If you’re searching for an off-road adventure, Compass is the answer. It is dependable, confident and rugged with the off-road capability to match.

Compass 4x4 models come standard with the Jeep Freedom Drive^™ active full-time 4WD system with selectable LOCK mode. When the system’s 4WD LOCK handle is engage, torque is sent equally to the front and rear axles for improved low-speed traction and control.

Compass also features the standard Electronic Stability Control (ESC)⁽⁴⁾ which includes All-speed Traction Control (ASTC), Electronic Roll Mitigation (ERM) and Brake Locking Differentials (BLD). These lifesaving computer-controlled systems work in seamless harmony to allow Compass’ driveline to react instantly to ever-changing conditions and help ensure that control is maintained in the most challenging circumstances.

Compass offers added Jeep vehicle capability with the 205 mm of ground clearance, 20-degree approach angle, 20-degree break over angle and 32-degree departure angle.

Jeep Compass Powertrain

The powertrain on the all-new Compass is designed to deliver world-class performance in all-weather conditions. Fuel economy and refinement, all at an affordable, value-packed price.

Compass 4x2 comes standard with the 2.0-litre engine which delivers excellent fuel economy so you can stay on your adventure longer.

All of the 2.0-litre and 2.4-litre engines feature a heavy dose of high-tech:

• Intake manifold and exhaust flow control valves
• Dual overhead camshafts
• Four valves per cylinder
• Forged crankshaft and connecting rods
• Aluminium block
• Acoustic oil pan

There are two available transmissions on Compass: five-speed manual and Constantly Variable Transmission (CVT) with AutoStick^®. AutoStick allows for either fully automatic shifting or driver-interactive manual control with six simulated stepped-gear ratios.

Five-Speed Manual

Compass’ smooth shifting five-speed manual transmission mates beautifully with the 2.0-litre and 2.4-litre engines for powerful acceleration, outstanding fuel economy, and solid overall performance.

Constantly Variable Transmission (CVT) with Auto Stick^®

The available Constantly Variable Transmission (CVT) is a great choice for those that want a more relaxed driving experience. CVT is free of the constraints of traditional fixed-ratio automatic transmissions. It can choose the best ratio for any driving condition, thereby operating at optimum efficiency and providing improved fuel economy and performance.

If you do however want to take the reigns, Auto Stick allows for either fully automatic shifting or driver-interactive manual control with six simulated stepped-gear ratios. Auto Stick allows you to maximise engine braking, control upshifts and downshifts, and add to overall driving performance.

Jeep Compass Towing

You already know that Compass allows you to conquer any terrain, but it can also tow up to 1,200 kg⁽⁵⁾ on Sport and up to 1,500 kg⁽⁵⁾ on Limited when properly equipped. And for added strength, the available one-piece Mopar^® hitch receivers have a welded assembly that can match your vehicle's towing capacity.

Jeep Compass Protection

Peace of mind takes you far. Head out with confidence, knowing that a robust set of more than 30 available safety and security features are in place, keeping watch on the trail and on the road. A Jeep^® engineered safety cage structure contains a front crumple zone specifically designed to absorb energy during a frontal impact.

Compass employs both passive and active safety and security features such as standard advanced multistage driver and front-passenger air bags⁽⁶⁾, Electronic Stability Control (ESC)⁽⁴⁾ and four-wheel anti-lock brake system (ABS) specifically designed to help keep you safe during your on and off-road adventures.

Compass’ advanced multi-stage front air bags⁽⁶⁾ help provide nearly instantaneous protection by adjusting air bag output to crash severity.

Supplemental side-curtain front and rear air bags⁽⁶⁾ offer side protection for all of the outboard occupants.

Protect your front passenger occupant even further by opting for the available supplemental front seat-mounted side air bags⁽⁶⁾.

 Active Head Restraints⁽⁷⁾

In the event of a rear-end collision, the head restraints move forward and upward to decrease the space between the head restraint and occupant’s head, thereby helping to reduce the chance of injury.

During extreme steering maneuvers the Electronic Stability Control (ESC)⁽⁴⁾ system helps maintain control by sensing when the vehicle is starting to over or under steer.

The system automatically applies individual brakes or controls the throttle to help you stay safely on course. When you don't want the extra hand, ESC⁽¹⁾ is specially tuned for performance handling so you can switch it off.

Compass’ four-wheel Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) includes Brake Assist and All-speed Traction Control (ASTC) to help you maintain vehicle control during emergency braking. ABS modulates the brakes to reduce stopping distances and improve steering control under braking. Special off-road calibration provides sustained lockup on surfaces like mud or gravel for improved braking, and aid in trail driving when in four-wheel-drive Off-Road mode.

Anticipating the need for additional traction, Compass’ Freedom Drive^™ active four-wheel drive system automatically responds to wheel slippage by transferring power equally to the front and rear wheels, improving vehicle stability.

The remote keyless entry fob controls door and tailgate locks, putting both convenience and security at your fingertips.

The Sentry Key^® engine immobiliser is a convenient feature that provides additional safety when entering the vehicle at night. It's a great feature that makes sure your vehicle never goes anywhere without your permission.
