When you think of off-roading, one name comes to mind: Jeep. And it’s no wonder why. Model year after model year, Jeep SUVs — from the classic Cherokee to the legendary Wrangler — have had many imitators but no duplicators in the all-terrain arena.
The 2018 Jeep Compass Trailhawk® is no exception. A compact SUV with larger than life versatility, this Trail Rated® crossover is as capable on the road as it is off of it. But what exactly makes it so special?
Good question. At Princeton CDJR in Illinois, we know a thing or two about vehicles that have a habit of wandering off the beaten path. See why the 2018 Jeep Compass Trailhawk® was born to be wild below.
Meet the 2018 Compass Trailhawk® — Jeep’s Most Capable Crossover
Design
It’s easy to get lost in no man’s land — especially when you don’t have the luxury of streetlights overhead. Lucky for you, the Compass Trailhawk® is purposely engineered to conquer challenges unique to the wilderness.
LED projector beam headlights brighten automatically at the first sign of night or a storm, so you don’t have to rely on the stars to light your way home. And with up to 8.5” of ground clearance, getting out of a tight spot has never been easier.
Convenience
Battling the elements on the road is one thing, but it’s a different animal in the backcountry. That’s why it’s a good thing that the Compass Trailhawk®’s rain-sensing wipers automatically activate when the windshield detects precipitation. And since you don’t want to be buried by worry on the backroads, the windshield wiper de-icer melts snow and ice to restore visibility.
Performance
Let’s be honest: this is the part you’ve been waiting for. The Jeep Compass Trailhawk® is Trail Rated® for a reason. Proprietary systems like Selec-Terrain® Traction Management and Jeep Active Drive Low 4×4 help the Compass Trailhawk® master whatever the off-road throws at it.
And we mean whatever. Logs, rocks, sand, and mud are all fair game for this crossover. And if you want to get your feet wet, that’s okay, too. The Compass Trailhawk® can ford through water up to 19” in depth.

Safety
The engineers at Jeep understand that safety is of the utmost importance when you’re in unfamiliar territory. That’s why they’ve made up to 70 safety features available for the Compass Trailhawk®, like Forward Collision Warning with Active Braking. With so much peace of mind, you can afford to live a little.
