Brown 2023 Jeep Compass Limited for sale in Knobs

The 2023 Jeep Compass Limited: before you buy

CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2023 Jeep Compass Limited for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. Before you buy the 2023 Jeep Compass Limited, here is what the figures say and what to look at.

A buyer's checks

Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Owners filed 49 complaints with NHTSA, most often about electrical system, forward collision avoidance and steering; have those parts checked.

Under the hood

Its 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo drives through an 8-speed automatic. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. All-wheel drive sends power to all four wheels, which helps on snow and wet roads; good tires still matter most.

For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 26 litres, from its 8.8 L/100 km rating. In energy, every 100 km costs about $13.64 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,500 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

When the Compass makes sense

Its all-wheel drive suits winter roads and trips to ski country. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.

What the Compass is like

Its SUV body gives a high seating position and an easy load height.

Rent it for a week first

Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Rent the Compass for a week and see how it fits your life. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.

Picking a year and a trim

If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Compare the Limited with the other trims of the same year before you decide.

The cost of driving it

The EPA estimates US$2,500 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $13.64 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $136.40 at our price setting.
