Jeep is set to reveal the new Compass any day now. Ahead of its official debut, Jeep’s new Compass leaked online, showing several different variants, including an EV. Is this the affordable electric SUV we’ve been waiting for?

Jeep’s new Compass EV leaks ahead of global debut

We knew it was coming soon after Jeep teased the next-gen Compass for the first time last October. As part of its “Freedom of Choice” strategy, the new SUV will be available in fully electric, hybrid, and plug-in hybrid (PHEV) variants. It will also be offered with AWD on select models.

Jeep confirmed the global reveal would take place this Spring in Europe. The new SUV is based on the STLA Medium platform, the same one that underpins the Peugeot E-3008, Peugeot E-5008, and Opel Grandland.

Stellantis claims the platform offers “best-in-class” WLTP range of up to 435 miles (700 km). However, that’s for the Performance pack. The Standard pack provides 310 miles (500 km) WLTP driving range.

With its debut this spring, we’re already getting a look at Jeep’s new Compass EV, thanks to images that leaked online. Although several sources claim to have released the new photos, they appear to be from the Brazilian website, Quatrorodas, revealing several new variants.

You can see the new Compass remains true to Jeep’s signature look with its traditional seven-slot grille, but there are a few updated design elements.

Like the Avenger, the new Compass has a revamped front end with vertical LED headlights and a closed-off grille. The backside features a new illuminated light strip with “Jeep” integrated into the middle. On one of the variants, the letter “e” is featured on the bumper, suggesting it’s the electric version.

Leaked images of the interior reveal a knob for different drive modes, a horizontal infotainment screen, and plenty of physical buttons below it.

Jeep will build the new Compass at its plant in Melfi, Italy. According to the report, it will also be manufactured in Brazil.

Although prices will be revealed closer to launch, the company said the new Compass will offer “affordable Jeep capability” across all powertrains. To give you an idea, the 2025 Jeep Compass starts at $26,900 in the US. In Europe, the 2025 Jeep Compass 4xe plug-in hybrid starts at €42,995 ($48,500).

Despite this, Stellantis froze all activities at its Brampton plant earlier this year, including work on the next-gen Compass. The pause comes as Stellantis reassesses what powertrain options to offer in North America.
