THE BABY OF THE JEEP RANGE is the Compass, but it still has the legendary “go-anywhere” capability that the brand is famous for.
Jeep’s revamped Jeep Compass range is expanded with the introduction of the Night Eagle and range-topping S-Limited. The Limited and Trailhawk variants complete the new MY20 Jeep Compass range.
“The 2020 Jeep Compass boasts a new range that celebrates style, safety and technology, superb comfort and best in class capability,” said Guillaume Drelon, Jeep Australia Director, Brand & Product Strategy.
“The new Jeep Compass range provides customers with a significantly improved package with a genuine premium feel, completed with advanced safety and technology updates. The refined and stylish exterior design cues as well as premium interior appointments mirrors Jeep’s flagship Grand Cherokee range.”
Delivering improved customer value, Jeep Australia also recently announced its all-new Capped Price Servicing Program for new Jeep customers in 2020, which applies to the MY20 Jeep Compass range. The revised structure provides Jeep customers with transparency when they service their vehicle at a Jeep Dealership, with each 2020 Jeep model having a Capped Price Servicing cost at just $399 per service for the first five services.
