2022 Jeep Compass Review: Adaptable Performance
The 2022 Jeep Compass is available in seven trim levels. Each trim aims to deliver its driver signature performance on and off the road. However, none are like the Jeep Compass Trailhawk.
First, let’s start with what’s under the hood. The Trailhawk, along with all Compass trims, comes with a 177-horsepower 2.4L Tigershark® 4-cylinder engine. This engine features the MultiAir® 2 valve train system, which maximizes your fuel economy.
Because of this, the model can go the distance with an EPA-estimated 22 city and 31 highway MPG. Plus, when this vehicle is properly equipped, it can tow up to 2,000 pounds. It is great for pulling a small camper, jet skis, 4-wheelers, and more.
Now, let’s talk about tackling terrain. The available Selec-Terrain® toggle allows drivers to switch to any terrain mode that’s necessary for their journey. The modes are Snow, Sand/Mud, Rock, and Auto. Easily switch from one mode to another in order to efficiently make your way through rough roads.
The 2022 Compass Trailhawk continues to impress with the Active Drive Low 4×4 System. This 4×4 system allows for a 20:1 crawl ratio, so you can take on steeper inclines. Plus, it delivers available torque power to any one wheel when your drive demands focused power.
The trim-exclusive Hill Descent Control manages your throttle, speed, and braking on declines. It even applies automatic brake pressure for a smoother descent.

Inside comfort amenities include available heated front and rear seats and a heated steering wheel. You can also upgrade to the optional 10.25-inch Driver Information Digital Cluster Display. This is your hub for all things having to do with your driver and vehicle settings.
When it comes to entertainment, check out the available Alpine® Premium Audio System. This system consists of a 506-watt amplifier, nine speakers, and a booming 8-inch subwoofer. Stream your favorite playlist using standard Apple CarPlay ® or Android Auto™ integration and receive crisp, clear, concert-like audio.
The real standout is the standard Uconnect® 5 system. This system lets you engage with your favorite music, games, navigation, and other applications while on the road.
2022 Jeep Compass: Over 75 Safety and Security Features
Besides lining its interior with an advanced air bag system, including side-curtain front, rear and overhead air bags, the 2022 Jeep Compass comes with some newly added driver-assistive systems, such as:
- Forward Collision Warning with Active Braking: This is a system that detects when your vehicle is approaching a vehicle too quickly and can apply brake pressure if needed.
- Blind Spot Monitoring with Rear Cross Path Detection: It’s a monitoring system that alerts you when other vehicles are in your blind spots or are crossing behind you.
- Active Lane Management System: This system notifies you with visual and audible alerts when you are drifting out of your lane. It can also apply gentle steering correction to help avoid a collision.
