If you're looking for gizmos, then this Jeep aims to please. Mounted in the headliner above the cargo area is a dual purpose,
self-recharging removable lamp, which can snap out of the bezel to serve as a flashlight. The AM/FM/CD audio system comes with an auxiliary audio input jack for those who can not leave home with their iPod. The centre console features a sliding armrest that moves forward to accommodate vertically challenged drivers and contains a flip pocket for storing a cell or mp3 player. Also standard are 60/40 split flat-folding rear seatbacks that feature vinyl "floor coverings" on their backsides, providing a washable and removable surface for the rear cargo area.
Those who want a few more creature comforts can opt for the Limited model,
which comes with such goodies as 18-inch chrome wheels, a sunroof, body-colour body-side moldings, and the Driver Convenience Group, which includes compass and temperature gauges, a tire pressure monitor and an electrochromic rearview mirror.
Overall, Jeep has created a solid compact crossover for city dwellers whose regular off-road endeavors involve nothing more than negotiating speed bumps and jumping the odd curb, but for who style, comfort and driving something with Jeep branding goes a long way.
Both 2007 Compass and Compass Limited models will be available at your local Jeep dealership later this summer.
