North. South. East. West. The idea of navigation is a core component of American history. The compass rose displaying the orientation of the four cardinal directions was the original GPS, before our modern-day navigation systems, leading to discovery and expansion of our country from sea to shining sea. But our means of navigating and exploring have changed. The Jeep brand and its line of capable vehicles have evolved, too. Consider the 2012 Jeep Compass a perfect example of that evolution.
Stylish value and courageous capability aren’t often mentioned in the same sentence, and yet the Jeep Compass encompasses both of those traits. Taking design cues from its sibling, the Jeep Grand Cherokee, the Compass has the iconic seven-slot grille with chrome surround. Elsewhere, a diverse array of standard and available wheels adds to the look while its steering and suspension system offers exceptional ride – even in less-than-ideal weather conditions.
Looks and performance don’t matter much if you can’t keep driving, which is why the 2012 Jeep Compass 4×2 offers an EPA estimated 29 MPG HWY, and the 4×4 version comes in just behind at an EPA estimated 28 MPG HWY. In other words, this is like one of those well-built, handcrafted compasses your father or grandfather might have handed down to you – steady and ready to keep you going for longer.
Standard interior refinements like air conditioning, remote keyless and illuminated entry, and power windows, mirrors, and locks ensure that driving in the most challenging conditions can feel comfortable. And how, exactly, does the Jeep Compass take on those rough surfaces and that tough weather? With the available Freedom Drive I™ full-time, active 4WD system with lock mode. And for advanced Go Anywhere, Do Anything® capability, you can equip your 2012 Jeep Compass with the Trail Rated® Freedom Drive II® Off-Road Group.
Technological evolution means that you don’t have to rely on your analog compass anymore, of course. An available Media Center 430N radio with Navigation by Garmin® and available Uconnect® Voice Command is available just in case the four cardinal directions aren’t enough to show you to your nearest restaurant, gas station, or trailhead.
