2026 Jeep Compass Engine & Performance
Smooth acceleration carries the 2026 Jeep Compass through trips across town and extended highway drives, thanks to a 2.0L turbocharged inline four-cylinder (I4) engine rated at 200 horsepower. Standard 4x4 and the Selec-Terrain® traction management system add confidence when rain or snow moves through the forecast. The Trailhawk®, the only Compass trim to carry the Trail Rated® badge, builds on that foundation with a standard Jeep Active Drive Low 4x4 system and a 20:1 crawl ratio for adventures beyond the pavement. When properly equipped, the Compass can tow up to 2,000 pounds, enough for a small boat or a pair of jet skis headed to the lake.
