The full story
The Compass base model is the Sport, from ₹17.99L ex-showroom; the top model is the Track Edition, from ₹26.95L. That is ₹8.96L more. The dearest way to buy the Track Edition is ₹30.95L.
The Track Edition adds 360° camera, Alpine premium sound system, panoramic sunroof and ventilated front seats, and 18 more over the Sport.
5 trims sit between the two, so the jump is rarely how anyone actually buys.
The best value for money on this ladder is the step into the Trail Edition, not the jump to the top; above it the Track Edition adds 360° camera, speakers (9 against 6) and Alpine premium sound system, and 6 more for the rest of the money.
