A year after its launch, the Tata Harrier is back with a more powerful diesel engine, more equipment and an automatic gearbox. Co-incidentally, the Jeep Compass got a few updates of its own recently too, including a diesel auto powertrain and more equipment. Which one is best? Renuka Kirpalani picks a winner.

Jeep is over hyped here.. It is considered one of the most unreliable brand in US.
Compass is a great car, no doubt. But it has its issues The 9 speed auto is nowhere near as enthusiastic as the hyundai 6 speed in the Harrier The compass isn't as spacious It isn't VFM anymore, limited plus is almost 30 lacs in some cities, and I'm sorry but a compact SUV like that is not worth 3 million rs, I'd rather shell out some more and get a proper SUV like the fortuner Ofcourse it has its merits as well, compass is the better handler of the two The 2.0 Multijet is the best in the compass compared to any other versions The only one with 4x4 out of the two Best fit and finish of the two If I had to pick, I'd pick the Harrier automatic, just my personal preference

Had taken a test drive of the BS6 Harrier AT recently, absolutely loved it, I have a problem with 2 things first the touch screen and the reverse camera is a disgrace at this price point, secondly tata motors should focus on improving there electronics inside led reading lamp switch wasn't working, lastly the steering is not bad but yes it follows the road and it will tire you more than the compass.

Compass looks better, handles better, has 4x4, better infotainment, better attention to detail with those red stitching on seats, better steering. Not right to say "clear winner". Compass is better for classier and self driving owners who don't mind spending the extra bucks. Harrier is better for chauffeur driven and gives much more value for money
Honestly i'd go for the jeep cause i have test driven both cars and the jeep just feels so much better to drive. Bear in mind that there are people who buy cars for the basic fun of driving and the compass does fulfill that desire. Some models of the compass are slightly cheaper. The harrier is good but just too all over the place kinda car for me. In the end, i believe the extra 3-4 lakhs is worth it.
I cant buy even a santro and here i am watching harrier. Man tata uped their game alot. Recently ive been to tata showroom and saw harrier. It is a beast! Even better than fortuner which is a big deal for a SUV.
Harriet clear winner on price , size , looks , better gearbox performance , that woooden cabin looks more plush , Harrier’s 2wd works as well as compass’s 4wd , very spacious and comfortable and well ofcourse omega arc Land Rover platform is a boast
I was waiting for this comparo after the launch of the BS6 Harrier & was also expecting for other rivals to jump into the fray & spice up things, but, as always, Renuka Ma'am covered it up in a way no one can & came up with such an intriguing review...!👏👏👏 Tata has really come a long way & the Harrier is a testament that our perception towards the company needs to change. Its such a balanced product which has something to offer to every consumer. Comments might pour in to highlight the missing connected car tech & other useless features, but this car is all about enjoying the feel behind the wheel, the driving experience & that is something which will keep one more entertained than the long list of tech wizardry found in some other competitors. Great job Tata motors for bringing in such a great product & Autocar India for always exceeding our expectations.....!😊🎊🎉
If I am allowed to choose then it's definitely Harrier.. not only because of price tag but also did the fact that it's our home grown Tata which is now giving serious competitions to foreign manufacturers..

2 years ago Compass was a value proposition. It made a segment of its own but now... it is the most expensive with trailhawk models touching nearly Rs.30lakh in some states. Not worth buying right now. Jeep needs to reconsider its pricing and maybe bring in a facelift soon after Coronavirus pandemic ends.

AWD on Jeep should justify the price tag. But then again how many people are really going to make use of it is a question. So maybe the AWD less variant should be a good comparison to Harrier.
I drove the Harrier AT after seeing this video. Unfortunately, the transmission isn’t as good as I’d hoped it would be, and the Diesel engine makes way too much noise in the cabin. There is no place to rest your other hand if you’re cruising with one hand. The power of the harrier is good on paper but it let down by the transmission. I love the positive steps Tata is taking, if they improve some of the finer details, the car would be much more attractive.
Harrier❤❤💪💪
Uconnect system is the best in industry.. 9 speed gearbox, better build quality than Indian cars, ride quality, interior fit and finish..flat fold seats..iconic design..I can go on

Harrier all the way✌️✌️
Jeep compass is the best ........ superb driving dynamics ......... even though compass is heavier and they share same engine technology , compass just blows out the harrier with performance , segment first suspension - fsd , jeep active 4*4 , and premium built quality justify the price ........ jeep compass can simply blows out fortuner and endeavour in performance .... jeep stability even above 200 + is remarkable ........

Compass has 4 wheel drive and the jeep brand shows how quality is the Compass and solid build.

If u love driving..compass is the one👍
I didnt understand why tata omitted an awd variant for this wonderful vehicle with a landrover platform! Tata's r&d surely needs some young auto enthusiast.if they had given an awd variant then people would have stopped comparing it with creta and all! Personally i also wished a revision for that headlight in bs6 version, it feels like an afterthought! Anyways both are good.
So if price is not a concern and ride quality is what we want, the jeep compass is the pick of the segment compared to it's rivals in both petrol automatic and diesel automatic isn't ?
@AutocarIndia, I remember from your BS4 siblings comparison that Harrier arrests the exterior noises significantly better compared with Compass. The BS6 comparison has an absolutely contrast dialogue on noise cancellation. Any Reason to defend that point? Thank you in advance, Great review though!
3:48 who noticed a HARLEY OR INDIAN passing by.. ...
Will post judgement after test driving both. Meanwhile, 1>Technically : It's Jeep, On 2>Commercial aspects : Harrier, 3>living with : Jeep. Brand Appeal and Resale value ; Jeep . But buy a slightly toned down option of Jeep and live happily. Jeep could have bridges the gap by offering 6 speed auto I think that would have sealed the deal. Any takers huh?
Exactly auto gearbox in Jeep is poor, we can feel lag in between the shifts

Buying TATA car is helping the nation grow. Huge respect to TATA group for standing with India and remember TATA built India. Surprisingly they donate much of the wealth to welfare of People. Buyers can compromise some of flimsy features to by a quality Indian product.
Don’t buy harrier....I puchased xz plus on 28 august, 2020 and it was not starting even on delivery time to they said battery has been discharged and they started it with some other car battery...after two hours it again didn’t get started and we complain to service centre and after that they have changed starter and then again gave car to us but problem persisted and then alternator and gave car back and still problems persisted and they are unable to identify the problem ...I’m demanding new peace which they are denying or at least correct the problem at earliest, can anyone help?
One of the Most awaited comparisons
I think at this price pt harrier should've tpms & ira. And an awd variant should be launched😊
Harrier for sure
Good to see Indian cars catching up. 👍
This shows Indian manufacturers have come a long way and are capable to make cars for even developed market.
This comparison give a good sense rather then people doing with seltos and creta.. I don’t know why ?? One more rival is missing its Hyundai tuson after facelift this will be much more comparable segment and hector too..
