Since its introduction in 2007, the Jeep Compass has been known for its off-road capabilities and for combining premium craftsmanship with iconic Jeep styling. The 2025 Jeep Compass brings significant updates from the 2024 model, enhancing its appeal in the compact SUV market with a host of advanced technology and safety features.
The Compass excels in its segment by providing the perfect blend of ruggedness, comfort, and utility to meet all your daily driving needs and adventurous weekend requirements. In this article, our team at Ciocca Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram (CDJR) of Hanover looks at the differences between the 2024 and 2025 models.
Key Updates for 2025
For the new model year, the Jeep Compass has received updates to enhance its appeal and driveability. It features refined exterior styling, intuitive safety and security tech, and advanced powertrain options for improved aesthetics and performance. For 2025, Jeep has said goodbye to the Latitude Lux trim and is reportedly introducing a new colorway called Joose.
Exterior Features and Performance Comparison
There are some subtle differences in performance and external styling between the 2024 and 2025 models.
Exterior Features
The 2024 Jeep Compass is 173.4 inches long, 64.6 inches tall, and 73.8 inches wide. The 2025 model shares identical dimensions but has a more contemporary look with new grille designs and lighting elements. The restyling of several signature components adds to the 2025 Compass’ on-road sophistication and off-road performance.
Engine Options and Horsepower
The 2024 Jeep Compass comes equipped with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, producing 200 horsepower and 221 pound-feet of torque. It's paired with a standard all-wheel-drive system to help you navigate rocky terrain. It also comes with a smooth eight-speed automatic transmission and a towing capacity of 2,000 pounds when properly equipped.
Under the hood of the 2025 Jeep Compass, you'll find a similar 2.0-liter turbo engine paired with an efficient eight-speed automatic transmission, which delivers the same horsepower and torque. You'll get improved fuel efficiency thanks to engine stop-start technology, and, like the 2024 model, the maximum towing capacity is 2,000 pounds. The 2025 model also comes with Jeep's Active Drive 4×4 system, as well as an upgraded trail-rated suspension and improved all-wheel-drive technology.
If you're an outdoor lover seeking enhanced off-road capabilities, the Compass’ Trailhawk trim remains relatively unchanged for 2025 and still offers a range of terrain-tuned features, including an enhanced suspension and all-terrain tires.
Fuel Efficiency
Both the 2024 and 2025 models get an EPA-estimated 24 mpg in the city, 32 mpg on the highway, and 27 mpg combined. This impressive fuel economy is the same across all trims. Fuel-efficient features, such as an eight-speed automatic transmission and engine stop-start technology, help optimize performance and enhance off-road driving.
Interior Features and Comfort
The 2024 Compass boasts various interior features designed for comfort and convenience. These include dual-zone automatic climate control, heated leather-trimmed front seats, and a heated steering wheel in higher trims. It has a standard 10.1-inch Uconnect touchscreen that supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Both the 2024 and 2025 models offer seating for five, but the updated Compass introduces redesigned seats that provide better comfort and support, especially on longer drives. It also improves upon its predecessor by incorporating higher-quality materials in the cabin and updated trim options for a premium feel.
The cargo space is generous in both models, with a cargo capacity of 27.2 cubic feet behind the second row of seats. When you fold the rear seats down, this cargo volume expands to a maximum of 59.8 cubic feet.
The 2025 Compass also offers heated and ventilated seats, a heated steering wheel, and dual-zone automatic climate control on higher trims. The Sport and Latitude models come standard with an 8.4-inch touchscreen, while the Limited and Trailhawk models have a 10.1-inch infotainment display.
Technology and Safety Features
Both models come with a range of technology features, including remote keyless entry, push-button start, the latest Uconnect 5 infotainment system, and either a six-speaker sound system or a nine-speaker Alpine premium audio system.
Standard safety features include drowsy driver detection, an active lane management system, and a ParkView rear backup camera. Available technologies on higher trims include features such as:
- Parallel and Perpendicular Park and Unpark Assist
- Active Driving Assist (a semi-autonomous driving system)
- Traffic sign recognition
- A 360-degree surround-view camera
These driver-assistance technologies aim to give you peace of mind while on the road.
