Jeep Compass – Review, Specs, Pricing, Features, Videos and More

We can’t accuse Jeep of not listening.

Almost exactly a year ago, the AutoGuide crew was putting a record 11 small SUVs through the ringer. We spent a week testing them all, living with them all, and naturally, ranking them all. While we only showcase the podium finishers, it’s safe to say the Jeep Compass did not challenge the front-runners. “The worst engine in the group” is an exact quote, from yours truly. Sorry, not sorry.

For 2023, Jeep has flushed the 2.4-liter “Tiger Shark” down the toilet. Stepping in is the brand’s 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder, which boasts a useful increase in power—200 horsepower and 221 pound-feet—and at a more usable range, too. Has this heart transplant given the small SUV a new lease on life? I spent a week finding out.

Recently, we held a massive 2022 AutoGuide Compact SUV Comparison test presented by NRS Brakes. We’re now going to take a closer look at one of the more specialized entries in that massive match-up, with our 2022 Jeep Compass Trailhawk review.

Jeep’s Compass is a lesson in peaks and valleys. With a significant facelift for the 2022 model year, the American brand’s second-smallest offering is all over the map. The Trailhawk is the most capable (and most expensive) offering in the family, one that’s capable of pleasing and frustrating in equal measure.

Let’s start with the positives. Stellantis models have consistently had some of the best infotainment systems out there, and Uconnect 5 is even better. The 2022 facelift focused on the interior experience, and the new interface is a definite win. With a large, crystal-clear display, the system is as pretty to look at as it is easy to use. This latest software also includes wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Not only that, Uconnect 5 allows for multiple user profiles, allowing families to save their climate, seat, and media favorites. Speaking of the latter, the Compass’ audio system is seriously powerful.

Welcome to the single most important comparison we will have all year. The AutoGuide 2022 Best Small SUV Comparison sponsored by NRS Brakes.

The average family car these days isn’t even a car at all anymore. Compact SUVs are the sweet spot these days, selling thousands of examples every single day in Canada and the United States. So we’ve assembled 11 of them, from all corners of the market, to figure out which one is best. Yes, eleven. Go big or go home, they say. It’s time for AutoGuide 2022 Best Small SUV Comparison.

This group covers all the big hitters, including the segment-leading Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V. Mazda sent us two SUVs, in the shapes of the subtly different CX-5 and CX-50. More rugged options like the Ford Bronco Sport and Jeep Compass are here, too. Amongst the pack are of course a few hybrids as well. If you’re shopping this part of the market, at least a few of these SUVs will be on your short list.

It seems like every day, the compact crossover segment grows just a bit more crowded and contested, with brand new contenders appearing all the time.

Recently, Toyota doubled up on its compact utility vehicle offerings with the introduction of the Corolla Cross – a relatively inexpensive small crossover that slots in beneath the RAV4, offering shoppers a more budget-friendly but still well-equipped option.

The size and starting price of the Corolla Cross make it a palatable alternative to the likes of more established compact CUVs – like the Jeep Compass, for instance. The Compass was itself just refreshed for the 2022 model year, with a revamped interior, new standard technologies, and a retooled trim lineup. So how do the two compare? Let’s find out in a battle of the Toyota Corolla Cross vs Jeep Compass
