PROS: This car performs on exceptional fuel economy for a four-wheel drive, which will reduce refuelling significantly for drivers of this vehicle. The car's safety and security features are good, plus the car comes equipped with convenient technological components.
CONS: Owners of this vehicle will be expected to fork out additional costs for satellite navigation and metallic paint.
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 9.8 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 161bhp, and its torque is also quite standard at 236 lb-ft.
The Jeep Compass is an attractive vehicle and comes with a decent range of equipment, including Bluetooth, MP3 connectivity, climate control, electric front windows, electric door mirrors and cruise control.
Satellite navigation is not provided as standard with this vehicle but it is available for an expensive cost of £1,600.
The interior is stylish and sophisticated, and finished with materials of a high quality. Leather seating is fitted as standard to enhance the comfort of the ride.
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 2.2 CRD Limited 4x4 5dr is available brand new from £23,595. This price does include leather seating, MP3 connectivity and Bluetooth.
This car’s CO2 emissions are typical of a four-wheel drive at 172g/km, and its fuel economy is impressive, performing on average at 42.8mpg. The Compass has a lot to offer when compared with rivals, especially in terms of running costs, and as such represents great value for money.
