The used car market has been a frequent search among Indians. Obviously, who won’t want a luxury car at the price of a mid-size SUV, or even a spacious seven-seater at the price of a compact SUV? But most buyers don’t search for the ones that offer a compelling package, and in the used market, the cost is also quite accessible. Attention Readers!

Rise Of Used Car Market Brings More Options
Listings range from affordable hatchbacks to luxury SUVs, making the used car market a great option for new car buyers. These vehicles have depreciated heavily, making SUVs cost much less and more accessible to buyers. However, there’s a flaw too. While there are plenty of listings, some cars may hide issues: an accidental repair, engine problems, and more. Still, some cars make more sense to buy used than new. And in this article, we’ll be talking about one such SUV.

Jeep Compass Becomes A Worthy Option To Look At In The Used Car Market
If there’s a bargain that you need in the used car market, you can search for the Jeep Compass. Currently, a new Jeep Compass would cost you between Rs. 21.87 lakh and Rs 37.76 lakh (on-road, Mumbai). Compared to its rivals, this price might feel high. But in the used car market, it depreciates heavily. Because of this, the current series or some years-older models are available under the Rs 15 lakh mark, while post-2020 models can be found under the Rs 10 lakh mark. At that price, the Compass is a great deal.

Best Used Car Under Rs 10 Lakh
Currently, under the Rs 10 lakh mark, you could at most get a base variant of a sub-4m SUV. That might lack features, space, and comfort. At that price point, a used Compass makes more sense. You get a long SUV that would eventually cost you above Rs 13 lakh, without compromising on looks or build quality. The premium interiors further add to its appeal.
Moreover, the SUV is currently available with a sole 2.0-litre diesel engine, while in the used car market, you can choose between the 1.4-litre turbo petrol engine and the diesel mill. As an added advantage, you can even get the AWD (All-Wheel-Drive) version at a price well below the current market price.
So, with a combination of everything, the Jeep Compass becomes a worthy SUV to be had in the used car market.
