Launched in 2017 and recently powered by new Euro 6D engines, Compass is the Jeep SUV that provides both the legendary off-road capability of the American brand and excellent driving dynamics. It has a modern design in pure, authentic Jeep style and a full array of advanced user-friendly connectivity and safety technologies.
Jeep Compass has a distinctive exterior design featuring a fine balance between dynamic lines and balanced proportions, adding up to an innovative aesthetic effect. It is an authentic Jeep with characteristic traditional design cues, such as the trapezoidal wheel arch and seven-slot grille nestled in a gloss black surround. LED headlamp bezels featuring a black outline add personality and attitude to its face.
A standout feature of the rear of the Compass is its unique LED tail lamps. Slim and rectangular in shape, they flow into the tailgate for a commanding yet premium appearance instantly recognisable as a Jeep Compass on the road or trail. Above all, it is authentically Jeep with off-road capabilities, the benchmark in its category, guaranteed by two advanced 4x4 systems: Jeep Active Drive and Jeep Active Drive Low. Each system can send the necessary torque to any one wheel when needed and both are equipped with Jeep Selec-Terrain with different modes (Auto, Snow, Sand and Mud modes, plus exclusive Rock mode on the Trailhawk trim only) for the best four-wheel-drive performance on any terrain, on and off the road, and in any weather condition.
New on the 2019 range are a Sting Grey exterior and Euro 6D type-approved diesel and petrol engines. The 2019 Compass is offered in four trim levels: Sport, Longitude, Limited and Trailhawk. There are two new special edition models: the sporty and distinctive "S" and the exclusive "Night Eagle", making specifying the right equipment and overall look easier than ever.
Furthermore, all versions are fully loaded with state-of-the-art infotainment systems: the Uconnect 7-inch radio with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto is now offered as standard from the Longitude trim upwards (together with the dual zone automatic air conditioning and the 17-inch alloy wheels), while the Uconnect 8.4-inch NAV radio with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto is available as an option on Longitude and is standard from the Limited trim level.
But customisation options do not stop there: customers can choose from seven different powertrain combinations, including two petrol and two diesel engines, and two gearboxes - the nine-speed automatic and the six-speed manual transmissions.
The petrol line-up features the 1.4-litre MultiAir2 Turbo engine with Stop&Start delivering 140 horsepower at 5,000 rpm and 230 Nm of torque at 1,750 rpm in combination with the six-speed manual gearbox and 4x2 configuration, and the 1.4-litre MultiAir2 Turbo engine producing 170 horsepower at 5,500 rpm and torque of 250 Nm at 2,500 rpm, paired to the nine-speed automatic transmission and 4x4 configuration.
These are complemented by the diesel line-up, including the 1.6-litre MultiJet II with Stop&Start delivering 120 horsepower at 3,750 rpm and 320 Nm of torque at 1,750 rpm, paired to the six-speed manual gearbox and 4x2 configuration, and the 2.0-litre MultiJet II with Stop&Start delivering 140 horsepower at 4,000 rpm - when paired to the nine-speed automatic gearbox - and 140 horsepower at 3,750 rpm - with the six-speed manual transmission. Both produce 350 Nm of torque at 1,750 rpm and come with the 4x4 configuration.
A higher output version of the 2.0-litre MultiJet II with Stop&Start - delivering 170 horsepower and 380 Nm of torque at 1,750 rpm in combination with the nine-speed automatic transmission and 4x4 configuration (including the Trailhawk specific low range mode) - completes the diesel offer available on Compass.
A 2.4-litre Tigershark petrol engine with MultiAir2 delivering 184 horsepower at 6,400 rpm and 237 Nm of torque is available in the Compass line-up sold in non-EU markets (Russia, Africa and the Middle East) together with a low output, 150 horsepower version of the same engine, both paired to the nine-speed automatic gearbox and 4x4 configuration.
