The 2011 Jeep Compass received vital improvements over the previous models that included a revised suspension for better ride quality, a revised interior fitted with more standard equipment.
The 2014 Compass recently received some updates to remedy some of its flaws, but even Jeep knows that the aging Compass really needs to be overhauled to bring in more customers. However, while a new Compass is still in development, Jeep has provided the current generation with some additional features to keep the Jeep relevant in the face of its competitors.

We’d suggest opting for the Latitude AWD variant since it comes with a capable all-wheel drive system, a slightly enhanced feature set and also offers additional options if you wish to opt for them.
