camera.
