Performance and Capability
The new Jeep Compass is great for new drivers thanks to its manageable power delivery. The fuel-efficient powertrain also makes it an excellent option for active families. The Compass feels very agile on the roadways thanks to its flexible chassis. It also feels solidly planted while cornering at highway speeds. The Jeep Compass SUV's steering is responsive and accurate while providing good feedback as you cruise through Nags Head. Its compliant drivability also carries over to rugged surfaces thanks to its all-terrain components.
The new Compass has a Trail Rated Badge, meaning it has passed many grueling tests. Its four-wheel drive system provides plenty of traction in harsh environments like muddy terrain. This advanced system enhances traction and pulling power. Under the hood is a turbocharged engine that propels the vehicle faster, especially from a standstill. This 200-horsepower engine comes in 2.0 liters, and it goes on to produce an estimated 221 pound-feet. Reaching 60 mph in 7.5 seconds is the norm, but this small SUV has a towing capacity of 2,000 pounds.
The new Jeep Compass goes even further by delivering sufficient tire-to-ground contact on uneven surfaces near Wanchese. The Trailhawk trim is more hardcore and has a Selec-Terrain Traction Management System. This system offers many selectable drive modes.
