2017 All New Jeep Compass Review

This year’s 2017 Jeep Compass has received a full redesign since its previous version, making it much more modern and improved for your drives around New Holland, Lancaster, and Reading. If you’re looking to upgrade your ride to a capable and versatile compact SUV, the Jeep Compass could be a great choice. This 2017 all new Jeep Compass review from the team at New Holland Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram will help you to get a better idea of what you’ll find under the hood, and in the cabin, of the SUV.

Jeep Compass Performance

The 2017 Compass comes standard with a 2.4L 4-cylinder engine and a 6-speed manual transmission. A 6-speed automatic and 9-speed automatic are also available, and you can add an engine start-stop system to improve fuel economy. The vehicle also achieves an EPA-estimated 23 city/32 highway MPG.

Front-wheel drive is standard on the all new Compass, but you can improve handling and control by opting for 4-wheel drive, which is especially helpful for driving over snow and ice, or off-roading. Models with 4-wheel drive come with Jeep’s Selec-Terrain Traction Control system, which allows you to choose your driving mode: Auto, Snow, Sport, or Sand/Mud. The vehicle is available in four different trim levels, the Sport, Latitude, Limited, and Trailhawk, so you can choose the option that has the features you need most.

Interior Features

The 2017 Jeep Compass seats five on standard cloth upholstery and offers 60/40 split rear seats, and a flat-folding front seat, so you’ll have versatile space for toting your cargo. With all five seats in use, you’ll have 22.7 cubic feet of cargo space. When you fold the rear seats down, you’ll be able to access a total of 62.7 cubic feet of cargo capacity.

For extra luxury, you can add options such as heated front seats, leather upholstery, a heated steering wheel, and an 8-way power adjustable driver’s seat. In the front seats, headroom measures 40.7 inches, and legroom is 40.6 inches. Backseat passengers will have 39.9 inches of headroom and 39.4 inches of legroom to stretch out in on a long road trip.

Compass Technology

The 2017 Compass comes standard with a 5-inch touchscreen Uconnect infotainment system. You’ll also get a standard 3.5-inch driver information display, as well as a rearview camera. Hands-free calling and texting are standard, and you can access your contacts and music with Bluetooth® connectivity. Push-button start and remote keyless entry add convenience to your drives.
