2020 Jeep Compass Review

Crossovers are among the best vehicles to drive around the St. Louis, Chesterfield, and Kirkwood, Missouri, areas. They're surprisingly easy to drive yet they feature extensive interior space for cargo and passengers alike. If you're looking for a vehicle that can provide a bit of off-road adventure, the 2020 Jeep Compass may be what you're looking for. Find out in our 2020 Jeep Compass review, and feel free to read our other Jeep Compass reviews as well!

Interior

The inside of the Compass is remarkably luxurious for such a rugged vehicle. With refined fabrics and all-weather features, luxury and utility come together in one convenient package. The cargo floor is particularly impressive as it can easily adjust up and down, so you can customize how you carry your cargo. With this multilevel design and mesh side pockets, your cargo space essentially has compartments that make it easier than ever to get organized.

In terms of comfort, the Compass doesn't disappoint. With Dual-Zone Automatic Temperature Control, you and your front-seat passenger can create microclimates, so you don't have to compromise on your preferred internal temperature. Additionally, winter driving is much easier with heated front seats. Even the steering wheel is heated, so your hands won't shake on those early-morning winter commutes.

Capability

Since it's a Jeep, it should be no surprise that the Compass is more capable than the average crossover. With the Trail Rated® badge on the Trailhawk trim, it's more capable than most other vehicles in general. To earn this badge, the Compass had to pass rigorous tests regarding maneuverability, articulation, ground clearance, water fording, and traction.

Driving the Compass is easy and pleasurable. The Selec-Terrain® Traction Management System allows you to change your drivetrain on the fly among Auto, Snow, Sand and Mud settings, and Rock Mode on the Trailhawk trim. No matter which mode you're in, you'll have plenty of power at your disposal. The 2.4-liter Tigershark® engine boasts an impressive 180 horsepower and can handle a maximum towing capacity of 2,000 pounds when properly equipped.

Technology

Jeep may have a reputation for rugged capability, but the integrated technology is also advanced. For example, the infotainment system features Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, two systems that make it easy to connect your smartphone to your car and access your favorite apps on the available 8.4-inch touchscreen. You can even turn the Compass into a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot.

To take the Compass technology to the next level, Jeep integrated its systems with the Uconnect® app. With this app on your smartphone, you can adjust some of the vehicle's features remotely. That includes turning on and off the lights, locking and unlocking the doors, and even starting the engine. Additionally, this app can access your horn, which saves a lot of time when you forget where you've parked.
