Jeep Compass is back in action for 2023 with standard all-wheel drive and a new powertrain, following a makeover that brought crucial quality-of-life changes inside and out. Each Jeep Compass has a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four producing 200 horsepower and an eight-speed automated transmission. Off-road gear and amenities, like a lower crawl gear, are offered on the Trailhawk trim level, which aims for the woods without pretending to be a Wrangler. The Compass is a more budget-friendly alternative to the Cherokee, and prioritizes affordability over luxury.
For 2023, the Compass receives a new powerplant consisting of a turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four producing 200 horsepower – essentially a scaled-down version of the engine featured in the new Dodge Hornet. It's a significant improvement over the old 2.4-liter engine, which produced 177 or 180 hp, depending on trim. All-wheel drive is currently standard on the Compass, while front-wheel drive is being phased out.
To sum up, although the new powertrain isn't as luxurious as the previous one, it's still very affordable. If you're in the market for capability, dependability, and adventure, the 2023 Compass is an affordable option.
