¿43.000 € por esto? Jeep Compass 2026, ¿vale lo que pide o es un robo? | Prueba | Opinión coches.com

The new 2026 Jeep Compass is the third generation of the model, and a Jeep that, a sign of the times, is less focused on off-roading… and more on visiting shopping mall parking lots. Sacrilege? Perhaps, but the reality is that this compact SUV has evolved to conquer the asphalt without forgetting its roots. And it does so with an aesthetic that, as my neighbor says, is "hot," but with a powertrain that no longer smells of diesel or mud. Today we're going to discover if this change of direction is a success or a betrayal of its legacy. It's true that it's light years away from a Wrangler, but the Jeep Compass was born in 2006 as the brand's "urban compact," the first Jeep designed more for asphalt than mud. It shared a platform with the Dodge Caliber and combined SUV styling with car-like handling. The second generation, more serious in terms of quality, technology, and design, arrived in 2017, approaching the style of the Grand Cherokee. We tested it on the channel, as well as its 2022 update, specifically the plug-in hybrid version. Now, this third iteration arrives with a radical change in philosophy: it's more European than ever. This is Jeep's global compact SUV, sharing the STLA Medium platform with models like the Peugeot 3008, Citroën C5 Aircross, and Opel Grandland. The entire range is electrified; we'll go into detail later, and today we have the 145-hp 48V hybrid version. It's available from (brace yourself) around €43,000 without discounts. That said, I'll tell you where to find deals and financing options so you don't get scared by the price. Because, as we'll see, the 2026 Compass makes a strong push for interior space and trunk capacity, but it also has its drawbacks. We'll analyze what differentiates it from its Stellantis siblings and whether it's one of those cars you might see driving in the city or on a mountain track on the weekend, which is what you expect from a Jeep. We'll review its muscular exterior, full of nods and Easter eggs, a practical interior with inconsistent quality, and a trunk that's one of its strongest selling points. We'll also test its mild hybrid engine and its dynamic performance, because not everything is acceptable just to show off the seven-slot grille. The 2026 Jeep Compass arrives in a market saturated with very sharp rivals. At its price point, it competes with the RAV4, Tucson, or even the Tesla Model Y if you choose the electric version. It does almost everything well, falls short in a few areas, but doesn't excel in anything. Will that be enough to convince those looking for a family SUV with a rugged image? Or will it remain stuck somewhere between the off-roader it never was and the urban vehicle it aspires to be?
