2011 Jeep Compass Ellwood City PA
Overview
The 2011 Jeep Compass is the most exciting SUV in its class,and offers great fuel economy as well.
If you are looking for off-road capability and on road efficiency, look no further than the new Jeep Compass.
The new 2011 Compass now has the option of Freedom Drive II, the most capable all-wheel-drive system in its segment. When so equipped, the newly-Trail Rated Compass gets a 1-inch lift in ride height to an amazing 8.4 inches (0.3 inches more than the rear axle of a Jeep Liberty), 17-inch wheels with all-terrain tires, skidplates, tow hooks, a full-size spare, and, most importantly, a second-generation continuously variable transmission with low range. Shift the Compass into Low gear, and pull the 4WD Lock handle, which locks the center differential at a 50/50 front/rear power split, and the pulleys in the CVT will be locked into a 19:1 ratio for maximum climbing power. It will also automatically engage Hill Descent Control and Brake Traction Control and disengage traction control, helping to provide safer off-roading.
All this performance comes with great mileage, 23 mpg city, and 28 mpg highway; 25 mpg combined.
"With the new 2011 Jeep Compass, we've applied the premium design cues of our award-winning new Grand Cherokee," said Mike Manley, President and CEO -- Jeep Brand, Chrysler Group LLC. "Combined with new interior appointments, and refinements to the suspension and steering systems, Jeep Compass provides consumers the ultimate combination of styling, capability, fuel economy, efficiency, safety and value in the important compact-SUV segment."
Delivering the wrapping and interior flexibility of an SUV with the performance, handling, fuel economy and price of a compact car, the new 2011 Jeep Compass also has more than 30 safety and security features, including standard side-curtain air bags, electronic stability program (ESC), electronic roll mitigation, Hill-start Assist (with manual transmission), side curtain air bags for all rows and available front-seat-mounted side air bags.
Design
The new 2011 Jeep Compass has a distinct familial resemblance to the all-new, premium 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee.
With a new hood, new front fenders, new fascia and new headlamps as well as a new grille that has been detailed with a small dose of chrome surrounding the traditional seven slots found on all Jeep vehicles, the new face of the Compass features a more serious, yet sophisticated, appearance. Roadway lighting performance is improved with the use of quad reflector headlamps, and the fog lamps are now higher output projector lamps. Adding some muscle, the hood has been enhanced with a subtle power bulge. The result is a vehicle that projects an attitude that is much more serious and conveys the Compass' capability in all weather and driving conditions.
New brightwork throughout the exterior lends an upscale touch without hindering the off-road performance of the Compass. A band of protective cladding has been added for 2011, serving to deflect debris when driving in challenging weather conditions or off-road, and providing a new look.
This trend continues with upgrades to the rear of the Compass. A new rear fascia, body-color rear spoiler and subtle, high class touches including new LED taillamps and on the Limited model, bright trim on the step pad and a chrome exhaust tip adorn the new 2011 Jeep Compass. Topping it all off, a new set of roof rails were designed with a slimmer appearance and a small amount of brightwork. The 2011 Compass sports new, standard 17-inch aluminum wheels, and 18-inch aluminum or chrome wheels are available for the Limited models.
Interior upgrades for the 2011 Jeep Compass include new soft touch front-door trim panels with a padded upper surface; a new center armrest; a new Jeep steering wheel with integrated controls that allow the driver to operate the radio, cruise control, optional hands free phone and other vehicle functions while maintaining control of the wheel; new cloth interior with premium cloth bucket seats in the front; standard speed control on all models; new backlighting of door switches, door locks, windows and power mirror controls.
