It is not all one way: the Limited (O) gives up cruise control.
Longitude (O2) or Limited (O), and what each costs
Where you start
Longitude (O2)
From ₹23.63L to ₹25.70L ex-showroom Delhi
This is where the Compass starts feeling like its price: dual-pane panoramic sunroof, the 10.1in screen with navigation, dual-zone climate, keyless go, wireless charging, leatherette and Jeep's connected services. Worth the stretch from the Sport if you can find the money, and the automatic is the one to have, because cruise control only comes with it.
The step up
Limited (O)
₹24.83L ex-showroom Delhi
Rs 1.20 lakh over the Longitude (O2) manual buys 18in alloys, LED tail lamps, rain-sensing wipers, a power tailgate and a memory driver's seat. The catch is that Jeep only prices it as a manual, so there is no cruise control on this trim at any price, and no automatic to move up to without changing trim entirely.

Our take
Keeps ₹1.20L, and gives up only 8-way powered driver seat and rain-sensing wipers
Buy the Jeep Compass Longitude (O2) and keep the ₹1.20L: the Compass Limited (O) only adds small touches like 8-way powered driver seat, rain-sensing wipers and driver seat memory. Nothing there changes the car.
What Longitude (O2) to Limited (O) costs on the road
What you pay for this step depends on where you register it: ₹1,28,400 to ₹1,47,600 on the road, against the ₹1,20,000 the price list shows.
Why the road figure moves, and by how much
Road tax is charged on what the car costs, so moving up a trim moves the tax up with it. The ₹1,20,000 is the distance between two price tags; the road figures add the tax and the charges that difference attracts.
The rate is your state's to choose, and they do not choose alike, so this one step is worth ₹19,200 more in one place than in another. Of the 25 states we can price this step in, Gujarat, Arunachal Pradesh and Mizoram are level at the lowest, and Kerala comes out highest.
Only the rate where the car is registered applies to you, so hold a dealer's quote against your own state's figure rather than the range. The range is still worth knowing: it is why two owners can quote this step to each other, differ by ₹19,200, and both be right.
