The Jeep Compass, launched in 2007, marked a shift for the American brand into the burgeoning compact SUV market. The first generation, marketed as the “Mk” model, represented a departure from the rugged, off-road image Jeep had long cultivated. Though still capable, the Compass was designed with a more urban focus, offering a blend of practicality and stylish design. While sharing underpinnings with the Dodge Caliber, it possessed a distinctive Jeep aesthetic, with signature seven-slot grille, squared-off wheel arches, and high ground clearance. A range of engine options, including 2.0-liter and 2.4-liter four-cylinder gasoline engines, powered the Compass, coupled with either a five-speed manual or a continuously variable transmission (CVT). Its compact dimensions and car-like handling made it a more accessible choice for city dwellers while still retaining the brand's off-road heritage, evident in its available four-wheel drive system.

Despite its urban focus, the Compass maintained a certain ruggedness. It offered a decent ground clearance, allowing it to handle mild off-road situations. The interior, while not as luxurious as some competitors, provided a comfortable and functional space for passengers. Safety features were adequate for the time, including standard anti-lock brakes and airbags. However, the Compass received criticism for its interior build quality and some perceived shortcomings in its handling. Despite its challenges, the Jeep Compass carved a niche in the market by offering a unique blend of style, practicality, and off-road capability, appealing to a range of buyers seeking a balance between city and adventure. Its popularity led to the launch of a refreshed version in 2011, and eventually, a second generation in 2017, further solidifying its position as a key player in the growing compact SUV segment.
