- There are a lot of small SUV cars on the road now and here's another one to add to the list. Jeep is really getting going now because there are so many things they need to do including electrification and plug-in hybrids.
There's more to come from Jeep this year so subscribe for more!

I like the Compass, it’s good looking, quite spacious, and the new interior is much better than before. Good car. Yes, I also like it because it’s different from everyone else as well, the Renegade is also good for the same reason.
Agree totally 💯
Bob, stop saying Stellantis bought the Fiat Group. Stellantis didn't buy anything. Stellantis is a group set up as a direct result of the merger between Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and PSA. And Jeep aren't back in Ireland, primarily because they didn't go away in the first place!!
Lovely looking jeep, i have a jeep renegade limited edition diesel and love it and so far no problems 8 months of ownership, got it on a 5 year hire purchase agreement so just over 4 years left and will upgrade to a jeep compass 4xe in either s trim or trailhawk trim, great looking car inside and out, great review to cheers,greetings fae bonnie Scotland 🏴 😁👍
Gansta hand signals from Bob. Hopefully they have cured their build quality. Their cars used to well kitted, but it was like they spent £5, 000 in Woolworths for the extra's..
Great video. 100km's "it'll be grand" love it.
A one finger salute is a totally different thing here in NY. Cheers!
Thanks so much for your review on this car, very helpful!
Hi. Awesome video. 👏 How many KWH did you use to charge all the battery? Thanks.
I agree totally Bob about there being no bad cars anymore. Any chance you could test drive a Ssangyong Korando? I would love to see your opinion on it. It's actually quiet a good car. Ssangyong's are underrated. They deserve to do better. The Tivoli is really good too.
I'm not sure Ssangyong have test cars but I'll find out
I would also like to see Korando and Rexton reviewed. Be great if you could do either Bob
Funny guy on top of a good review
Howya Bob you should check out Rich Rebuilds, along with your Sunday podcast during C19 lockdown, I also looked forward to Richard's show you guys got me through the lockdown, he is a Tesla Expert, he was sitting in a new EV with Ben Collins the Stig on Sunday last., Richard is a pure Comedian a propper cheererupper
An interesting review Bob as you see it, but i'd like to add my tuppence worth.
On my Compass the luggage hooks are part of the parcel shelf support - has Jeep done away with these? They are also removable if you need that extra inch or so. There's also on mine, 4 anchorage loops on the boot floor (which also lowers for more space).
With regards to the fuel economy I'm not surprised. Mine is the 4x4 1.4 petrol auto which will get 38-40mpg on a motorway at 70-75mph - around town waaay low abot 28mpg. But knowing I was ending my commute I was aware of this so not particularly bothered. The Compass is heavy - mine around 1800kg from memory but it has the 4x4 system and a steel ladder chassis like Land Rover, a vehicle not exactly known for it's fuel effeciency...
Have had a chance to take it on the rough stuff?
With regards to the Hybrid I guess it's like all PHEVs and from what my local Jeep salesman (yes, I know he wants to sell me one) if you do about 30-40 miles a day and with the car topped up over-night the ICE will not always kick in - it'll depend on terrain, weather, speed load etc. Top up at work and very little petrol will be used. I see this as a big improvement over the car my Compass replaced - a diesel Hybrid which could only manage 5-6 miles on battery alone. That sounds bad, but my reasoning was not my pocket (a pure diesel varient was cheaper to buy and run) but I did not want to chuck out pollutants on my commute crawl. What I could not forsee was cities turning on diesel cars so although my vehicle was once free of congestion charges in London they came in later as it a Euro4 motor. So much for trying to do the right thing...
Has a bit of a skoda karoq look to it. Looks well in that trim. Boot looks tiny, whats the capacity? Does the lettering on the back say 4x2? Cant believe theyd be still wanting to brag about that in this day and age :)
It's a handsome wee machine, certainly better looking than its sister car, the Fiat 500x. Tho its other upcoming sister, the Alfa Tonale, has it beaten as far as looks are concerned. It also seems that that the Fiat side of Stellantis has upped their quality recently, had a spin in a 500x a few weeks ago and it felt very solidly built. Even the same door closing "thunk" as you found in the Compass.
"Pedants corner alert" PSA didn't buy FCA, Stellantis was formed when FCA and PSA merged into one company. "End of pedants corner"...
Same procedure with waving up here in Cavan, and if its a good mate, probably a flash of lights and a toot of horn too. Its only ojus hi!!
Sometimes I feel like that 1.3 L carrying this heavy battery uhh belly around. Its not easy, I would prefer to not have that extra weight. Lol.
Weight of the car would be good to know, given it is working with a 1.3L petrol engine and carrying some batteries. When comparing it to the Koreans, what is the Jeep warranty period like?
Just rented this in Italy... awful yoke
Can you be more specific, please?
I wouldn't buy any car made in the USA. They pay higher wages so they cut corners on quality control.
Made in Italy. I just hope it is better designed than the 1999 Fiat a friend had.
Monopolies and oligopolies should be banned in Europe. Why do 1 group want to own 5 car companies?
A bunch of thilthy rich who take over everything under the sun...
Couple of things stemming from this review Bob which needless to say was great as ever but first of all as you probably know all phevs have rubbish fuel economy when the battery is out of charge so to say that this one isnt great on fuel after the battery runs out of charge is stating the obvious. The other thing I still can't understand is why the manufacturers are forcing anyone with a diesel car unless like me you're sticking with it until it breathes its last, but why are they forcing us down the route of petrol cars that have rubbish fuel economy compared to a diesel. I understand the whole emissions row over diesels but really phevs due to their weight alone which is another reason why it's crap on fuel as it's a 1.3 pushing a big car with batteries in this case but also phevs are worse on their emissions than what folk believe due to their weight alone. Bottom line, nope! Next!
Three words "Benefit In Kind" (although I don't know if Ireland has the same thing). Quite annoying if you have to buy your own car, although not as annoying as finding it is banned from city centres.
@@MrDuncl thing is even in the North where I live we don't have exclusion zones and they don't have them in the South either plus not everyone has a company car as an option n their job, I certainly don't.
An over excessive amount of talking & poor camera work. The 2022 Jeep Compass deserves better.
Jog on
@@BobFlavinVideo
Piss off
Crappy car. Do not get that. Trying to sell mine. Feels cheap, drives like crap!
Why anyone would buy this crap over a rav4 is beyond me
It’s a FIAT!! and a heap of 💩 good review Bob.
In the same way that an Audi is a Volkswagen or Range Rovers and Jaguars are Daewoo's
To be fair this does look like a nice "Jeep" but you would want to be completely ignorant about cars and especially about RELIABILITY to buy one of these.
I've had my 4x4 Compass for over 3 years now with no issues so not sure what you mean. Can you offer problem areas I should look out for?
Have you driven it? It really is a well built car with very reliable parts. I know Jeep of years ago wasn't the best build but all that is gone now
@@BobFlavinVideo Hello Bob, no I haven’t driven it, I only drive true Japanese brands because reliability is number 1 for me.
I hope Jeep will have improved reliability going forward but I won’t hold my breath! Time will tell!
@@eamonnmcdermott1939 You've still explained what the 'RELIABILITY' issues are though. I'll ask you again can you offer problem areas I should look out for on mine?
@@nigelrowe2204 Mostly electrical issues, then it's engine issues. Jeep has always been towards the lower end of reliability surveys for many years. You're quite lucky to have had no issues on a three year old Jeep. I hope that continues for you.
Just not interested in this brand
Well why are you here ya muppet?
Cheap sh*** rhymes with Jeep sh***
