Small SUVs are a dime a dozen but try and find one that can really get after it when the pavement ends and your choices dwindle to only a few. And it’s no surprise that Jeep offers one of the most capable with the Compass. All-new for the 2017 model year, this Compass shares its front-wheel drive-based chassis with the Fiat 500X, looks a little like a baby Grand Cherokee, and is offered in a Trailhawk model that is indeed Trail Rated. Not much has changed with the Compass since my initial test-drive but because 3 model years have passed I figured it was a good idea to check back in with one of Jeeps’ little guys.
