This can also be proven in sales, so much so that it has just reached the mark of 200,000 units sold in Brazil. It sells more than all direct competitors combined.
“Compass represents the union of design, sophistication, and technology to the Jeep spirit. He arrived to dictate a new direction for the mid-size SUV category with world-class design and did so.

The model was launched in October 2016 and is manufactured at the Automotive Hub of Goiana (Pernambuco), which is the most modern FCA plant in the world.
