Finally, the day has come when the first made-in-India Jeep gets a price tag! The much-awaited Jeep Compass will be launched tomorrow. We expect the American automaker to price it in the range of Rs 18-25 lakh. We had the chance to experience the Compass in Goa recently. Read our first drive review to know more about the Compass.
Pre-bookings for the Compass started last month on June 20 with a fully refundable amount of Rs 50,000. Initial deliveries are expected to begin from tomorrow itself. The Compass has created a tremendous amount of hype in the market and as a result, FCA (Fiat Chrysler Automobiles) reported bookings of 1000 units in a mere three days.
The Compass will be retailed from exclusive Jeep dealerships along with FCA’s Destination Stores, which have all three brands: Fiat, Abarth and Jeep.
