2017 Jeep Compass SUV: confident and yet uninteresting

2017 Jeep Compass SUV In order to celebrate the start of production at the new Jeep Assembly Plant in Goiana, Pernambuco, brand team introduces fresh and sexy Jeep Compass model in Brazil.

What we know so far is that this one will be a symbol of personalization and versatility: the model could be geared with a total of 17 fuel-efficient engines and that much different drivetrain system and gadgets. Incredible.

What is also known so far, is that the Compass will expand brand’s available combinations of systems: the new Compass is expected to offer a class leading 4×4 off-road performance and versatility, both combined with some super-enhanced fuel consumption efficiency.

2017 Jeep Compass SUV

The good news is that we can already see the design and appearance! And we like it! The new Compass is massive, confident and its stance suggests that it is ready to tackle down all on-road and off-road challenges. But we also have to admit that we have already seen such “tanky” design with the Range Rover lineup. But despite the obvious similarities, we will give chance to the new guy. It might well deserve it.

The new Jeep Compass SUV will be available for purchase in the first quarter of 2017 for North America and in 2017’s second half for Europe, Middle East and Africa. Although this is what we know so far, we do expect more detailed information and pictures pretty soon, so stick with us!

STARTECH Jeep Compass

STARTECH Jeep Compass 180 hp (178 bhp) / 132 kW of rated power and a peak torque of 360 Nm (266 ft-lb) for the 2.0 CRD model, as well as a wide range of exclusive accessories: STARTECH offers an exclusive customization program for the Jeep Compass that features numerous innovative detail solutions and leaves nothing to be desired.

The STARTECH SD3 tuning kit for the Compass turbodiesel model can be installed by any authorized Chrysler–Dodge–Jeep dealer in less than 30 minutes. It unleashes the true power inherent in the two-liter diesel engine. The additional 40 hp (39 bhp) / 29.4 kW and the enormous torque that’s already available between 1,750 and 2,500 rpm, are the result of an auxiliary control module that governs the engine electronics. The engine tuning can be further optimized with the STARTECH stainless-steel sport exhaust. The latter is integrated into the STARTECH individualization concept for this Jeep model based on a brand-new
idea.

The two oval tailpipes left and right are seamlessly integrated into the STARTECH rear molding, which is part of the striking designer suit for the Compass. It is styled like an underride guard. The rear molding can also be installed sans sport exhaust.

The replacement for the front apron is also shaped like a modern underride guard and lends the five-door a more aggressive expression. The front can be further refined with two stylized air dams below the turn signals. Their ‘eyelashes’ give the 4×4 a sharper profile. The STARTECH body conversion is rounded out by rocker panels shaped like running boards.

The STARTECH look is further dominated by custom-tailored tire/wheel combinations for the Compass, available with diameters of 19 and 20 inches, instead of the stock 18-inch wheels. The STARTECH Monostar IV five-spoke wheels are silver polished and fill out the space below the wheel arches nicely. They are mounted in size 8.5Jx19 all around with tires in size 255/40 R 19 or in size 9Jx20 in front and back with tires in size 245/35 R 20 all around.

STARTECH also offers progressive-rate springs that lower the ride height of the American SUV by some 30 millimeters. The lowered center of gravity gives the vehicle even sportier and safer handling characteristics.

Exclusive highlights in the Compass cockpit are added with the STARTECH Lifestyle interior upgrade package.
