Jeep Cherokee vs Jeep Compass: Engine

The foundation of the vehicle you choose is the engine and the performance you get. In a Jeep, this will determine just how far you can go and what you are capable of on any road or in your adventures off-road.

The Jeep Cherokee provides three engine options that can help you achieve whatever you need. It comes with a standard 2.4L I-4 engine that gets 180 horsepower and 171 lb-ft of torque and has a maximum towing capacity of 2,000 pounds. There is also an available 2.0L Turbo engine that gets 270 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque with a maximum towing capacity of 4,000 pounds. Finally, there is the 3.2L Pentastar® engine that gets 271 horsepower and 239 lb-ft of torque and a towing capacity of 4,500 pounds.

In the Jeep Compass, you only have one engine option: the standard 2.4L Tigershark® MultiAir® 2 that gets 177 horsepower and 172 lb-ft of torque and also has a maximum towing capacity of 2,000 pounds. This can certainly be a capable vehicle but doesn’t offer the same options that the Jeep Cherokee provides.
