Jeep has confirmed the arrival of its updated 2021 model Compass compact SUV (also known as MY2022 in some markets) to Australian shores, packing a redesigned interior, added safety systems and more technology.
The new Compass lineup remains much the same, with the entry-level Launch Edition – previously Night Eagle – kicking off the range with a slight price increase, with the remainder of the lineup made up by the Limited, S-Limited and diesel-powered Trailhawk.
The entry-level Jeep Compass Launch Edition is priced from $37,950, and is powered by Jeep’s 2.4-litre Tigershark petrol pushing out 129kW/229Nm, paired with a six-speed automatic transmission that throws power to the front wheels. Major updates for the Launch Edition include the addition of LED headlights and foglamps, new 10.1-inch infotainment system, 7.0-inch driver’s display, wireless charging pad, keyless entry and automatic wipers and lights.
