Produced in Mexico, Brazil, China, India and now also in Italy, the Jeep Compass - supported also by the soon-to-be launched 4xe electrified version - is truly a global model. The Jeep Compass made in Melfi will be arriving in European dealerships in June 2020, with a full line-up of four trim levels - Longitude, Night Eagle, Limited and S - all powered by efficient turbo petrol and diesel engines paired with front-wheel-drive configuration (the four-wheel drive versions will be available in the second half of this year in combination with 4xe technology). ![]() ![]() Most of all, the driver experiences a more flexible and precise on road behavior, especially noticeable on meandering routes.

Handling of the Compass made in Melfi is enhanced thanks to the new tuning of the steering system, aimed at improving its lightness and progressiveness, and targeted interventions on the suspension system. With a view to the continuous improvement of the Jeep line-up the dynamic characteristics of Compass have been further refined, bringing it even more in line with the expectations of European customers. The new tonneau cover is also available on all versions. New features include the new Uconnect Services for improved onboard and off-board connectivity, new styling cues such as six different wheel designs (one specific for each trim and exclusive 19-inch Gloss Black wheels for the Night Eagle model) and a new color palette with five new exterior paints: Ivory Tri-Coat, Colorado Red, Blue Italia, Blue Shade and Techno Green Metallic - all of which can be offered in combination with a black roof. The Jeep Compass produced at the FCA Melfi Plant will be powered by a new 1.3-litre petrol engine delivering 130 hp or 150 hp, ensuring customers a smooth and comfortable driving experience, or alternatively by an updated version of the 120 hp 1.6-litre MultiJet II diesel engine with SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction). This marks a further step in the implementation of FCA's 5 billion Euro investment plan for Italy, and in the brand's continuous evolution, while also highlighting both the technological innovation and excellence of the Italian factory, one of the most innovative in the world. ![]() The growing success of the model, initially produced for Europe at FCA Toluca plant in Mexico, made it possible to bring production, including that of the new 4xe version featuring plug-in hybrid electric technology, directly to Italy. The new Jeep Compass is now manufactured in Italy, allowing Jeep to guarantee an average delivery time from the factory of approximately three weeks, while offering a variety of advanced user-friendly technologies that ensure a more efficient, comfortable and connected everyday driving experience. ![]()
