After a long test drive, does the Jeep Compass point us in the right direction?
Base by name, but not by nature. The Compass Night Eagle has some solid inclusion of tech.
Whereas the off-road ability sets it apart from the rest of the field, is the Compass Trailhawk pointing in the right direction for Australian buyers?
This small SUV packs a solid punch as a small family SUV.
It’s time to draw curtains on our time with the Jeep Compass, as our long-term loan concludes. And it’s been an overall positive experience with Jeep’s small SUV, in its cheapest Night Eagle guise.
We take the Jeep Compass long-termer down to the NSW south coast for a road trip with a difference.
We welcome the Night Eagle to the CarAdvice office with some impressive standard inclusions, but you won't see it off-road.

Among the never-ending stream of new and updated mid-sized SUVs, two of the latest face off.
You could say Jeep needs a new Compass. The US 4x4 brand has lost its way in recent years, haemorrhaging sales locally for three successive years. It hasn’t helped that its Cherokee model that launched in 2013 has struggled to fire in the all-important medium-SUV segment...
UPDATE, 8 April 2021, 10:15am: Jeep Australia has confirmed the updated Compass will arrive locally in the third quarter of 2021 (July to September inclusive). Our original story continues below. 8 April 2021: The 2021 Jeep Compass facelift has been unveiled for Europe...
The 2022 Jeep Compass has been officially unveiled at the Guangzhou motor show, just weeks after the facelifted crossover was leaked online. The exterior updates are subtle, with the standard Compass getting a revised front end with a new grille, lower air intake, and restyled fog lights...
The first images of the facelifted 2021 Jeep Compass have leaked out of China. At the front, the updated SUV features slimmer headlights and a new grille, complemented by smaller fog lights and a wider black fascia. No obvious changes have been made to the Compass's rear end...
It’s been barely a week since Jeep unveiled a 6.4-litre V8-powered Gladiator concept, but in an effort to balance the karmic ledger, the brand has this week revealed a much greener plug-in hybrid version of the Compass small SUV. The new Compass 4xe as it will be known, and the smaller-still Renegade 4xe will be offered in EMEA regions (covering Europe, the Middle East and Africa) and form part of what Jeep is calling its “green evolution”...
I bought this car because I always wanted to own and drive a Jeep, and the diesel Compass ticked every box on paper. In driving and ownership for nine months, though, it's been a bit of a mixed bag. Performance is what you would expect from a diesel: a bit slow to get up to speed, but holds that speed at low RPM, which makes it very economical on the highway (consumption goes below 5L/100km)...
I've owned my Jeep Compass North CVT 2013 MY14 from new since purchasing it in Cairns (not many Jeeps there by the way, not like here in Brisbane). We drove the Jeep all the way home too. Two drivers, short stops, and it never let us down. The cruise control and CVT helped a lot...

Echo was a complete write off mine looked ok.Repairer was shocked it was considered a write off...
I have recently purchased a Jeep Compass limited brand new and could not be happier about my purchase, I compared it to many other vehicles in the same class, and many could not come close to the value for money, looks and features that the Compass offered. Being my first venture into an American built car, I am quite impressed...
