2019 Jeep Compass
The Jeep Compass is a compact SUV that marries the off-road capability that has made Jeep a legendary brand across the world with the traditional comforts of a modern SUV. With the current SUV craze that's sweeping the nation, the Jeep Compass is a great choice for Decatur, AL drivers that have been thinking about stepping up from the limitations of an old sedan.
Performance
The Jeep Compass comes standard with a 2.4-liter MultiAir four-cylinder engine that produces a power output of 180 horsepower and 175 pound-feet of torque. It's mated to a six-speed manual transmission as part of the standard powertrain, but there is a nine-speed transmission that is available on 4x4 models.
Front-wheel-drive Jeep Compass models have a fuel economy of 22 mpg in the city and 31 mpg on the highway. The 4x4 models come in at a very similar 22 mpg in the city and 30 mpg on the highway. What's impressive about this is that Athens AL and Huntsville AL drivers don't lose much of anything if they want enhanced handling.
What's New in 2019?
The 2019 Jeep Compass returns much of what made it such a smart choice for 2019, but it does upgrade the technological offerings to redefine what a standard dashboard should look like. The Compass now comes standard with a seven-inch touchscreen that features Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration right off the bat.
