The 2025 Jeep Compass continues to stand out as one of the most affordable ways to get behind the wheel of a small, capable SUV. Now in its ninth year, the Compass hasn’t seen major physical changes for 2025, but it still delivers everything buyers expect from Jeep—style, comfort, and all-weather confidence. Let's take a look at two of its trims, the (base) Sport trim and Latitude.
Key Takeaways
- The 2025 Jeep Compass base trim starts under $30,000, making it a strong value for first-time SUV buyers.
- Changes for 2025 are minimal, though a redesign could be on the horizon.
- Jeep may introduce a hybrid version within the next model year or two.
What are the Differences between Jeep Compass Latitude and Sport?
From the outside, no matter the trim, the Compass draws inspiration from the larger Grand Cherokee, featuring Jeep’s bold seven-slot grille and slim, hawk-like headlights. The Compass Sport serves as the entry point to the lineup. Even at the base level, it offers 17-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights, and keyless ignition. Inside, you’ll find rear seat A/C vents, an 8.4-inch touchscreen, and a six-speaker audio system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Jeep also includes an impressive suite of safety features, including forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking, lane departure mitigation, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, driver attention warning, and a rear seat reminder. (These also apply to the Latitude.) All of this is for the low price of $28,895, as of October 6, 2025.
When you move up to the Compass Latitude, you’ll notice some worthwhile upgrades. This trim adds foglights, automatic high beams, roof rails, and remote engine start. Inside, you get heated front seats, a heated synthetic leather-wrapped steering wheel, and synthetic leather upholstery with cloth inserts. The Latitude also opens the door to additional option packages that let you personalize the SUV’s look and feel.
We recommend adding th eConvenience Group package for more features or the Driver Assistance Group package for more advanced driver aids. Pricing for the Latitude is $30,165.
Power, Performance, and Fuel Efficiency in the 2025 Jeep Compass
Every 2025 Jeep Compass uses the same 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four engine, producing 200 horsepower and paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. All-wheel drive is standard, making it well-suited for unpredictable road conditions. Fuel economy is solid at 24 mpg in the city and 32 mpg on the highway.
The Compass also includes four selectable drive modes—Auto, Snow, Sand, and Mud. When properly equipped, it can tow up to 2,000 pounds, giving it just enough muscle for small trailers or gear hauls.
2025 Compass Cabin and Creature Comforts
It’s not the roomiest SUV in its class, but the Compass comfortably seats four adults and offers enough cargo space for everyday errands or a weekend getaway. Long road trips or heavy packing may push its limits, but for most daily use, it’s right on target.
Technology is another area where the Compass holds its own. The standard 8.4-inch touchscreen infotainment system includes voice recognition, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and built-in navigation.
