Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

The 2021 Jeep Compass's #15 ranking is based on its score within the Compact SUVs category. Currently the Jeep Compass has a score of 7.2 out of 10, which is based on our evaluation of 34 pieces of research and data elements using various sources.

Pros
Excellent off-roader
Adult-friendly seats
User-friendly infotainment features

Cons
Weak engine and so-so handling
Limited standard safety tech and low safety score
Below-average cargo room

By:

The Compass enters 2021 with minor changes. There's a new 80th Anniversary Edition that's based on the Latitude trim level and features Granite Crystal 19-inch wheels, leather seats with contrast stitching, a power-adjustable driver's seat, remote start, an 8.4-inch touchscreen, a 115-volt power outlet, and more. Other flourishes include trim-specific badging, an oak medallion key fob, and piano-black and gunmetal interior accents. The Limited and Trailhawk trims both add more standard active safety features, such as adaptive cruise control and lane-keeping assist..

Pros
Can actually handle some off-road obstacles,
no shortage of popular technology,
one of the prettier Jeep designs.

Cons
Inferior interior materials,
powertrain has apathetic responses,
the Cherokee offers more capability.
