2008 Jeep Compass Review

2008 Jeep Compass

Compass offers car-like handling at an affordable price. However, it lacks the know-how of high quality, sports performance and off-road capabilities of its competitors and is located in the lower half of his great class.

2008 Jeep Compass

Since the 2008 Jeep Compass is making his debut in 2007, the first crossover Jeep receives only minor changes for this year. New for 2008 Jeep Compass is a dashboard more upscale and a few more standard features and a powertrain calibration. Most commentators see the compass as a decent daily driver for a very affordable price, but it lags behind its competitors with more refined engine a little power and cheap interior materials. Because Compass is based on the car (built on the same platform as theDodge Caliber hatchback car), it was not off-road capability Jeeps are known for - that disappoints things. Then, the Washington Post called "Jeep for people who don't really want Jeeps." And the positive point is.. in comparison with other Jeep, Jeep Patriot, foundations car-like Compass give a smoother ride. Yet it ranks low compared to other affordable crossovers.

A strong argument for considering the Compass is its energy efficiency. With the Patriot, Compass is one of the most effective of Jeep vehicles, and is near the top of its category with a score 23/28 mpg.

The 2008 Jeep Compass is available in two versions - the basic sport and limited - in both front-wheel or four-wheel drive.

A nice package for the right price.

The name says Jeep, but the vibe says cheap. Forget the Halls of Montezuma - The compass is on the malls of Petaluma, to boldly go where sweaty neck road teams have already walking.

Buyers looking for a sport / utility with good road manners and exceptional fuel economy will find most everything they need the compass, but Jeep loyalists are not likely to be happy on the brand equity given for this new model.

Compass is a wonderful affordable package that is much nicer to drive and much laundry and you expect. And it happens to be a Jeep.
