2020 Jeep Compass Latitude

The 2020 Compass slots into the compact SUV segment, offering a more affordable entry into Jeep's lineup than the Cherokee. It competes with the Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4, and Ford Escape, but brings genuine off-road credentials to the table. The Compass handles confidently on pavement, though the transmission can hunt for gears at times. The ride is composed over most surfaces, but the cabin lets in some road noise at highway speeds. Cargo space is competitive for the class, and the rear seats fold flat to expand the load area. The Latitude sits between the base Sport and the Limited, adding a leather-wrapped steering wheel and dual-zone automatic climate control. The 2.4L I4 makes 180 horsepower and pairs with a six-speed automatic in this front-drive Latitude, returning 25 mpg combined.
