In the SUV market, the positioning of the new generation of Jeep Compass is very interesting. From the perspective of size, it will be larger than the traditional small SUV, but it is definitely not up to the size that a traditional compact SUV should have. At the same time, as a Jeep, it is a rare product in the urban SUV market that can refine a certain off-road personality.
In the domestic market, the 2020 Jeep Compass has been quietly replaced with a brand new 1.3T turbocharged engine. Compared with the previous 1.4T power, the new 1.3T turbocharged engine has increased power. parameters, the maximum output power has been increased to 127 kilowatts, and the maximum torque has also increased to 270 Nm. After completing the layout of the Chinese market, Jeep Compass also released a new 1.3T model in the European market a few days ago.
It is reported that the 1.3T Jeep Compass sold in Europe will save about 30% of fuel consumption compared with the old model, but the power will be lowered compared with the domestic version. The main model has a maximum output of 97 kilowatts. It is matched with a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox or a six-speed manual gearbox, and the driving forms are front-wheel drive and four-wheel drive. The maximum output power of the high-power version is only 112 kilowatts, which is quite different from the models sold in China.
The Jeep Compass launched in the European market provides a total of five models. In addition to 1.3T gasoline power, there is also a 1.6L diesel version as an entry-level model, with a maximum output of 85 kilowatts and a maximum torque of 320 Nm. It is matched only with a six-speed manual transmission and front-wheel drive.
It is worth noting that with the release of the new car, Jeep also said that it will launch a plug-in hybrid version in the second half of this year. The new car will be equipped with a combination of a 1.3T turbocharged engine and an electric motor. The power is about 142 kW or 179 kW, and only four-wheel drive configuration is available.
In addition to power optimization, the new Jeep Compass for the European market will also strengthen a series of intelligent configuration and active safety equipment. How should I put it, the models sold in the Chinese market have more power than those sold in the European market, and such a situation is really rare.
