The Jeep SUV lineup has a little something for every driver. You can choose how much on-road vs. off-road capability you want. While all Jeep models can handle smooth or rugged terrain, some are more prepared for one or the other. This 2022 Jeep Compass review looks closely at one of the more balanced options within the Jeep lineup.
Performance for this SUV is smooth and enjoyable, making it an ideal choice for many near Mount Pocono, Tobyhanna, Scranton, Stroudsburg, and East Stroudsburg. You can see this performance for yourself with a test drive at Ray Price Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram (CDJR)!
2022 Jeep Compass: On-Road and Off-Road Ability
If you're taking your kids to school or are commuting to work in the morning, the 2022 Compass will be a poised and soothing companion. If you happen to come across an unpaved road or rocky driveway, the Compass is able to impressively maintain that same level of poise.
Power comes from a 2.4L 4-cylinder engine. Outputs measure 177 horsepower and 172 lb-ft of torque. The towing capacity is a usable 2,000 pounds, while the fuel economy return measures an EPA-estimated 22 city/31 highway MPG. Â
So, what features are in place for off-roading? First, you have the Selec-Terrain® Traction Management System that allows you to manually move between the following drive modes:
- Rock
- Sand/mud
- Snow
- Auto
Then, you have additional features that improve traction and stability such as the Jeep® Active Drive Low 4X4 System or Hill Descent Control.
2022 Compass: Interior Usability
A proper SUV is going to be versatile and usable. Jeep made these traits a point of emphasis for the 2022 Compass. The interior can easily serve as a storage compartment for goods, a comfortable spot for lounging passengers, or both at the same time.
We'll start with the cargo volume which can be adjusted depending on how you arrange the rear seats:
- 27.2 cubic feet of cargo volume behind the second row
- 59.8 cubic feet of cargo volume with the 2nd-row seats folded flat
If you decide to keep the rear seats standing so you can support passengers, those passengers will benefit from 38.3 inches of rear legroom and 38.5 inches of rear headroom. Folks up front also benefit from roomy proportions as the front headroom is a tall 39.2 inches while the front legroom is a lengthy 41.8 inches.
Jeep has also thought of ways to make the interior more enjoyable during the colder months. Heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and even heated rear seats are offered throughout the 2022 Compass trim lineup.
