2018 Jeep Compass has my vote!!

I am so impressed with my Jeep compass limited!! The redesigned exterior is head turning especially in laser blue, 2 toned roof with 19 inch black alum wheels. It really stands out!! The interior is also 2 toned whitch looks classy & modern. Very comfy & roomy for a compact suv. Smooth ride!! The radio speakers are loud & clear & it's a 4 cylinder whitch is fuel efficient & great for road trips! And the 4WD makes me rest assure I will have no problem driving in winter. The only con that I can say is there is lack of storage compartments inside. However that is the least of my worries. I would definately recommend this Jeep!!

2018 Jeep Compass has my vote!!

I am so impressed with my Jeep Compass Limited !! Its a 4 cylinder which is great on gas. Very smooth ride. The exterior is head turning especially in laser blue, & 19 inch black ulum wheels & 2 tone roof. It really stands out. The interior is comfy & roomy for a compact suv, and it's also 2 toned seats which looks very modern. The only downside is there is not really any storage compartments. But that is the least of my worries! The radio speakers are loud & clear, great for road trips!! I also feel rest assured that the 4WD will get me through plenty of winters. I would definately reccomend!!

Excellent exterior styling

Compact, economical, capable handling under all driving conditions and most impressive is its exterior styling. Purchased vehicle with the options I wanted. All the safety features like Advanced Safety and Lighting Group and Safety and Security Group options lower my annual car insurance by $176.00.

Stylish body style, great utility

I was in the market for AWD or 4x4 smaller vehicle for work driving, transporting 2 dogs regularly and I wanted some trail or off road cred. Looked at Subaru, Honda, Toyota options but fell in love with new Compass. Have not gone off road yet, but great performance in snow.

New and Improved

The outgoing Compass suffered from Identity Amnesia.It could not remember it was a Jeep,and let's face it.If you buy a two wheel drive Jeep ANYTHING,you probably meant to be on the next lot over looking at something else.The new Compass is incredibly different,in a lot of ways you demand,but with an anemic single engine choice cranking out a little over 180 hp and only 175 lb.ft. torque.It's new sheetmetal NOW looks more like the Grand Cherokee,and more fitting of a Jeep. On the UPLEVEL TRIMMED TRAILHAWK tho,the small tires and VERY BASIC,BORING LOOKING WHEELS are not sufficient for A TRAILHAWK version with an OFF ROAD intention/purpose.They are actually laughable. This car only makes smarter sense in lesser trim with the 4wd,to keep costs down, and retain the 30 mpg highway figure. I myself am not going to pay 28 to 30 grand for a jeep that doesn't even have 200 hp. I will DEFINITELY wait for the front and rear fascia revised,2019 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk with the new 270 hp 4 cylinder with 295 lb. ft. torque engine that will be an option in the new Wrangler...and then,it's worth $30,000.

Love this vehicle!!

I?ve owned the 2018 Jeep Compass Limited about a month now.....and I absolutely LOVE IT!! It?s considered a compact SUV but it?s perfect for my needs. The heated seats and steering wheel are greatly appreciated this winter. Still getting used to everything the navigation U-connect system has to offer. The ride is smooth and quiet-the two toned paint is striking-gas is average, but I don?t drive far so not so much a concern.

my first Jeep

I love the way it talks to me, and how the engine turns off when i stop, so i can save gas. My favorite is the new car smell. it never gets old.

Fun to drive Compass!

I have had this vehicle now for 3 weeks and have enjoyed each time I've stepped into the vehicle. It is a fun car to drive and the 4 wheel drive is a great added peace of mind. I love the heated steering wheel and the uconnect system is amazing. The only downfall is lack of storage compartments for the driver and front passenger.

New car

We needed a smaller suv, this fits the bill! Easy to drive, easy to get in and out of, looks great, and being a small height person, it fits me!
