"The Jeep Compass is a tough and well-equipped rival the Nissan Qashqai, but a poor safety rating and cramped rear seats they mean fighting against the competition. "
the Jeep Compass was an important car for the iconic American brand. When the first Jeep stand with two-wheel drive is available, the Compass was directed to the popular Nissan Qashqai and Ford Kuga. Chunky looking SUVs that spend most of their time on the road, instead has away from him
, the compass, as a far more attractive car that has been replaced by the Jeep Renegade, - while not perfect - some of the most remarkable compromises "Compass addresses. chief among these a poor two-star had (five) safety rating from Euro NCAP, a cheap feeling interior, limited rear legroom and a noisy driving experience.
Apart from these questions, the compass was a reasonably competent car driving experience -. although noisy - was quite pleasant, while (if you went for a four-wheel-drive model) it was in a better position off the road as the Nissan Qashqai and Volkswagen Tiguan . you may choose from two petrol engines and one 2.2-liter diesel, with its better fuel our choice to be the latter through.
If you are like the compass on the market for an SUV, you can find out what we think is the best SUV through our video can be observed below.

MPG, Rates & CO2 runs

, the diesel engine offers reasonable economy, but it is still off the pace compared to rivals
of "Compass 2.2-liter diesel engine is the most efficient in the region, returning 46.3mpg and emits 161g / km of CO2, which in the road tax of £ 185 per year While these are means by no means stellar numbers, they are better than the other engines can offer;. the 2.0-liter gasoline returns 37.2mpg and 175g / km of CO2 emitted (road tax £ 210 per year to make), while the top model 2.4-liter petrol was still thirsty, hardly manage 30mpg. The petrol engines have also more often than the diesel service with which your operating costs. Factor in the Compass' relatively poor second-hand value, and you have to run with a car to the left, which is significantly more expensive than its competitors
Fortunately, the compass. "Spare - the Jeep Renegade - is much more efficient, 64.3mpg returns, when equipped with the 1.6-liter diesel engine In fact, even the thirstiest wheel drive Renegade is hardly less efficient than the most economical Compass
[1945060th] note that your engine choice affects the wheels of the car is driven. the 2.0-liter petrol engine only two-wheel drive, which is 2.4 liter petrol four-wheel drive, while diesel customers either two or have four-wheel drive. -
motors, drive & performance

, the compass is quite fast and a very capable off-roader, but it is noisy
If you are a very capable SUV on the market, the Compass worth taking a look; its high ground clearance, capable ANDEXCELLENT engines with four-wheel drive - to name not Jeep off-road expertise - it means in this area is characterized. As a street car, but the Compass is something missing. It may not have as much lean in the corners, as you would expect, but the vague steering detracts significantly from the overall driving experience
The transmission disappoint: There are two manuals as standard - with either five or six gears. - And they are both to use bulky. You may want to consider an automatic, but this is only the top-of-the-range 2.4-liter petrol model is available, it is to make an expensive affair.
The performance is more decent, even take the entry level 2.0-liter petrol engine the compass of 0-62mph in 10.6 seconds; the 2.2-liter diesel is slightly faster below 9.8 seconds to do the same, when equipped with all-wheel drive. The 2.4-liter petrol engine of 0-62mph time of 10.5 seconds means performance is not great, the performance on offer under consideration.

Interior & Comfort

The compass feels noisy and outdated
If you can get a bit of a shock to have received in a compass in a Nissan Qashqai or Tiguan been recently. We can forgive the compass for his low-rent dashboard design and scratchy plastic (it was cheaper than many of its main competitors, after all), but is to overlook it in motion, the sound of heavy.
Whether for gasoline or diesel, the Compass engines are noisy, especially when accelerating. This, coupled with a strong wind and road noise at highway speed means driving a compass is anything but relaxing. Rear seat passengers crowded conditions in addition to those complaints have as the compass rear legroom and a poor seating position is limited.

practicality & trunk

of compass has a big boat, but limited in many other aspects
to give it a reason to compass' 458-liter boot (rising with his back to 1269 liters seats folded) is greater than the Nissan Qashqai, while the wide opening means loading bulky items easy.
inside things head downhill somewhat. We have already mentioned, the limited rear legroom, but it is worth noting how little space there for the rear passengers feet and that it is a very pronounced hump in the middle of the floor. This means that it is not really to put their feet everywhere for the middle seat passenger, as well as for long trips you are the compass as a four-seater best thinking. The rear door bins are similarly narrow and may not even have a decent size bottle of water.
In front of the compass' high ride height means forward visibility is excellent, although the view from the back is easily affected. By the large rear pillars It is also difficult to find the right driving position as the steering wheel adjusts up and down, but not in and out.

reliability and safety
-
Rugged from 32 manufacturers in our 2016 driver Power survey but provides a poor safety rating
Jeep reputation has improved somewhat in recent times, and his 11th place confirms this. Reliability is less impressive, albeit with a 31st place result in this area. Nevertheless, the Compass feels well built and it has been reported no major problems.
security more of a concern, since only the Compass scored in its Euro NCAP crash tests, two of a possible five stars. Its 76% child occupant rating is reasonable, but a middling 61% adult occupant and poor 23% pedestrian safety scores may give pause to some. You do get six airbags, (mandatory) electronic stability control and a clever rollover protection system.

price, price-performance ratio and options
-
a low list price and a high level of standard equipment complaint but residual values can not
Although it is no longer for sale, price relatively low output "of the compass ( it was a Nissan Qashqai £ 1,500 cheaper than) and generous kit list an attractive prospect at first glance from - although jeeps to have the strongest second-hand values, do not tend to, so it was not not quite the trade it first published.
entry-level Sport trim includes all-round electric windows, air conditioning, fog lights, alloy wheels and iPod docking stations. Sport + cars have additional airbags, Bluetooth connectivity and updated air conditioning, while top-spec Limited and 70th Anniversary models have heated leather seats, larger alloy wheels and all-wheel drive as standard.
