The 2024 Jeep Compass Is An Expensive Mini-Grand Cherokee, But Is It Worth It? | Review
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 окт 2023
- With an MSRP that sails right past the competition to over $50,0000 (in the Trailhawk trim), the question must be asked: is the Jeep Compass the scale model Grand Cherokee of your dreams, or is it just too expensive to consider in the small SUV segment that includes strong values like the Crosstrek and HR-V and reliable efficient models like the Corolla Cross Hybrid?

No complaints about my Compass!!
who the heck is paying $50,000 for a Compass????
Probably the same family who pays 300,000 for a Porsche 911. They need a winter car.
No one
@@williamconrad1087Only time 911 owner enters a jeep dealership is when he needs a wrangler for her daughter's college adventures, for winters he buying a range rover.
The same people who are paying 50-60-70k for a Toyota rav4 sienna etc
@@naveenthemachinewhere did you see a RAV4 at 60k the top trim Plug-in hybrid caps out with every option at 50k. Plus the RAV4 is bigger than the Compass. And even a Sienna doesn’t cost 60k or 70k
I have no.problems out of my Jeep and a great discount! There are a lot of haters who never owed a Jeep making negative comments....
Exactly -there seem to be 2 types of opinions on the Compass.
1. I would never in a million years buy one because they’re overpriced trash.
2. I own one and I love it.
I picked up a ‘24 Trailhawk, dripped out (Elite and Sun/Sound) and it checked all the blocks for what I needed/wanted. Realizing that a turbo requires regular oil changes and you don’t wanna drive this like a wrangler or a hellcat, the Compass is a very reasonable and well liked option for those who understand things cost more in 2024 than they did back in ‘83.
I owned one and il never buy one again like ever
I rented one from Alamo for 7 days vacation in Houston. It was on the low 4x4 SUV segment and I won’t buy it for every day driving. $$$ too for a small SUV but good ground clearance for any road surface.
Alex, If my compass ever pointed to this grossly overpriced CUV, I would replace it immediately. 😉🤣 The fact Jeep has VACATED the heart of the CUV market with the discontinuation of the Cherokee ought to serve as food for thought for prospective buyers. 🤔
You mean the Grand Cherokee has no plain Cherokee to be grander than??
@@sprague49 Don't be too surprised if the Compass is relaunched as the Not So Grand Cherokee.

I enjoy all your reviews but especially appreciate your always well reasoned, practical "if my money were on the line..." wind up. Thanks.
As Kia fan / Subaru fan I have never considered a Jeep vehicle due their long standing reputation of expensive to buy, operate, and maintain. That said and to be fair, it isn't all doom and gloom for Jeep owners as two family members had 2002 Jeep Libertys that both were trouble free for over 100,000 miles!
If every vehicle Jeep made was truly as terrible as people like to say than Jeep wouldn't still be in business.....probably. -Travis
One of my Good friend who travels for a living to all corners of the country. He is 6’3” tall and almost 300lbs. After 2 weeks of ownership he gave me a ride somewhere and he wished he never bought the compass. He said he was thinking only about the discount they were offering at the time and not about the suv itself. He is way to big to be comfortable he looks show horned in the driver seat. He traded a Kia Sorrento and put 100’s of thousands of miles on it after 4 years and it looked like new still. This compass is all scratched and marred up inside with the black everywhere. He admitted to me he made a big mistake. And he’s had many issues.
Seems more like a stupidity issue than a compass issue .
Thanks for sharing. -Travis
Issues I have to agree makes me regret this Jeep I bought 6 months ago, first thing is the auto braking and Adaptive cruise will shut off if it's raining or misty out, and I kid you not if you are passing under a overpass and NOBODY is around you is screams BRAKE for a second and then back to normal. I am not happy with these sensor issues and I believe I should have bought the Tesla model 3! Did I mention that the 2.0L Turbo sounds like a diesel engine? The positives are great gas mileage( I have seen 37-40 mpg) and the ride is good and it handles itself when the road gets bumpy, the Infotainment center is awesome but beyond that not enough room in the back compared the Cherokee I traded in.
Really would like Jeep to make a hybrid version of this for those who aren't interesting in the Hornet's looks, something to compete with the Rav4 and Escape hybrid. Already decided when I go to buy a new vehicle in 2024 Spring, it's going to be hybrid (maybe plug-in) and AWD, so whichever brand that does it best, gets the money I guess. Always feels like the Dodge brand has fun and performance covered but innovative tech, value pricing and efficiency not so much.
The ONLY, absolutely ONLY, reason to consider this model is if it is offered ~$10k below MSRP. Yes, $10k. Dealers have tons of them on lots, they don't sell for obvious reasons, so some dealers actually have to offer over $10k discounts to get rid of them. Compass' MSRP just ridiculous, anyone who gets a Compass with a smaller discount makes a mistake.
This is the best vehicle in it's class and it actually competes not with shitty corolla, seltos and other CVT gutless junk - Compass has the best engine (2.0L turbo with way more power), best interior, best 4x4 system - there is nobody in this comparison even close to Compass capabilities, next - interiuor is absolutely on different level - Subaru/Toyota/Honda has absolute just materials and design, Transmission - Compass is equipped with 8-speed TYransmission instead of CVT... so that should tell to someone who looks into spect to compare this to Vehicles from higher segments - like BMW, AUDI, MB, Range Rover - not to cheap CVT 100 hp CUVs )))))

Just got a Mazda CX50 Turbo for $40k. I wouldn’t spend $50k on a Compass
I just picked up a 2024 Compass Latitude for $34k. That price was after dealer add ons. Came with Sun and Sound package and I love it! I got lucky and found a dealership who seemed to offer more discounts than anyone else.
Thanks for the review, Alex. Give us something to consider. Dunno if others are experiencing this but while Stellantis Jeeps are getting discounted, their MSRP pricing starts high to me. I do not know what's worse, getting a car with mark-ups or getting a car with discounts but with prices that were so high to begin with, even after the discount, you feel you did not get a discount!
Bingo!!
It's certainly a different sales model. -Travis
Just bought a 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee $13k in incentives and discounts… and $33.5k out the door. Drives well and the interior and brakes are solid improvements
yeah, rite.
It's a shame that Europe gets the Compass and Renegade in 4XE plug in, but we do not. I am wondering if this new 2.0 turbo is a detuned version of the Hurricane engine in the Hornet and Tonale? Looks the same in pictures. Reliability is always the question with these. I'd punt it after the warranty is up.
I paid only 30k for a completely optioned up 2021 80th anniversary Compass with all the toys. In Feb of 2021, it's MSRP was less that all of those competitors he mentioned.
I'm shocked at the price increase. That said, I am VERY happy with my Compass nearly 3 years in. Absolutely no problems.
Glad to hear you're enjoying your Compass! -Travis

@@AAutoBuyersGuideThe review on this channel was what sent me to go look at the Jeep!
@@BlackJeepConvertible Man, that's crazy. But then prices almost never go down over the years. Always up!
That price rise takes away the
"bang for the buck" advantage that my Compass had over the Escape, Trailbazer and Tuscon back in '21.
@@charlesm7589 I've seen them listed for almost 10K under MSRP, I think that's the price you should aim for
I like these and been in a few but i am not a fan of the price in the upper end models. Even thought discounts out there it get price for the size. I like it in general tho.
Jeep’s quality/reliability has always been the issue……..only by discounting their products can they stay relevant.
It seems to have been the strategy for awhile but it's working for them. -Travis
What'd most reliable and durable?
If you want to offroad, the Crosstrek makes a lot more sense. 35k, durable, reliable, cheap to fix and easy to work on, and is amazing offroad. If you're never going offroad, the Toyota is hard to beat. 50mpg when gas is 6+ is going to save you a fortune.
I wouldn’t dream of taking a Subaru off road even VS a RENEGADE. Alex has reported body twist / flex on the Subaru. Not keen for off road. It’a a tin can.
Also there’s no proof the Jeep isn’t reliable or cheap to fix when looking at forums.
We took the Subaru Crosstrek Wilderness off road just a few weeks ago, but if you're comparing the two it really depends on what kind of off road driving you're referring to. -Travis
No question, just get the Kona with the 1.6T and new 8-speed. It has the same type of AWD lock feature and has way more standard feature content.
That's a crapper also...
@@imdone1965 not with the 8 speed
@@JamesRussoMillas garbage
I like the look of the Compass. And I think they have addressed the complaints people had with it. I would definitely buy it except for the price. I don’t really know how negotiable the price is because I haven’t tried to price it. The MSRP is in my opinion too high and definitely dissuades any further interest in it. This car is about the same size as a Cadillac XT4 and is approaching its price. I would consider the top trim Compass, fully loaded with everything, if it sold for $40K. It’s not worth more to me.
You can usually get discounts on Jeep models like this but you're still starting higher than all but a few of the competition. -Travis
@@AAutoBuyersGuideMazda CX5 is far superior in every way , cheaper to boot...
Not a fan if the drive mode control placement. Being a paddle and in the passenger side I could easily see it being accidently knocked into other modes.
$40k+ for a non-luxury subcompact crossover is a bit too pricey, IMO.
Different sites put the curb weight of the 24 compass between 4600-4800 pounds. The 22 compass was 3100 -3600. It’s the same size. Smaller engine. What added all that weight?
We don't know for sure, but the turbo likely added some. Not 1,000 lbs mind you so I'm guessing there's an error in the numbers.
Very fascinating that they use a Hyundai transmission. I would personally prefer that to the ZF 9 speed they were using. That tidbit of knowledge is why I love watching you Alex.
Same I was kinda shocked when he said it was from Hyundai
He's a man in the know! -Travis
Everything Ive seen and read says it is a ZF .
The depreciation is what would bother me.
It's something to consider for sure! -Travis

Seltos SX all day... great warranty, good price, and lots of zoom zoom fun!
Competition (ideally) pushes everyone to be better! -Travis
Weird to see so many blank panels on what looks like a top (or near top) trim. And that price is crazy.
I get the hate on the previous year compass’ but the new turbo on the new ones make it not a bad car
You mentioned hybrids...I only see PHEV for Jeep. What am I missing?
He was talking about other brands, and noted that there was no hybrid Compass.
Ah. That's not how I took it obviously, but I can see what you mean after watching it again.
currently own a 2023 Compass Trailhawk with just under 3000 miles, so far i love it. no issues whatsoever. definitely overpriced, but i got a pretty okay deal on mine. loving every minute of it so far! the new powertrain is nice as well.
I hope this is your first car, and that you bought it with someone else's money. At least they're getting robbed and not you.
@@MrWuggles nobody is getting robbed here. :)
Alex, Looking 8:27 at your head and leg room charts, I wonder if you meant to include the HR-V rather than the CR-V?🤔 Either way, the Corolla Cross legroom number is atrocious. 😭
As he often notes, manufacturers measure legroom in a variety of ways. Reviews of the Corolla Cross haven't found it unusually cramped for the segment. You can fit four adult men in it. It may not be great for child seats, but that's an issue for the class as a whole.
@@markmiller3279 The interior space efficiency of most TNGA designs is simply awful. Today's RAV4 has LESS headroom than the last real Yaris hatch Toyota sold in North America! When it comes to occupant accommodation, the current Corolla sedan and hatch are a shadow of the models which preceded them. Many, many reviews have noted the Cross's rear leg room deficiency compared to its chief competitors. Even reviewers who are only 5'6" or 5'7" have drawn attention to the Cross's cramped back seat. I will acknowledge Toyota finally provided ample rear seat headroom with the Cross but neglected space for legs or modern rear-facing child seats. In summary, the TNGA-C platform simply lacks the wheelbase to provide adequate rear seat legroom. In Europe, Toyota stretched this wheelbase for their Corolla wagon to make it a true family car and they should have done the same for every other TNGA-C model.
I’ve got a question about seat comfort. Every car seems to get 7,8,9,10. Is the rating really out of 10 if you only really use 4 options?
What would it take to be rated a 5? How about a 3? What would you have to be confronted with to get a seat rating of 1? How much different from a 2 is that REALLY?
The seat rating feels like it could be “good”, “great”, and “amazing” and have the same level of specificity.
You can get these for a lot less than MSRP. Do a quick search and see. These are a pretty good deal when you factor this in.
got my 2023 trailhawk off the lot for 29K with summer incentives and trade in of my 2013 mini cooper. does not have panorama roof, auto lift hatch feature, or heated seats but I don't need those options. very nice vehicle imo.
I was riding in the back seat and it was 0% comfort, I hit my head 4 times! maybe this is good for children
You used both the terms AWD and 4WD. Which is it?
I own 2020 Compass Trailhawk….poor gas mileage…14 mpg…tiny gas tank 13.5 gallons …have to fill up every week.
I am having electrical/electronics problems…light on console goes off and radio change stations instead. Of volume on the steering wheel…when it works..everything is back to normal.
I live on a dirt/ rocky hillside road…the 4-wheel systems..NOTVERY GOOD ..I get struck too often….BFG Terrain tires…
My rear view camera somehow shifted showing more of the white bumbers , blinding at nights…
If need to off roading get the Subaru Cross trek…!
Compass is easy to drive and find parking..best feature! Aloha
why 14mpg?
Definitely I need it to draw CIRCLE.
With its most recent changes the Compass is much better but it still falls short of some major competitors. The car in this video should be no more than $35,000. CJDR has lots filled with unsold, overpriced cars. They need to “get REAL” quickly and get back to fairly priced cars with much better quality and reliability. Otherwise, I think their future is questionable.
Currently looking at one that is 15k off MSRP. Its a 2023 that has been on the lot for 250 days 😮
Where is that?

Congratulations on getting both "A" for fuel economy 22:29 and getting "Meh" for Mediocre fuel economy 26:57 🥳🥳

Vague, overboosted steering is ALWAYS a good thing. Both on and off road.
Everything Ive read and seen says the Compass has a ZF made transmission. Never heard it called a Hyundai transmission before.
Power train upgrade is good but Stellantis cant justify the premium price with the old chassis. The new Rav4 makes this obsolete. A very slim market for the Compass, no matter the trim.
I'm sure Jeep always has the Rav4 on their radar, that may be why you can often find steep discount from Jeep dealers. -Travis
Seeing all this now that you so nicely displayed the options of the Jeep and others I am now considering hard to buy the Tesla Model Y. The pricing and reliability plus efficiency are really in the running.Yes it might be 50k but tax incentives plus fuel savings makes it no brainer now!! I was really debating a PHEV as well but with gas prices spiking again a Hybrid that needs Gas to recharge batteries is ludacris !!
I'm the EV guy so I'm glad to hear you're considering electric! I do want to clarify (maybe for you, maybe for others reading the comments) that the whole point of a PHEV (Plug In Hybrid Electric Vehicle) is that you don't use the engine to recharge the battery. It CAN serve that purpose in some models, but the vehicle is designed to be plugged in at home (a standard 110v outlet will work perfectly for most) and recharge overnight. If the battery does run out of charge on your drive, the vehicle will start the engine and operate in hybrid mode. -Travis
I’m honestly kind of shocked and confused as to why ANYONE would get a fully loaded Compass. I worked at Enterprise for a few years and the updated ones are definitely a lot nicer than the previous, but even the top trim isn’t justified. We’d get in the top end model and the Latitude Plus models and I think the Latitude Plus is a MUCH better option. Dual zone climate, automated safety systems, heated seats and steering wheel, and you can upgrade it with packages for the full LCD gauge cluster, surround view camera, and a couple other nice goodies for under/around 30k and I think that is a MUCH better deal and more logical, and I would understand paying for that mode. This one? No way
If you wanted premium features and were size restricted (or just didn't want to go any bigger), what would you shop for instead? -Travis
@@AAutoBuyersGuide The features I look for in my vehicle are mainly comfort oriented. Heated/cooled front seats, heated rears+steering wheel, adaptive cruise/auto braking, parking sensors. A plus if a vehicle has 360 camera, auto steering, and pano sunroof. If I was looking to purchase new, Seltos/Kona cover most, if not all plus a more powerful engine. I know it's an easy out to point to the Koreans for features, but the Lincoln Corsair can be equipped with most of the features (just did it on their website) for 50K, and taking out the pano roof and heated rears brings that down quite a bit. CPO 2022 Compasses with all the goodies are selling around $30-33k all over the place. If I was dead set on a Compass, I would look to CPO. The new pricing just doesn't make any sense, even the Limited with no options encroaches on base X1 and Q3. Even with less features the leap in overall quality outweighs losing a couple less-necessary features. Sorry for the long essay, I do like the Compass (almost bought a '22 Latitude Lux with the lighter interior, 360 camera and other goodies for 29K), but the new pricing confounds me.
TLDR; I would either look to a CPO Compass, new Seltos/Kona, or look to the X1/Q3/Corsair if I was dead set on a fully loaded Compass but could give up a few features for more overall quality/performance. For the offroading 99% of consumers do, all of those options would suffice, the Compass doesn't have any substantial gains over the rest.
When will manufactures finally do away with shiny plastic on consumer appliances? I have yet to see a practical purpose for it besides to look nice on something brand new. The day after not so much.
You're not wrong, but the look draws people in when it's new and that's what moves product. -Travis
Wtf.. 50k for the Compass!
I've paid 43K CANADIAN dollar for a top of the line brand new CX5.
For 50kUSD I could buy a 3 row SUV right here.
I also hate everything being optional, you can pay 50K in the trailhawk but at the time of reselling it will be evaluated based on the cheaper 38k version of the same trim.
For me, this case is a totally waste of money
It might not be fair, but when it comes to American SUV's, I have a general belief that anything that isn't the top dog for the company is going to be a pile.
Interesting take. -Travis
3 words:
Stellantis shoddy quality,
and corner cutting (look underneath) for MUCH higher prices than the rest!
Alex owns a stellantis product. He hasn’t had shoddy quality or reliability problems
@@naveenthemachineexactly! That and their "cost cutting" doesn't extend to the interior like the competition lacking rear air events.
Up to 40 you can make a case for this, not over.
One day, I buy new 24' Jeep Compass Alex.
I’ve never sat in the refresh version so they very likely have changed this… but the pre refresh compass has the most uncomfortable seats I’ve ever sat in. There’s absolutely no way I could own one because they’re just that bad.
I wouldn't call these seats uncomfortable but with the minimal seat time I had my initial impression was firm seating. -Travis
The Compass looks fantastic, but I can't get over that price. Ten years ago, the Compass was selling at a discounted price of $16k-$18k. I don't know what the hell Jeep is thinking with their pricing structure now. Quality is not monumentally better and they have questionable Italian engineering now. If I'm going to pick on Jeep, I also need to pick on another domestic manufacturer, Ford. Their cheapest CUV is the Escape, which STARTS at $28k...with hubcaps and unpainted mirrors. Ford and FCA have gone absolutely bonkers with their pricing. It's as if they think they're suddenly well-respected near-luxury brands simply because they've given them pretty styling and inflated the price tags. That's a big NOPE from me. GM is the only domestic manufacturer that seems to be keeping their prices reasonable, comparatively speaking. Chevy recently released the all-new $21,500 Trax. It's about $27k loaded. The Chevy Trailblazer is considerably cheaper as well. Buick released the new 2024 Envista, based on the Trax, which starts at $23,500 and is a bit over $30k loaded. All three of these CUVs are similar-sized to the Compass. I wouldn't even consider a Compass without a massive discount. Even with a discount though, their poor reliability track record has me leery. You really have to be a Jeep fanatic to buy one of these anywhere near MSRP. Anything comparable from one of the Japanese companies is going to be cheaper and will likely be monumentally more reliable and longer lasting. To put it into perspective, you can get a Lexus CUV for the price range of a Compass. Insane. Even the much-derided Mitsubishi Outlander Sport, which can be bought with discounts for $24k-$28k, has a 10yr/100k warranty, a good 12yr reliability track record, an excellent selectable AWD system standard, and 8.5 inches of ground clearance.
Besides the price, this is still a handsome car inside and out. Well packaged too. But that price kills it for me.
Nice review! The specs are pretty impressive for the class. Hope the Compass' reliability is competitive.
Only time will tell. -Travis
How can it be mini-grand ? If so it should be offered at mini-grand price
It is, in so much as the Grand Cherokee is an expensive offering in it's own class. -Travis
The leather seems low quality …..looks like vinyl.
Get a Cherokee Trailhawk while you still can. The Compass Trailhawk can't touch it off road.
Can it tow? No.
How much is it again?
50k for a compass! That’s what I paid for my wrangler 4xe
LOL... Its a jeep patriot with a new outer shell. The patriot was a decent vehicle in the 25k range, (IF... and only if... you got the one with the KIA automatic tranny which they only used the last 2 years).. this is approaching 50k? LOL.....

How is a fully-loaded Compass $8,000 more expensive than a fully-loaded RAV4 XSE hybrid? Lol, what?
It comes down to the little things, but those aren't going to be worth it to everyone. -Travis
Stellantis is admitting the ZF9 was a colossal failure with its actions. First they retired my Cherokee KL. Now it looks like they took the ZF9 out of the 24 compass, replaced with an outsourced Hyundai 8 speed.
It could also be cost, the ZF 9AT is expensive from what I understand.
That price is insane for that vehicle. Its reputation is terrible and they want $50,000.00.
No one will ever accuse the Compass of being best in class
The 2024 Hyundai Kona, for example, is light years better.
If you stay under $30k, it's not a horrible purchase
Just not great.
This kind of pricing is why Jeeps are not selling and remaining on the lots for 100+ days. Plus reliability remains a problem. Buy a Lexus or 4Runner for the same price.
If they make it someone out there will buy it. 😂
When the Grand Cherokee is priced in the $60thousands to start… guess it leaves little choice
I was in a 2018 compass Uber a few weeks ago. Something told me to look at the dashboard. Freaking almost over 200,000 miles. Owner said she never had or has to question its dependability. My mom had a 2020 compass limited for 3 years , near 50,000 not a hint of an issue . I would buy another compass as a LONG term vehicle in a heart beat. Just like I did both my 2015 Chrysler 200’s , my dad did with his 2009’town and country and my mom did with her 2002 Sebring and 2006 300C. They never ever fail us😊
Same. Have an 04 magnum with 289k miles the only major issue was a replacement for the gear shifter which apparently subsequent models had recalls. My model year did not
I put ma thang down flip it and reverse it
I bought a Jeep Compass Longitude (latitude elsewhere) 3 years back and I am super happy with the car till now. I bought a Diesel manual and its better than my expectations. Kia Seltos is total shit though priced nearly the same. Toyota is charging too much premium for theie cars and they also have pathetic looks. I think time will tell about the reliability part.
Kia and Toyota Honda and all them I would not ever get GM doesn't have anything anymore they need to get rid of that CEO It's better than the Cherokee I love the Jeep Wrangler because it's a true four-wheel drive with back wheel drive all Jeeps should be mainly back wheel drive
Jeep playing the long game by offering a 7k discount, only to get it back when they charge the customer 7k to replace the engine out of warranty.
Let me work it
Why does the compass get so much hate? Lol
