To mark 85 years of the brand globally, Jeep has launched a exclusive, limited-run version of its popular SUV in India: the Jeep Compass 85th Anniversary Edition. Strictly limited to just 85 units nationwide, this special model is based on the top-tier Model S (O) trim and comes in at the exact same starting price of Rs 26.70 lakh (ex-showroom).
Distinctive Exterior Upgrades On the outside, the 85th Anniversary Edition sets itself apart with bespoke styling touches. It features distinctive ’85’ decals across the doors, tailgate, and wheel hub caps, alongside a set of gloss-black 18-inch alloy wheels. The rest of the exterior retains the familiar Model S (O) design elements, including LED headlights with eyebrow-shaped LED daytime running lamps (DRLs), a signature black seven-slat front grille, LED fog lamps, LED tail-lights, and LED rear fog lamps.
Sporty All-Black Cabin with Gold Accents Step inside, and the cabin sports an all-black theme elevated by contrasting Mayan Gold accents. Highlights include:
- Black leatherette seats detailed with gold-coloured stitching
- Matching gold ambient lighting
- Illuminated side elements along the panoramic sunroof
For buyers looking for extra technology, Jeep is offering an optional 85th Anniversary AXS accessory pack. This add-on brings in a digital inside rear view mirror (IRVM), integrated front and rear dashcams, and additional illuminated features for the panoramic sunroof. (Jeep has yet to reveal the standalone price for this accessory pack.)
Loaded Equipment List Beyond the exclusive touches, the special edition carries over the comprehensive equipment list from the standard Model S (O) trim. Key features include:
- 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system
- 9-speaker Alpine premium audio system
- Powered and ventilated front seats with driver’s seat memory function
- Dual-zone automatic climate control
- Wireless smartphone charging pad
Proven Diesel Engine and Drivetrain Options Under the bonnet, the Compass 85th Anniversary Edition relies on the familiar 2.0-litre diesel engine, delivering 170HP and 350Nm of torque. Buyers can choose between two gearbox options and two drivetrain configurations:
- 6-speed manual transmission with Front-Wheel Drive (FWD)
- 9-speed automatic transmission with Front-Wheel Drive (FWD) or Four-Wheel Drive (4WD)
