The Jeep Compass is an all-terrain SUV with a body of five doors and without reducing the total traction, as the Honda CR-V, Nissan X-Trail or Toyota RAV4.

As a purchase, Jeep Compass stressed because it has a low price that is not because their equipment is a low number. Its apparent quality is lower than that of most alternatives.

Jeep Compass
The Jeep Compass measures 4405 mm long, 1761 mm wide and 1631 mm high. They are a size similar to those of a Toyota RAV4. It is a car motor cross and therefore it has nothing to do with other models that Jeep has made so far, all of longitudinal engine. It is also the first Jeep with independent suspension on all four wheels. The wheels are standard 17 "and optionally any of 18."
Jeep Compass
Mechanically, the Jeep Compass has many elements in common with the Dodge Caliber and the Jeep Patriot (Jeep will begin sales of this model in September 2007).
Jeep Compass
Despite their appearance, the Jeep Compass is going better road that the Caliber, thanks to a firmer suspension and tires: curiously, in the Limited version, with less profile in the model Jeep (thought to move out of the asphalt) that in the Dodge, which makes the leadership more accurately.
Jeep Compass
In equal equipment, the diesel engine with Jeep Compass is (depending on the version) between 3300 and 4500 € more expensive than the Caliber. The Jeep Compass is developed successfully by road once the driver is tailored to address the very assisted. It is not as precise as the Toyota RAV4, for example, let’s move quickly but safely, thanks to the smooth functioning of stability control that also has a specific program to avoid overturning (element that is standard on all versions). The movements of the body did not curves linked are wider than in other terrain.
Jeep Compass
The off-road traction system automatically be connected total plays its work properly. Thus limiting the advance of Jeep Compass in the field is a suspension with very short walks, some low-profile tires designed for asphalt, the absence of a reductive and some characteristic angles (mainly the attack) unfavorable.
Jeep Compass
The Diesel is coupled solely to a manual gearbox six relationships. The engine vibrates slightly but is not properly insulated acoustically, so the noise reaches the carrier with greater intensity than in other all-terrain Diesel, as a Kia Sportage or a Honda CR-V.
Jeep Compass
The driver can intervene in the exchange through a command sequence, with which you can choose between six fixed relations. The longest of them is not as long as the final development that takes into automatic mode.
Jeep Compass
The carrier has the best aspect of the Caliber, possibly by the dark tone of the coating (in the Dodge are light gray), but still edged badly topped and adjustments produced little. There is enough space for four adults. The boot, with only 334 liters capacity until the curtain that covers it, is similar to that of a KIA Sportage but it is very small when compared to the 586 that he has a Toyota RAV4.
Jeep Compass
In the equipment there are some unusual and useful as a light for the luggage that you can get to work torch as or a vinyl floor of the trunk, easily washable.
Jeep Compass
Other items of equipment are curtain airbags, a stereo optional Boston Acoustics speakers with swivel (to ring out of the Jeep Compass when the door is open, folding rear backrest recline and 12th, a pressure monitoring system of tires or an automatic dimming inside mirror, among others.
Jeep Compass
In the style there are some features of the mark, as the seven-slot vertical grille and round headlamps, but it has an unusual shape and proportions in Jeep.
Jeep Compass
With this model, Jeep hopes to attract one type of customer who has not so far and that he did not consider buying a Jeep. This model is manufactured in Belvidere (Illinois, USA). Throughout 2007, Jeep Wrangler to launch the new version of two-door and four-door (called Unlimited).
Jeep Compass
In the Jeep Compass there is enough space for four adults traveling with sufficient comfort. Access to the Jeep Compass is not a problem because the seats are not very high from the ground or the floor of the vehicle.
Jeep Compass
The front seats are comfortable and properly collect the body. The shift lever is in a higher position than normal, thus facilitating its management. Behind two adults only be comfortable, because there is a lot of width and no room for the legs of occupying the central plaza.
Jeep Compass
The appearance of the carrier is better than the Dodge Caliber perhaps, in part, by the tone of the plastics used in the dashboard and the upper doors (dark instead of light). In general, adjustments between pieces are acceptable.
Jeep Compass
There are details of poor quality, such as plastics with edge in areas in which you have to go hand in hand, the appearance of poor rubber bellows in which the lever of change, the guides of the front seats (this is only protected by a plastic The side that is next to the door, it also stands out and is relatively easy to hook the underside of her pants), the cable seen from the interior mirror or the sound made by the Central lock inside the Jeep Compass (can not remember another that is so noisy). Those who do not give importance to such details and simply look for a car-maybe-functional and durable, be comfortable with this Jeep.
Jeep Compass
There are also good details that make life aboard more pleasant, such as mats, which are fixed to the floor with a metal hook that keeps moving. The umbrellas have a mirror with cover, but are not illuminated. They have a simple mechanism to be able to move longitudinally when placed next to the window, which prevents the sun passes between the space left by the parasol and the amount Central, a problem in many cars.
Jeep Compass
The instrument panel has the information can be found today in a car (including the engine coolant temperature), Jeep Compass, a computer (autonomy, average consumption, time), two part-meter distance, in addition to the total and an indicator tire pressure. Curiously, with the aerodynamic deflector that carries more noise than without him (at least in the front seats and speeds below 140 km / h).
Jeep Compass
The boot volume is low due to low altitude that there are from the floor until the curtain that covers luggage. The 334 liter capacity is sufficient to carry shopping bags without being from the outside, but you can not let a suitcase stand and covering the curtain. The rear side windows are obscured and the lunette (in the series are optional on Limited and Sport) which hampers the vision of luggage from the outside.
Jeep Compass
The rear backrest can be lower in two parts to increase the volume of cargo up to 1277 kg. The angle of inclination of the backups can also be adjusted in two positions.
Jeep Compass
The floor of the trunk is made from a piece of rigid plastic that can be removed for easy cleaning. Under it, there is a hole where the spare tire, which is emergency, and there is some space to store tools (such as a cable boot) or those elements which are mandatory (triangles or emergency spare light bulbs).
Jeep Compass
In general, the Jeep Compass is a comfortable car, significantly more than a Suzuki Grand Vitara, for example. The suspension leaves collect a small and constant vertical oscillation of the body if the asphalt is not perfect. To pass on any irregularity of which transmits a very quick movement to the wheel, it is somewhat dry.
Jeep Compass
The Jeep Compass is not designed for driving on asphalt outside the zones complicated, but it is very satisfactory track in good condition. What is the absorption capacity of the suspension that, as far as possible given the short tour that has allowed travel at a rapid pace without violent rebounds. In addition, the headroom to the ground is higher than it appears at first glance, 203 mm (similar to, for example, that of a Suzuki Grand Vitara).
Jeep Compass
The total traction system, through an electronically controlled multi-clutch, operates completely automatically without the driver having to act on it. There is a shooter on the console (with the legend "Lock"), to vary the response of the transmission system up to 50 km / h. This command should be used when the ground is very loose or the grip is very low, as on snow or mud. It works that way (which would have the same effect in a locked car with a central differential) up to 15 km / h, faster, the coupling is decreasing.
Jeep Compass
The second is the path of the suspension, and that very little will be left wheels in the air with ease. In these situations the proper functioning of the traction system compensates for this disadvantage. The tires, asphalt and low-profile, nor provide traction.
Jeep Compass
With the diesel engine is very difficult to move in slow zones at very low speed when the ground requires that the engine thrust force, something that can happen when climbing a ramp or an obstacle to offer much resistance to progress.
Jeep Compass
After doing so, a message appears on the computer screen with the legend "ESP OFF." This indicates that the stability control is disconnected and also the role of traction control that limits the delivery of engine power if a wheel spins. That is, the only electronic aid is hampering the wheels spinning freely (the skate), so that the force is sent to those that do have traction.
Jeep Compass
The Jeep Compass 2.0 CRD diesel engine has a 140 hp. It is an engine with a strong response after the 2,000 rpm and moves with ease this model, without the consumption is high.
Jeep Compass
Consumption in highway, to an average of over 135 km / h, is 8.0 l/100 km. A good value, considering that its aerodynamics is not very good (the Cx is 0.4, a tenth worse than the Caliber) and the developments that are short (he has a sixth of 46.5 km / h 1,000 rpm.). Only the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4 are spending less and accelerate more.
Jeep Compass
The changing gears is very handy. The marches come easily as long as no attempt is changing very fast. In this case, there is a point that offers resistance middle of the track between running and running, and that requires more strength to do what would be desirable.
Jeep Compass
The pedals are a little high and the journey, principally the clutch, is something long. Brakes, front disc and rear is stopped the Jeep Compass at a normal distance for a vehicle of this type. Its resistance to a demanding treatment is not very good, accuse the overheating.
Jeep Compass
The headlights provide improved lighting and, of those who are if you connect the long, short ones are disabled. Exterior mirrors provide good visibility and have regulatory power (but not automatic folding).
