The second-generation Jeep Compass (code MP) was launched in 2017, replacing both the first-generation Compass and the Patriot. Positioned as a compact SUV, it fits between the Renegade and the Cherokee in the Jeep lineup. It shares its platform (Small Wide 4x4) with the Renegade and the Fiat 500X.
