Jeep re-introduces Night Eagle in Compass range

JEEP ARE BETTER THAN MOST at sliding new variants and limited edition models into their product line-up, but the Night Eagle model has proven very popular. Consequently, the Launch Edition Jeep Compass has been replaced by the Jeep Compass Night Eagle as the entry level model.

Jeep Compass Night Eagle adds comfort, safety and technology features and further amplifies the elegant demeanour of the Jeep Compass with a host of black-themed upgrades for a suitably premium presence.

The Compass is an ideal size for many buyers

“The latest generation of Jeep Compass has become renowned for its advancement in interior tech, and distinct focus on comfort and quality. With Night Eagle, this is all wrapped up in a supremely stylish package that confidently stands out from the crowd and further enhances the appeal to urban adventurers,” said Nam Chung, Head of Product Strategy and New Technologies, Jeep Australia.

The Jeep Compass Night Eagle boasts an array of eye-catching features, most noticeably the 18-inch polished alloy wheels finished in black. Gloss black detailing extends to the foglamp bezels, front grille and badging, while the window surrounds also receive a black finish.

It wouldn’t be a Jeep without the iconic grille

A signature design cue of the Jeep Compass – the front fascia – is finished in a combination of black and body colour, of which seven attractive options are available. Owners can choose from Colorado Red, Brilliant black, Galaxy Blue, Grey Magnesio, Hunter Green, Minimal Grey or the newly added Pearl White, which will be available to order from July 2022 (replacing Bright White).

The Jeep Compass Night Eagle badge – a hallmark of this specification – rounds out the exterior treatment.

Inside, the theme continues with a black headliner, black accent stitching, a black-finished instrument panel and low-back bucket seats sporting a contrasting black upholstery. Piano black interior accents also set the tone.

Equipped with the 2.4-litre Tigershark petrol engine familiar to the Jeep Compass Limited and S-Limited models, the Jeep Compass Night Eagle is mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission and utilises a front-wheel drive layout.
