About the 2025 Jeep Compass

2nd generation (2017-present), late-cycle year after the 2023 powertrain update.

Jeep positions the Compass as a compact SUV that mixes everyday size with real Jeep character. Its main pitch is stronger standard capability than many small rivals: every 2025 Compass gets a turbo engine and 4x4, while Trailhawk adds true trail hardware. At the same time, Jeep leans on a modern cabin, strong safety coverage, and a more upscale look than many entry compact SUVs. For most shoppers, the Compass is the small Jeep for daily driving first and weekend exploring second.

Sport anchors the lineup with a 200-hp turbo engine, standard four-wheel drive, and an 8.4-inch touchscreen. Latitude is the comfort-focused everyday trim, while Limited adds a 10.1-inch touchscreen, synthetic leather-trimmed seats, and a power driver’s seat. Trailhawk is the off-road specialist, with low-range four-wheel drive, Rock mode, skid plates, and hill descent control.
