What engine does the Jeep Compass use?
2 Answers
The Jeep Compass uses a 1.3L turbocharged engine, which is a compact SUV. Taking the 2021 Jeep Compass as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4424mm, width 1819mm, height 1635mm, wheelbase 2636mm, and curb weight 1430kg. The 2021 Jeep Compass features a front MacPherson independent suspension and a rear multi-link independent suspension, with a maximum horsepower of 173ps, maximum power of 127kw, maximum torque of 270nm, and is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
Regarding the Jeep Compass, it typically comes with several engine options depending on the specific model and year. Common choices include a 2.4L naturally aspirated engine with around 180 horsepower, strong off-road capability, and slightly higher fuel consumption at approximately 9-10L/100km. There’s also a newer 1.3L turbocharged engine with over 160 horsepower, offering quicker acceleration and better fuel efficiency, averaging 7-8L/100km, making it smoother and quieter for city driving. Both engines feature a four-cylinder design, paired with either an automatic or CVT transmission, and are available in front-wheel or all-wheel drive. The engines are quite reliable as long as regular maintenance is performed, such as oil changes every 5,000 kilometers, ensuring longevity. Personally, I prefer the 1.3T version for its balanced performance and eco-friendliness. When purchasing, it’s best to check the specific configurations, as imported versions may differ.
