Famous brand, four-wheel drive, powerful engine - that's what comes up when you mention the words Jeep Compass. This car is a worthy successor to the proud Jeep dynasty, capable of conquering space and time. The car entered the market in 2007, but its appearance, to be honest, was not very attractive. Some kind of rounded, awkward, with headlights, which, as if, reflected the whole miserable life of the car.

However, in 2011, as a result of restyling, that car appeared, having seen it on the street, it is impossible not to look away. Jeep Compass is somewhat reminiscent of its off-road brothers, however, it already belongs to a different class. This is a compact crossover with all the ensuing consequences. In other words, it will crawl out of a snowdrift in the yard, move over a puddle, but climbing somewhere into dense forests and endless fields is still not worth it.

The 2011 restyled Jeep Compass inherited signature features from its forefathers. This is a powerful radiator grille with vertical slots, which gives the car a somewhat aggressive look, and already familiar headlights, and wheel arches that are unusual for most cars. All thistogether with a proud inscription on the hood distinguishes the Jeep Compass from fellow SUVs. You don’t even need to look into the salon to understand that this is a real American, and not just a representative of a common class of SUVs from Korea or Japan.

Pleasant features include the steering wheel, which has a lot of buttons for controlling electronic systems, and plastic, on which they decided not to save, which further emphasized the style of the car. The salon is spacious and quite comfortable. True, the creators did not make the back seat very comfortable, maybe the short cushion was made so that when the cabin was folded there was a really smooth surface. The front chair can also be put down, and there will be an impromptu table on its back. The car is generally designed for long journeys and is adapted so that the driver can fully eat. Another fun but nice touch is that the cup holders on the center console are illuminated in a nice green color so you won't miss out.

For the city, the car may seem a little bulky, but off-road, the Jeep Compass is clearly superior to its relatives. Energy-intensive suspension allows you to go through potholes, and a tight steering wheel in the city allows you to perfectly control the car off the road.

And all this is combined in a pleasant way in the Jeep Compass. The price of such a car in the cheapest configuration is about a million rubles. For this money, you will have a gasoline car with a 2.4 engine with 170 horses withautomatic transmission or a two-liter diesel engine on the mechanics. Here, as

Here, as they say, who likes what. Diesel is more economical, but growls stronger. This equipment is called "Sport", in principle, it has everything you need for a comfortable and safe ride both in the city and on country roads. The more expensive Limited trim only comes with a 2.4 petrol engine and a CVT. There are already 18-inch wheels, cruise control, leather and a more advanced audio system. Another seemingly trifle is the body-colored door handles, which give the car solidity. This version will cost an average of 1,200,000 rubles.
