Jeep Compass overview
Editorial context for design, cabin, performance, practicality, and buyer notes.
Design
The facelifted Compass receives several exterior updates, starting with a revised front fascia. The iconic seven-slot grille features a refreshed design with a prominent central Jeep logo. The headlights are updated to include new LED daytime running lights for improved visibility and a sharper look. At the rear, a redesigned bumper gives the SUV a cleaner profile. Depending on the chosen trim level, it rides on 18-inch or 19-inch alloy wheels. These modifications provide the vehicle with a more contemporary aesthetic while preserving its rugged character.
Interior
Inside the cabin, the Compass features a revised dashboard with new trim accents and improved materials. The centerpiece of the updated interior is an advanced infotainment system with a larger touchscreen, offering faster response times and updated graphics. It supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for seamless smartphone integration. Comfort is enhanced with new upholstery options, including combinations of leather and fabric, while premium trims like the Summit offer full leather seats with ventilation. The cargo space accommodates up to 424 liters, and the rear seats fold down to easily expand the loading capacity for larger items.
Performance
The updated Compass offers two key hybrid powertrains. The 1.5-liter mild-hybrid (MHEV) produces 130 horsepower from the combustion engine paired with a 20-horsepower electric motor, sent to the front wheels via a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The 1.3-liter plug-in hybrid (PHEV) is paired with a 6-speed automatic and a 60-horsepower electric motor on the rear axle, creating an all-wheel-drive system. The PHEV is available in two output levels: a 190-horsepower version achieving a 0-100 km/h sprint in 7.9 seconds, and a more powerful 240-horsepower variant reaching 100 km/h in 7.3 seconds.
Practicality
Designed for daily usability, the Compass features a standard five-seat configuration and offers a ground clearance of 198 mm, allowing it to navigate rougher roads and speed bumps with ease. The rear cargo area provides 424 liters of storage, accommodating luggage or shopping bags. For longer trips, the mild-hybrid model is equipped with a 55-liter fuel tank, ensuring a decent driving range between fill-ups. Inside the cabin, passengers benefit from improved storage compartments in the doors and center console, making it easy to store small items.
Safety and tech
The 2020 Compass comes equipped with driver assistance features designed to improve on-road safety. Standard and available technologies include lane keeping assist, forward collision warning, pedestrian detection, and a driver fatigue monitor. Visibility is enhanced by standard LED headlights, automatic high beams, and rain-sensing windshield wipers. For easier maneuvering in tight spaces, the SUV features rear parking sensors, a rearview camera, and a 360-degree camera system on higher trim levels, along with automated parking assist.
Buyer notes
Prospective buyers should carefully compare standard equipment between the trims. The North Star trim offers features like 18-inch wheels, a panoramic roof, dual-zone climate control, and cloth-leather seating. Moving up to the Summit trim adds larger 19-inch wheels, ventilated leather seats, a heated steering wheel, and power-adjustable front seats. It is also important to choose the right drivetrain configuration: the front-wheel-drive 1.5 MHEV is suited for efficiency, while the 1.3 PHEV provides all-wheel drive and better performance.
