Jeep Compass Performance & Specs
Jeep keeps things simple under the hood this year. Every trim level gets the same engine, so you do not have to stress about choosing between powertrains.
Every 2026 Compass comes powered by a 2.0L turbocharged inline-four engine. This setup includes Auto Start/Stop technology to help save fuel at red lights and in traffic. The 8-Speed Automatic 8F30 Transmission handles gear shifts smoothly and efficiently.
Here is where things get exciting. This engine delivers best-in-class standard horsepower at 200 hp. The 221 lb-ft of torque is also best-in-class, which means you are getting more power right out of the gate than other vehicles in this segment.
Jeep Compass Capability
These features and more help the Compass earn its Trail-Rated badge. First, you get an unsurpassed standard maximum towing capacity of 2,000 lbs. The Selec-Terrain Traction Management System is another real standout feature. It adjusts shift patterns, engine performance, and torque distribution on the fly, so you have traction and control in any condition. The Trailhawk even gets an exclusive Rock Mode for serious off-road situations.
The 4x4 system features a 20:1 crawl ratio with Hill Descent Control to help you navigate steep declines with confidence. Most models can handle 16 inches of water fording, and the Trailhawk pushes that to 19 inches. Ground clearance sits at 8.1 inches on standard models. The Trailhawk raises that to 8.6 inches for even better obstacle clearance.
Jeep Compass Interior
The Compass interior works wonderfully as a family SUV. Every passenger will enjoy the ride as much as the driver. One option that really stands out is the incredible dual-pane panoramic sunroof. You will not find this feature on many vehicles at this price point. It floods the cabin with natural light and makes even short trips feel special.
The available leatherette seats come with bright blue accent stitching for a pop of color. You can also choose red stitching for a more aggressive look. Heated seats are available to keep you warm on cold Oklahoma mornings. A heated steering wheel is available as well. If that is not enough, use the remote start function to get the cabin to a perfect temperature before you even step inside.
The driving experience improves with thoughtful features like rain-sensing windshield wipers. The Windshield Wiper De-Icer keeps those wipers working properly in freezing conditions.
Jeep Compass Exterior
Some things never change, and that is a good thing. The legendary seven-slot grille returns to remind everyone you are driving a real Jeep. The Compass continues to be less boxy than its siblings and more suited for city driving.
New for 2026, Joose joins the color palette for a limited run. This bright and fun orange color is sure to turn heads. Another new color, Fathom Blue, might be sticking around for good. It offers a darker shade than the returning Hydro Blue. Other colors making a comeback include Diamond Black, Bright White, Red Hot, and Silver Zynith. Higher trim levels also get two-tone options for even more personalization.
Heated exterior side mirrors come with integrated turn signals to help you stay visible on the road. Bold LED projector headlamps light up the night with style. The foot-activated hands-free power liftgate makes loading groceries or gear a breeze when your hands are full.
Jeep Compass Technology & Safety
The 2026 Jeep Compass blends modern technology with everyday convenience. A standard digital instrument cluster comes equipped in every model, while the available 10.25-inch Digital Cluster Display offers a standout, best-in-class upgrade. The 10.1-inch Uconnect touchscreen supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, keeping you connected on the go. For an elevated audio experience, the available Alpine Premium Audio System features a powerful 506-watt amplifier, nine speakers, and an 8-inch subwoofer for rich, immersive sound.
Safety is a key highlight of the Compass, making it a smart choice for families and commuters. Available Active Driving Assist helps manage speed and lane positioning, while Forward Collision Warning with Active Braking and Blind Spot Monitoring with Rear Cross Path Detection add peace of mind. Features like Drowsy Driver Detection and Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop and Go make longer drives and daily traffic more relaxed and secure.
