How Does the Design of the New 2018 Subaru Crosstrek Compare to the 2018 Jeep Compass?
The exterior design of the new 2018 Subaru Crosstrek and the 2018 Jeep Compass are well done and speak well of their makers. However, unique 17-inch alloy wheels come standard on the new Subaru Crosstrek where you'll only get 16-inch steel wheels at the start of the new Jeep Compass lineup. One of the best parts of upgrading to a crossover SUV is that you can take more along for the journey. That's why every Subaru Crosstrek is equipped standard with sturdy roof rails. This is just one of many features that will cost you extra as upgrades in the new Jeep Compass. These two small crossover models may cost about the same, but you'll find that the Subaru Crosstrek has been designed to hold its value far better than the Jeep.
How Does the Performance of the New 2018 Subaru Crosstrek Compare to the 2018 Jeep Compass?
The performance in your next new small crossover SUV needs to be ready for anything the roads of the Colorado Front Range have to offer, and that's exactly what you'll find in a new 2018 Subaru Crosstrek. Thanks to standard symmetrical all-wheel drive and a flat BOXER® engine, the Subaru Crosstrek is ready for any road condition, or no road at all. The new Jeep Compass comes standard as a front-wheel drive vehicle, and you'll have to spend quite a bit more to upgrade it with 4-wheel drive that still comes short of the Subaru all-wheel drive traction. While the Jeep does show a slight power advantage on paper, you'll find that it costs a lot at the gas pump, especially when you're driving around the city. We're confident that when you stop by and see us for a test drive at Mike Shaw Subaru, you'll have no doubt that the new Crosstrek outperforms the Jeep Compass.
How Does the Safety of the New 2018 Subaru Crosstrek Compare to the 2018 Jeep Compass?
Upgrading to a smaller vehicle like a compact crossover SUV shouldn't mean sacrificing safety. That's why the engineers at Subaru went the distance to provide award-winning safety in the Crosstrek every year since its introduction. How safe is the new 2018 Subaru Crosstrek compared to the 2018 Jeep Compass? Right from the start, the Subaru Crosstrek holds a significant advantage with Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive making it safer to drive on nearly any surface. Add the lower center of gravity from the flat BOXER® engine, and you'll have a level of control that just isn't available behind the wheel of a Jeep Compass. Aside from its long list of safety and reliability awards, what really sets the new Subaru Crosstrek apart from the competition is the available EyeSight® driver assist technology that the Jeep just can't compete with.
