Speaking about the transmission system the petrol variant is available with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox transmission system. The diesel variant comes equipped with a six-speed manual and a nine-speed automatic gearbox transmission system.
The first generation of Jeep Compass was launched five years back in 2017 and underwent the first facelift in 2021. On the occasion of its 5th Anniversary, the Indian alliance of the US carmaker launched its Anniversary Edition in August. According to reports, the company will launch the next generation of Jeep Grand Cherokee in the Indian car market by the end of this year.
