The 2011 Jeep Compass was finally released today sporting "grand" styling from the Jeep Grand Cherokee, "unsurpassed compact SUV 4×4 fuel economy (28 mpg), and upgraded interior and exterior.

For 2011, the Jeep Compass got a new hood, new front fenders, a new front fascia, new quad-reflector headlamps and a new Jeep-family seven-slot grill. The rear gets a new spoiler, LED cut lamps (on the Limited), rear fascia and chrome exhaust tip.

Interior-wise, we've got the same new interior treatments we've been seeing throughout the Chrysler line with soft touch door trim and the new Jeep steering wheel with audio controls.

Standard power comes from a 2.0-liter World Engine that makes 158 horsepower and 141 pound-feet of torque and hooked to a CVT. Fuel economy is 23 / 29. Optional power comes by way of a 2.4-liter, 172-horsepower, 165 pound-feet World Engine that gets 23 / 29 mpg with a five-speed manual and front-wheel drive.

The 2011 Jeep Compass will come in Compass, latitude and Limited trims and all are acquirable with front-wheel drive, Freedom Drive 1, or Freedom Drive II 4WD with low-range.
