With five available trims, the 2018 Jeep Compass provides plenty of options. From the entry-level Sport to the premium Trailhawk edition, each Compass has its own set of perks and advantages. We’ve taken a look at each of them to help you decide.
Sport
Choose the first trim of the 2018 Jeep Compass if you want a great set of features at an affordable price. The Sport model of the compact SUV is more than ready for the road, thanks to its 2.4-liter I-4 engine with MultiAir technology. This engine delivers up to 180 horsepower and 175 pound-feet of torque at the touch of a pedal, and you’ll control it with a six-speed manual or automatic transmission. The Sport model is also equipped with 16-inch wheels, cloth bucket seats, and climate control.
Latitude
Upgrade to the Latitude trim to take advantage of a whole new set of features. While this model is powered by the same 2.4-liter engine, it improves upon the entry-level trim by including a six-speed Aisin automatic transmission. Aisin transmissions are renowned for their toughness and ability to handle high engine output. The Latitude trim also introduces 17-inch silver-painted aluminum wheels and premium cloth or vinyl bucket seats.
Altitude
Enjoy the advantages that come with the next trim of the 2018 Jeep Compass, known as the Altitude. You’ll get the same engine and transmission as the Latitude model, but you’ll get the added benefit of 18-inch black aluminum wheels, a black roof, and black accents. These striking design features also carry over to the SUV’s interior, where you’ll find black accents on the vents, lower console, and radio bezels.
The cabin’s black cloth or vinyl seating is further complemented by black stitching, lending the entire vehicle an unusually cohesive and alluring appearance. This version of the Altitude trim may have limited availability, so act quickly.
Limited
Luxuriate in the cabin of the 2018 Jeep Compass Limited trim. This is the first version of the SUV to feature a dual-zone climate control system, and it also comes with impressive 18-inch polished gray or black pocket aluminum wheels. This trim also comes standard with an 8.4-inch touchscreen display, with is more than an inch bigger than the screen that comes with the previous models of the vehicle. All told, this is a decidedly elegant version of the Compass that’s sure to attract drivers who appreciate comfort and convenience.
Trailhawk

This model proudly displays Jeep’s coveted Trail Rated badge, which indicates its proficiency in the areas of traction, ground clearance, maneuverability, articulation, and water fording. In other words, it’s got all the features you’ll need to go off-roading. The Trailhawk trim also uses Selec-Terrain Traction Management and Jeep’s Active Drive Low 4×4 System to deliver outstanding performance on even the roughest terrain.
