Jeep Compass Conquers The Great Indian Desert!

Jeep recently launched the more hardcore and off-road-oriented version of the Compass known as the Trailhawk. The Trailhawk caters to the niche set of customers due to its added capabilities over the standard Compass. One of these niche customers is Mr. Abhimanyu Alsisar who embarked on a journey with his Compass Trailhawk to put it to the test. The 1200+ km road trip involved all kinds of terrains including the Great Indian desert and the Trailhawk passed with flying colors!

With the challenges we placed before the Jeep Compass Trailhawk, it proved and established itself as a bonafide off-road SUV. The Jeep Compass Trailhawk’s features and capabilities will certainly make it the most preferred SUV for off-roading aficionados and adventure seekers.”

The Jeep Compass facelift new LED headlamps and DRLs up front and the iconic seven slat front grille with some chrome studs. The taillamps and the alloys are completely new too. The rest of the SUV looks relatively unchanged, aside from an updated lighting configuration for the tail lamps. If we look at it that way, this isn’t a major overhaul as far as the exterior design is considered but the thing looks different inside.
