Jeep India launched a nine-speed automatic diesel version of the Jeep Compass Sport on October 26, 2026, priced at ₹21.99 lakh ex-showroom. The front-wheel-drive SUV is the company’s most affordable automatic Compass in India and brings an automatic option to the entry-level Sport variant for the first time.

Key Takeaways

  • The new variant pairs a 2.0-litre diesel engine with a nine-speed automatic gearbox.
  • Deliveries are scheduled to begin in the second week of November 2026.

Jeep Compass Sport engine and features

The Compass Sport 9AT uses a 2.0-litre MultiJet II turbo diesel engine producing 170 HP and 350 Nm of torque. Unlike some variants in the wider Compass range, the new model is front-wheel drive.

Standard equipment includes six airbags, Auto Hold, cruise control and a 21.3 cm Uconnect touchscreen with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. It also has steering-mounted controls and electrically adjustable door mirrors.

The SUV retains Frequency Selective Damping suspension and Dynamic Steering Torque, which are designed to support ride comfort and handling, respectively.

Accessories and delivery plans

An optional accessory pack costs ₹29,900 and includes ambient lighting, a dashcam with predictive safety features, a Swoosh decal, all-weather floor mats and mud flaps. That price is separate from the SUV’s ex-showroom price.

Jeep plans to deliver the variant through its dealerships and Stellantis Brand Houses across India. The wider Compass range continues to offer manual and automatic transmissions, as well as two-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive configurations.
