About the Jeep Compass
Vehicle Summary
The Jeep brand has been long known for its rugged SUVs, and the Jeep Compass is no exception. While it may be smaller than many of Jeep's other vehicles (being categorized specifically as a crossover SUV), it packs a lot of punch.
Unless otherwise noted, information relating to these featured vehicles comes from third-party sources, including manufacturer information. Product and company names may be trademarks™ or registered® trademarks of third-party entities. Use of them does not imply any affiliation with or endorsement by these entities.
2013 - Present Jeep Compass Trim Configurations
When the Jeep Compass was initially released, it lacked the "trail rated" designation that most Jeeps are known for. By the 2013 model year, however, it was given this distinction, much to the delight of consumers. Throughout the remainder of the first generation of production for the Jeep Compass, there were some changes and upgrades.
The 2014 Jeep Compass received a standard touchscreen interface and rearview camera for the first time, as well as a new optional automatic transmission in place of its existing CVT(continuously variable transmission). The 2015 Jeep Compass gained a new navigation system and more trims with all-wheel drive.
For the 2016 Jeep Compass, new standard features grew to include Bluetooth® connectivity and satellite radio.
Jeep Compass towing capacity has remained at an estimated 1,000 pounds from the 2013 through 2018 model years.1 But when it comes to Jeep Compass gas mileage, there have been some changes. For comparison, the 2013 Compass Sport trim with 2.0-liter engine and automatic transmission gets an estimated 24 mpg combined (22 city and 27 highway) compared to the estimated 25 mpg combined(23 city and 30 highway) on the 2016 Compass Sport trim with 2.0-liter engine and automatic transmission.2
2013-2016 Trims:
- Sport - 17-inch alloy wheels, power accessories, AUX input, cruise control, and Jeep Compass roof rails
- Latitude - heated front seats, reclining rear seat, leather-wrapped steering wheel, and fold-flat passenger seat
- Limited - more powerful 2.4-liter engine, larger 18-inch wheels, satellite radio, and leather upholstery
The Jeep Compass is completely redesigned for the 2017 model year and enters a new generation. 2017 sees the addition of the Trailhawk trim, as well as a new suspension and powertrain.
There are two different versions of the Jeep Compass available for the 2017 model year. That's because Jeep began the model year with an unchanged design from 2016; it was only part-way through the model year that they decided to release the re-designed version, which can be confusing to some buyers. So, if you're shopping for a 2017 Compass, be sure to find out whether you're looking at a redesigned version or not. Between the 2017 and 2018 model years, however, there aren't any changes at all.
2017-2018 Trims:
- Sport - 16-inch wheels, Bluetooth connectivity, six-speaker sound system, five-inch touchscreen display
- Latitude - simulated leather upholstery, leather-wrapped steering wheel, additional available packages, front- or all-wheel drive
- Limited - larger 8.5-inch touchscreen display, automatic climate control, power driver seat, smartphone integration, all-wheel drive
- Trailhawk - 17-inch wheels with off-road tires, raised suspension, Selec-Terrain® system
1Various factors may impact towing capacity, including weight of passengers, cargo, and options/accessories.
2Fuel economy figures are based on EPA estimates when vehicles sold as new. Fuel economy may vary for reasons like driving conditions and vehicle history. Unless specified, figures are for vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission. See fueleconomy.gov for details.

Reviews for Jeep Compass
I love my car besides the problems
This car has to many problems and I just purchased my vehicle.
Pros
- Fuel Economy: Great gas mileage
- Value: It was a good price
- Cargo Space: Enough space in the back
Cons
- Ride and Handling: Car shakes, noises under hood at times, gives me problems
- Reliability: Has been in the shop 3 times since I purchased and that was just a few months ago
- Power: The ignition sometimes gives me a problem when trying to power off
It’s Not What I Expected
I like the Jeep brand A LOT. Love the gas mileage it offers. Cons- it’s space is tight, not good for a car seat in any spot, it’s weak on ice and snow, it’s hard to keep clean.
Pros
- Fuel Economy: 28/32
- Technology and Entertainment: CarPlay is nice but doesn’t connect work 100% of the time
- Braking: The thing is TOUCHY
Cons
- Interior Space: So freaking small. Do not get if you have children in car seats.
- Weather Versatility: Very weak on ice and snow
- Seat Comfort: I’m 5”6’ and feel HUGE in the drivers seat.
Don't Recommend for Highway / Mtn Driving
It has no power. Going up hill on the way takes everything for the car to get going and burns gas so quickly in order to it. And with a super small tank, that is a huge downside as I'm constantly getting gas.
Pros
- Interior Space: Beautiful car with leather seats and pretty dash.
- Styling: I love the way it looks on the outside.
- Technology and Entertainment: I love the features. Heated seats, sun roof, etc.
Cons
- Power: Zero power.
- Fuel Economy: Fuel economy is okay but the tank is just too small.
