1. Jeep Compass Facelift

   

   First on the upcoming Jeep SUVs list is the new mid-cycle update of the already existing Jeep compass which is expected to feature the same BS6-compliant 1.4-litre turbo-petrol engine and 2.0-litre turbo-diesel engine. The petrol variant churns out 163HP of power whereas the diesel variant gives out 173HP. The engines are expected to be mated with 7-speed Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT) for petrol engine and a 9-speed torque converter automatic for the diesel engine.

   However, not much is known about the interior but rumours have it the new facelift will feature an all-new infotainment system. Other than that we can expect a few minor changes. Just like its predecessor, this new upcoming Jeep SUV will surely turn out to be a showstopper.

2. 7-Seater Jeep Compass

   

   After the jeep compass facelift Jeep is also planning to introduce the 7-seater version of the compass SUV. This 7-seater is planned to be launched in Brazil but will make its way to India by late 2020 or early 2021.

   Talking about the engine specifications, the Low-D 7-seater SUV is expected to have a 1.3-litre, 4-cylinder turbocharged MultiAir 16V engine featuring electrically control valve opening. This engine is capable of producing 180bhp of power and torque between 225Nm and 245Nm. This will be the petrol variant which will be available with a 6-speed manual transmission and a 9-speed ZF sourced automatic unit.

3. Jeep Compact SUV

   

   The last upcoming Jeep SUVs to launch by 2021 is a compact SUV which will actively rival the Hyundai Venue and the Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza. Jeep could use Fiat’s frugal 1.6-litre multi-jet diesel engine with BS6 complaint tweaks.

   The compact SUV could also use a 1.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine straight from Fiat’s FireFly line-up. The 1.0-litre turbo petrol produces 118 bhp of power and 190 nm of torque, available in both automatic and manual transmission.
