The Compass is the smallest SUV in Jeep's lineup, but that doesn't stop it from delivering the robust performance and versatility that Jeep is famous for. Along with its dependable and efficient powertrain, the Compass features a tough chassis and an inviting passenger cabin. Let's take a closer look at the 2025 Jeep Compass. Great Handling All Compasses are powered by a turbocharged 2.0L inline-4 engine that gives 200 horsepower and 221 lb-ft of torque, outdoing many of its rivals. An 8-speed automatic transmission distributes the motor's output to all four wheels to provide you with punchy performance and up to 27 MPG combined. Complementing the 4x4 system is Jeep's Selec-Terrain transfer case, allowing for exceptional control in tricky situations. The Compass' refined strut suspension makes it a cinch to maneuver through the turns while maintaining a stable and smooth riding experience. Excellent articulation gives the vehicle the ability to excel during off-road excursions. Well-balanced electric power steering and 4-wheel performance brakes will further boost your confidence. Extra-Rugged Trailhawk Model Geared towards especially adventurous drivers, the Compass Trailhawk is ready to take on the most challenging terrain. It exclusively comes with Rock Mode, which optimizes power delivery and shift patterns for increased traction when you encounter rocky trails. Falken all-terrain tires ensure even more grip. Durable skid plates for the front suspension, transfer case, and fuel tank provide additional protection for the underbody. Airy and Modern Interior Whether you're cruising around town or roughing it in the great outdoors, you'll have an easy time staying comfortable thanks to the Compass' spacious and well-equipped cabin. Passengers are free to stretch out with ample headroom and legroom, including 38.3 inches of rear legroom. A cargo hold measuring 27.2 cubic feet means plenty of room for your things, plus the rear seats fold down to expand that figure to 59.8 cubic feet. Buyers get the option of having the seats wrapped in premium cloth/vinyl, leatherette, or genuine leather upholstery. Available dual-zone climate control and heated seats keep the inside cozy, no matter how bad the weather gets. User-Friendly Infotainment System Take advantage of hands-free calls and integration for your iOS or Android smartphone with the help of an 8.4- or 10.1-inch Uconnect 5 infotainment touchscreen. Compass models equipped with the larger display come with wireless smartphone integration. Standard support for a mobile Wi-Fi hotspot enables internet access while you're on the move. Users can choose from a seemingly endless list of channels from SiriusXM satellite radio. You'll be hard-pressed to find another compact SUV that matches the Compass' off-roading prowess.
