A nose job and the upgraded standard equipment have made the 2011 Jeep Compass more expensive than the 2010 model year. The crossover, that now looks a bit like the Grand Cherokee, will hit showroom floors this month sporting a pricetag of $19,295 (€14,524), not including destination fees.
The facelifted Compass comes equipped as standard with more features than its outgoing sibling, including air conditioning, power windows and locks, heated power side mirrors, keyless entry, fog lamps, cruise control and tinted glass, all of which were absent on the entry-level 2010MY Compass. However, it is also $4,000 (€3,010) more expensive than the pre-facelift, which retailed for $15,365 (€11,564).
The model also offers two other trim levels over the basic one. The higher grade Latitude adds a CVT transmission, heated front seats and leather steering, while retailing for $21,595 (€16,254) plus destination fee. The range-topping Limited level comes with a 172HP 2.4-liter four-cylinder, automatic climate control, in-dash vehicle display, auto-dimming rearview mirror, leather upholstery, six-way power driver’s seat, six-disc CD charger, 18-inch aluminum wheels. Expect to pay from $24,295 (€18,279) for a Compass Limited.
Despite being more expensive, the styling of the 2011 Compass should attract customers. The new headlamps and the traditional Jeep seven-slot grille are joined by redesigned hood and fenders, additional body cladding and slimmer roof rails. The rear of the vehicle has been enhanced by the addition of LED tail lamps, new body-color rear spoiler and a few trim updates. A set of 17-inch aluminum wheels complete the exterior makeover, while 18-inch chrome wheels are available for the Limited models.
