Although the 2010 Jeep Compass strikes out on design, with an anonymous look that fails to be either sleek or rugged, it has decent performance, good safety, and some standout features.

Index of 2010 Jeep Compass Expert Reviews

• thecarconnection—STYLING:Despite its Jeep-like face, the Compass deviates from Jeep’s traditionally rugged styling;PERFORMANCE :The 2010 Jeep Compass suffers from subpar powertrains, but it compensates with decent road manners and impressive fuel economy;QUALITY :Cheap interior materials and lackluster cargo space make the 2010 Jeep Compass tough to love, but it does offer reasonably comfortable passenger space;SAFETY:The 2010 Jeep Compass has good standard safety features and decent crash-test ratings, but poor driver visibility;FEATURES:The 2010 Jeep Compass has a good—but not great—set of standard features, though its options list is vast.

• Edmunds—”Despite its low price and unique flip-down tailgate speakers, the 2010 Jeep Compass ranks as one of the least attractive choices in the compact-SUV segment. Pros:Low price, available flip-down tailgate speakers. Cons: Low-rent interior, uncomfortable ride, unimpressive acceleration, noisy cabin, lacks typical Jeep off-road abilities.”
• CarGurus—”It’s not that the 2010 Jeep Compass is a worthless vehicle, it’s just redundant. With so little to differentiate it from the Patriot or the Caliber, the Compass’ inadequacies – inefficient, underpowered engines and a middle-of-the-road approach – are only magnified. There are certainly better midsize crossover options out there.”
