PROS: For a four-wheel drive this vehicle performs very well in terms of fuel efficiency. The car has good security and safety features, and MP3 connectivity comes as standard with this model.
CONS: Driving experience could be better. Owners of this car will be expected to pay additional costs for metallic paint, Bluetooth, leather seating and satellite navigation.
The Jeep Compass does not excell on the road, although it does provide a comfortable and refined ride. Its engine delivers fairly good performance and can reach a top speed of 115mph, which is adequate.
Acceleration is also not too bad with the model reaching 62mph from a standstill in 10.6 seconds. However, the handling could be better and there is a fair bit of body roll to be experienced in corners. This is partly counteracted by sharp, responsive steering, but there are no doubt better 4x4s in the driving department.
The car has an average power output of 154bhp, and its torque is also quite standard at 140 lb-ft.
The Jeep Compass is an attractive vehicle and comes with a decent range of equipment, including MP3 connectivity, air conditioning, electric front windows, electric door mirrors and cruise control.
Satellite navigation is unfortunately not available with this Compass.
The interior is stylish and sophisticated, and finished with materials of a high quality. However, leather seating unfortunately is not an option.
The car is enhanced externally with alloy wheels, but to further improve the car's style owners have the choice to have it painted in metallic for an extra cost of £500.
The car's warranty is for up to three years of ownership or up to 60,000 miles.
In terms of practicality this car is ideal for families as it seats five occupants comfortably and has five-door access, which is far more convenient for all occupants in the car. Four-wheel drives often have plenty of space and this is no exception. When the rear seats are upright there is 458 litres of storage space, and when the rear seats are folded there is a more generous 1269 litres of luggage area.
The model's security has been well constructed. It is fitted with central locking and an alarm to protect against theft.
The Jeep Compass 2.0 Sport 4x2 5dr can be bought for £16,995. This is a reasonable price for a four-wheel drive although it is important to note this car does not come fitted with an array of exciting features, nor are they offered for a further price. Therefore, this is relatively basic for a four-wheel drive.
Despite the lack of exciting technology, the car's fuel efficiency is fairly impressive, achieving an average economy of 37.2mpg. CO2 emissions are not too bad for the class either at 175g/km. Overall the Compass represents great value for money considering the size and power of the vehicle and its relative efficiency.
