The 2016 Jeep Compass: The Perfect Guide
If you’ve driven an old car, you may overestimate the vehicle’s capabilities. Sure, the ride can get you from Point A to Point B, but does it really provide much more?
If you agree with this sentiment, it may be time to pursue the 2016 Jeep Compass . Just like _ it’s _name says, the compact SUV is the perfect guide for any of your many journeys. To find out why, continue reading below…
Navigation
No one wants to get lost on their journey, and the Compass will assist as you attempt to stay on your intended path. Thanks to the Navigation by Garmin technology, drivers can always be assured that they’ll make it to their destination on time.
Drivers can access these capabilities via the Radio 430N system, which is available on the Latitude and High Altitude models. The 6.5-inch high-resolution touchscreen will provide you with an easy-to-read and easy-to-control navigation system. The system can be supplemented by the SiriusXM Travel Link services, which will provide you with updated information based on where you’re driving. Looking for movie times or new restaurants? The system will help guide you. Maybe you’re seeking the best nearby gas prices or you’re trying to check out an updated forecast, in which case the Compass will also hook you up.
Of course, the technology offers a whole lot more than maps and navigation, like satellite radio, Uconnect Voice Command capabilities, and various input areas (like an audio input jack or a USB port).
Drivability
You’re probably seeking a relative easy ride when you’re pursuing a new vehicle, and the Compass offers some of the best drivability and handling in the class. This can be attributed to both of the engine options (the 158-horsepower 2.0-liter DOHC engine and the 172-horsepower 2.4-liter World Engine). The SUV also includes a number of helpful driving features that will help keep you on your route.
The Brake Traction Control helps monitor any slippage of the wheels, assuring that you won’t be slipping and sliding all over the road. The Hill Descent Control promises that the Compass won’t roll backwards while braking on a hill, while the incredible towing capabilities mean you’ll be able to bring along any cargo.
Having earned the Trail Rated badge, you can count on the Compass to perform any off-road tasks you desire. With five different conditions to choose from (including traction, ground clearance, maneuverability, articulation, and water fording), your Jeep will always guide you on your path, making sure the vehicle doesn’t lose its way.
Safety
When you hire a guide, you’re not only looking for someone to give you on your journey. You’re also looking for someone who can help keep you safe and secure, and the Compass will certainly help you do that.
In regards to technologies that actually help you on the road, you can point specifically to the Electronic Stability Control, which uses sensors to keep you in your desired lane. The Brake Assist mode will minimize the stress on the vehicle when you panic brake, and the Electronic Roll Mitigation helps readjust the vehicle when a rollover is sensed.
The 2016 Jeep Compass is the ultimate guide. Whether you’re seeking a navigation system, easy handling and drivability, or several safety features, you can be assured that the compact SUV will provide everything you need.
