Jeep re-designed and debuted a new Compass midway through the 2017 model year, and that vehicle returns with almost no changes for 2018. The expanded Compass lineup now ranges from the rugged, off-road-ready Trailhawk to the plush and well-mannered Limited. Falling size-wise between the typical subcompact and compact crossover, the new Compass combines the city-friendly size and wallet-friendly price of a subcompact with the cabin and cargo room of a compact and, at least in Trailhawk form, the ability to handle much tougher roads and terrain than competitors.

All Compasses use a 2.4-liter inline 4-cylinder that makes 180 hp and 175 lb-ft of torque, but it’s available with front- or 4-wheel drive, and the lineup includes 3 transmissions, a 6-speed manual, a 6-speed automatic, and a 9-speed automatic featured in all 4WD versions. The cabin is comfortable and roomy, and FCA’s Uconnect infotainment system consistently gets strong reviews and supports both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

With so many competing small SUVs, the 2018 Jeep Compass stands out by offering plenty of versatility and the ability to venture where few other compact crossovers dare.

The Jeep Compass is technically listed as a compact SUV, but it costs less than any other vehicle in the segment. In fact, in terms of pricing and other statistics, the Compass is actually positioned between compact SUVs and subcompact SUVs—two red-hot vehicle segments with plenty of stiff competition. So what does the Compass offer that helps it stand out amongst all these vehicles?

The 2018 model year marks the sophomore year of the second generation of the Jeep Compass. It replaces an outgoing vehicle that more or less limped on for a decade. The first-generation Compass was born out of dismal years at Chrysler. In fact, that original Compass was actually based on the Dodge Caliber chassis—and represents a time both Jeep and Dodge would probably like everyone to forget.
