LEATHER, HEATED SEATS, HEATED WHEEL, REMOTE START, BLIND SPOT, FORWARD COLLISION BRAKING A compact Jeep has to fit a Portage driveway and still get you through a January morning. The Jeep Compass North is sized for the first and equipped for the second. Finished in Bright White Clear Coat, it has the kind of colour that still looks sharp after a week of winter driving. It comes with cloth and leather trimmed seats. The 4x4 is not a nice to have in this province, it is the point, and this unit carries it. On capability it carries Selec-Terrain traction management, which dials the 4x4 in for surfaces like snow, sand, mud or rock. Where it counts for winter, the interior brings heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and remote start. After one cold snap you stop thinking of them as extras. The cabin keeps up on tech, bringing Uconnect 5 and keyless entry so the daily stuff is one tap away instead of buried in a menu. The driver assistance kit is genuinely well stocked: Blind Spot Monitoring, Forward Collision Warning with active braking, Active Lane Management, and a rear camera. The drivetrain pairs a 2.0L turbocharged four cylinder with the 8 speed automatic. The official rating is 8.9 L per 100 km combined, sensible for what this is and a bit thriftier than people expect. Behind it sits Jeep Canada's 5 year or 100,000 kilometre powertrain warranty, which means the engine, transmission, and driveline are covered well beyond the typical loan term. All told, this is a lot of vehicle for the money, and it is ready to go. Book a test drive at Dunn Ram Trucks in Portage la Prairie, a straight hour from Winnipeg. Financing and preapproval can be arranged, and if you cannot make the trip we deliver.
