2020 Jeep Compass

There are four total trim levels available with the new Compass, and they include the Sport, Latitude, Limited, and Trailhawk. All of them have something special to offer, but in terms of exterior features, the most obvious difference is in available badges. Some useful features are standard from the beginning, like heated mirrors, but you'll have to upgrade to the Latitude for alloy wheels and roof rails. The Limited primarily focuses on interior upgrades, but the Trailhawk offers a raised suspension, skid plates, and off-road tires.

The engine in the new Compass is the same across all its trim options. Under the hood, you'll find a powerful 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine that boasts an impressive 180 horsepower coupled with 175 pound-feet of torque. This mates to a six-speed or nine-speed automatic transmission in most models, but you have the option for a six-speed manual on the Sport and Latitude trim levels. Whichever engine and trim level you choose, you can be confident that you'll enjoy the thrill and excitement that Jeep drivers have come to know and appreciate.

Performance is where every Jeep vehicle shines, and the new Compass is no exception. Whether you're staying on the road or heading off the pavement, you can expect reliable performance for the entire adventure. The Trail Rated Trailhawk version is capable of conquering a variety of off-road challenges, thanks to its superior traction, maneuverability, articulation, ground clearance, and water fording capabilities. Of course, all-wheel drive is available on every model, so you can always get that extra bit of traction.

Inside the Compass, you'll find a surprisingly cozy interior with soft-touch materials ranging from cloth and vinyl to premium leather. The rear cargo floor is adjustable, and the power liftgate makes it easier than ever to take advantage of all that space. Winter drives are no longer a problem either, thanks to the heated front seats and steering wheel. Even so, the dual-zone automatic temperature control lets both you and your passengers stay comfortable. For a vehicle designed for the rugged outdoors, the Compass provides a delightfully comfortable ride.

Safety is the most important factor in any vehicle, and the Compass has plenty to offer. Numerous driver assistance systems work together to protect you and your passengers from the dangers of the road. Full-speed forward collision warning is among the most impressive, as it can go so far as to hit the brakes when an oncoming collision is detected. Additionally, you can enjoy Lanesense, which will alert you should you move out of your lane accidentally without signaling.
