2022 Jeep Compass gets class-leading safety upgrades

An all-new interior and a significant increase in onboard safety systems comprise the major design and engineering changes made to the Jeep Compass for MY2022. The compact SUV now offers more than 75 safety and security features. “We outmatch everybody in the segment,” claimed Jim Morrison, VP, Jeep Brand North America, in an interview with SAE Media at the 2021 Chicago Auto Show (CAS).

Stellantis engineers expanded Compass's safety-systems suite with parallel and perpendicular park assist and traffic-sign recognition, both new for Compass. Pedestrian/cyclist park assist is now standard across the Compass line-up, and a 360-degree surround-view camera is standard on Latitude and above trim levels. Highway traffic assist and a hands-on/eyes-on-the road SAE Level 2 driver assistance system will be offered after the vehicle's late-2021 market debut.
