Facelifted Jeep Compass spied undisguised

This is the first ever time Jeep’s compact SUV, the Compass facelift has been spied completely undisguised.

While it loses its anonymous front fascia of the outgoing model, the 2012 Compass will make use of the all-new 2011 Grand Cherokee.

Slatted 7-slot chrome grille, cleaner bonnet, and square off headlamps, will feature. The side profile will remain the same but the rear will be tweaked. The rear lights will be curvier and cleaner than the current model and the rear bumper sport rear fog lamps and reflectors.

Inside, the Compass will use better interior materials and the layout will be similar to that of the new Grand Cherokee. As far as we know, engines and gearboxes will stay the same but will be improved to boast better fuel economy.

In certain European markets, like the UK, Germany and Czech Republic, the Compass was killed off because the Patriot outsold it. Those markets where the Compass is still available, the updated vehicle will arrive late 2011 with a Mercedes-sourced 2.2 CRD.
