As part of our 70th anniversary, we’re taking the time to turn around and look back at how we got where we are today. We’re kicking things off by taking a second to reflect on one of the most recent additions to the Jeep® brand family; the Compass. The world first met our CUV at the 2006 North American International Auto Show. At the time, we envisioned the Jeep Compass as the perfect competitor in the marketplace, though we added in a very capable all-wheel drive system to take buyers where they wanted to go when they wanted to get there.

This year has seen big changes to the Jeep Compass with the addition of the very first available Trail Rated version of the CUV. With serious off-road hardware and an all-new design that harkens to the all-new 2011 Jeep® Grand Cherokee, there’s no mistaking the Jeep Compass as anything but a true trail-beating machine capable of carrying our proud legacy to any corner of the globe.
