Jeep continues its drive toward electrifying its lineup, and the new Compass 2025 marks an important step in that direction. In the coming months, the range will expand to include fully electric options and an updated plug-in hybrid version. However, for now, the Spanish market offers the Compass e-Hybrid — the most affordable model with DGT’s eco label, which we tested during the international launch.
Appearance and design features
The 2025 Compass has a significantly updated look, with the manufacturer emphasizing individuality within the Stellantis group. The front end is now more expressive and functional — cameras and radars are positioned higher to protect them during off-road driving. All-wheel-drive versions get a special bumper and rear tow hook, highlighting its off-road nature. The overall dimensions remain impressive: length — 4.55 meters, with improved aerodynamics to reduce fuel consumption and cabin noise.
The cabin shows clear improvements in space and ergonomics. The second row now offers an extra 20 mm of legroom, while the trunk capacity has increased to 550 liters—one of the best figures in its class. There are more storage compartments up front (a total of 34 liters), and the central console is more user-friendly: physical buttons remain only for essential functions—the transmission selector, electronic parking brake, and the proprietary Selec-Terrain system with ‘Auto’, ‘Sport’, ‘Snow’, and ‘Sand/Mud’ modes. In the future, the plug-in hybrid version will also offer a fully electric mode.
Technical specifications and equipment
Jeep engineers have re-tuned the suspension to achieve a balance between comfort and stability. Ground clearance is 200 mm, while vertical vibrations and body roll have been reduced by 15% and 20%, respectively, compared to the previous version. Steering has become more precise, and sound insulation has been improved thanks to a thicker rear window and new materials.
The electronics have been completely updated: Compass now supports advanced control features via a mobile app. The Connect One package (10 years) and Connect Plus (1 year free) allow you to remotely monitor the charge level, start climate control, check battery status, plan routes with charging stations, and even unlock the car with a digital key. The multimedia system is operated via a 16-inch touchscreen, while the instrument cluster and head-up display provide a modern and informative interface. Standard features include Level 2 autonomous driving systems, such as adaptive cruise control and semi-automatic lane changing at speeds from 70 to 180 km/h.
Driving Impressions
The test featured the e-Hybrid version with a 1.2-liter turbocharged engine and an electric motor, delivering a combined output of 145 hp and a range of up to 970 km. In practice, the vehicle proved to be an ideal choice for city driving: smooth acceleration, predictable throttle response, and extra agility at low speeds make urban trips comfortable and economical.
The suspension is tuned for everyday driving rather than extreme off-road adventures. The Compass feels stable and secure on the road, with minimal body roll, creating the sense of a large, solid vehicle. Off the tarmac, the crossover handles light rough terrain, but its true comfort zone is on asphalt and city streets. The cabin is spacious and comfortable, though some trim and build details could be of higher quality—a typical trait of Stellantis models, where components from different vehicles of the group are often found.
Trims and pricing in Spain
On the Spanish market, the Compass e-Hybrid with front-wheel drive and a 145 hp system is available from €43,200 or from €299 per month with financing. The fully electric version, delivering 213 hp and a range of up to 500 km, starts at €50,600. The lineup is expected to expand soon with new electric and hybrid models, offering even more choices.
In case you didn’t know: the history and achievements of the Jeep brand
Jeep is one of the world’s most recognizable automotive brands, with a history that began in 1941 with the launch of the first military off-roader, the Willys MB. Over the decades, the brand has become synonymous with reliability and off-road capability, and its models have repeatedly won prestigious international awards. In 1987, Jeep became part of Chrysler, and since 2021, it has joined the global Stellantis alliance, which unites more than a dozen well-known automakers. Today, Jeep is actively developing electrified technologies, offering hybrid and fully electric vehicles while staying true to the brand’s core values—freedom, adventure, and confidence on any road. In Spain, Jeep vehicles enjoy steady demand, especially among families and outdoor enthusiasts. The company continues to invest in innovation to meet modern market demands and environmental standards.
