Standard 4x4
Every 2026 Compass comes with four-wheel drive for confident traction in Kentucky rain and snow.
The 2026 Jeep Compass is the most affordable way into a new Jeep 4x4. Every Compass uses a turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder with 200 hp and a Best-in-Class 221 lb-ft of torque, standard four-wheel drive and a 10.1-inch touchscreen, starting at $29,550 MSRP for the Latitude.
Oxmoor CDJR had 5 new Compass SUVs in the Oct 31 crawl. Compare the Latitude, Limited and trail-ready Trailhawk at 4520 Shelbyville Rd, an easy trip from Louisville, St. Matthews, Middletown, Lyndon, Jeffersontown and Shelbyville.
The Latitude spec sheet lists a 2.0L turbo four-cylinder rated at 200 hp and 221 lb-ft, an eight-speed automatic and four-wheel drive, with EPA estimates of 24 city / 32 highway / 27 combined MPG. Jeep rates towing at 2,000 pounds, which it calls Unsurpassed-in-Class among standard figures, and folding the rear seats opens up 59.8 cubic feet of cargo space.
The lineup runs from Latitude and Latitude Altitude through the 85th Anniversary Edition, Limited, Trail Rated Trailhawk and Limited Altitude. Available features include a dramatic panoramic sunroof, foot-activated Open 'N Go liftgate, leatherette seats and the Active Driving Assist system.

The Latitude covers the essentials: the same 200-hp turbo engine and 4x4 system as every Compass, a 10.1-inch screen and Jeep styling for under $30,000. The Latitude Altitude and Limited Altitude add a sportier blacked-out look.
The Limited is the comfort-focused choice with upgraded materials and convenience features, while the Trailhawk is the one to pick if you'll actually leave the pavement. Its all-terrain tires and Trail Rated hardware handle gravel roads and muddy trails better than any other Compass.
Since all trims share the same engine, MPG and towing rating, choose based on style, comfort and how off-road-ready you want to be. Our team can show you current Compass offers and bonus cash on in-stock units.
Shoppers deciding between trims usually start with the Latitude at $29,550 for value, then look at Limited at $33,560 for added comfort and technology. If you plan to leave the pavement, the Trailhawk at $34,060 is the Trail Rated choice. Every 2026 Compass comes with standard 4x4, so you are not paying extra for all-weather traction.

The Compass is right-sized for Louisville: easy to park in St. Matthews and downtown, efficient on the commute and capable enough for a weekend at Otter Creek or Bernheim Forest. Standard 4x4 is a real advantage when winter weather hits.
Keep your Compass running strong with factory-recommended maintenance at our Mopar service department. Express Lane oil changes and online scheduling make it easy.
For many Louisville buyers, the Compass is a step up from a compact car without the size or cost of a midsize SUV. Its 2,000-pound maximum towing is enough for a small utility trailer or a pair of jet skis headed to Taylorsville Lake, and an EPA-estimated 32 MPG highway keeps commuting costs in check on I-64 and I-71.
