Styling for the 2024 Compass is quite distinctive with the 7-slot grille and a resemblance to the larger Cherokee and Grand Cherokee siblings. It rides on a fully independent suspension with a front and rear strut system that features advanced damping. Electric power steering offers precise control behind the wheel at low and high speeds. Rigidity and weight are both optimized thanks to a structure comprised of 65-percent high-strength steel. Anti-lock brakes, stability control and seven airbags are all standard.
The Sport trim features the next generation Uconnect 5 infotainment system with a 10.1-inch touchscreen display, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, 6-speaker audio system, 3.5-inch driver information display and climate control.
