Last year, the Jeep Compass received quite a thoughtful mid-life update, with the brand focusing on fixing the SUV’s drawbacks on the inside but leaving the rest of the generally solid mechanical package unchanged. But with competition in the segment constantly intensifying, Jeep India has now expanded the Compass line-up by reintroducing the top-spec Traihawk in its facelifted form.

The Trailhawk badge is reserved for the most capable of Jeep’s offerings. SUVs with the ‘Trail Rated’ badge are put through a more rigorous set of tests to further improve off-roading capability. So the facelifted Compass Trailhawk continues with the same set of enhancements over the standard Compass, as earlier, but manoeuvrability in the rough has improved.

Styling

This is largely down to the redesigned bumpers, which are now even more chamfered than earlier, leading to an increase in approach angle from 26.1 to 30 degrees. Somewhat like the regular Compass after the facelift, the condensed seven-slat grille is largely ornamental, with the airdam below managing airflow and the LED headlamps now slimmed down to look more contemporary. A striking new touch is a red decal flanking the antiglare patch on the bonnet.
