Our opinion of the Jeep Compass is that it has positive dimensions for the off-road and is undoubtedly one of the most interesting cars in this field: it has a distance to the ground of 22.9 cm and mixed tires.You can have protection plates and its 4x4 Low mode resembles a lot to the operation of a traditional reducer to survive in more complicated situations.Ah!And it also has a differential block to get four wheels..All arsenal off-road!To complete impressions, here are our Jeep Compass test.
Thanks to the selection command, different driving modes can be selected outside the asphalt to achieve maximum traction: snow snow mode or mud mode for complex situations outside the asphalt on earth.Obviously, on the asphalt the Jeep Compass is not the best, but it will defend and allow families to make the quietest trips without problem.
The second important pillar of this car is the image.With a Jeep Grand Cherokee some somewhat outdated, a Jeep Cherokee too daring and a Jeep Renegade also with a very particular style, halfway between a compact, a minivan and a SUV, it is clear that the Jeep Compass is the most attractive model of therange (with permission from the king, the story of Jeep Wrangler is too glorious to overcome him).
And here you have my opinion about the Jeep Compass.I like its proportion in the lateral view, with a remarkable height to the ground that make it an SUV without any doubt.I like its frontal, aggressive and imposing, with the classic Jeep grill evolved towards a very successful minimalism.The rear pilots are also very cool: all completed by very cool tires and the possibility of having a bitono body, with the roof in contrast.
I have no doubt by saying that the least achieved is the interior: for tastes colors!I don't convince me personally: that screen so square, plastics of doubtful quality and a too American design.I think it is far behind some rivals such as Peugeot 3008 or the Seat Ateca, also even of the occasional Korean model.It is a conservative interior that does not risk the least: seen so, better than not a carafal failure that will throw through land all the work done in the rest of the vehicle.

Well, beyond a general interior quality that can be something behind some of its rivals, the Jeep Compass also stands out for asphalt behavior something worse than that of other SUVs: if you are one of those who want a SUV to not leaveI would never tell you about the asphalt, do not buy you a SUV and buy a compact or a sedan.But if the image weighs too much on your head and you want a SUV at all costs, there are other better SUVs inside the asphalt.
Jeep Compass prices are also somewhat for the high line, especially taking into account its size: 32.200 euros for the cheapest version with whole -wheel drive, riding the 140 hp diesel that is presented as the most sensible option in the range.It is not a crazy price but perhaps there is something above other similar models: for example, a SEAT Ateca is about 2.000 euros cheaper with whole -wheel drive and 10 hp more.A larger and more serious forest subaru, part in the 28.500 euros with gasoline engine and in 31.500 with diesel engine, both cases with automatic box.
Perhaps the subaru is more interesting in a general calculation, but I also believe that its image is somewhat less powerful.What seems clear is that if you are looking for a SUV with a good off-road aptitude, an SUV mixing the best of robust SUVs of yesteryear and the image of a modern SUV, the Jeep Compass is an option to consider very seriously.Among Americans and Italians have created a very interesting product.Well done!We hope our opinion of Jeep Compass has helped you.
