The first generation Compass was a bland, brand-killer for Jeep. It was a small, cheap, entry-level Jeep that lacked the performance chops of its stablemates. The Jeep Compass didn't even carry the coveted "trail rated" badge because it couldn't pass the off-road tests.
The 2007 Jeep Compass was smooth-faced and toned down, which isn't what Jeep consumers were looking for at all. Thankfully, Jeep decided to give the Compass a facelift in 2011 and gave it the front fascia design of a Jeep Cherokee. The new Compass also got some improved suspension, a skid plate, and an off-road package.
