Compare 2021 Jeep Compass vs 2021 Jeep Renegade

Performance

While there are a few differences in performance abilities between the Compass and the Renegade, they have the same powertrain. This is a 180-horsepower, four-cylinder engine that is combined with an auto transmission. Both vehicles have overdrive functionality, power steering, and a front strut suspension system. The Renegade has a multi-link rear suspension with front-wheel drive. The Compass has a four-wheel drive drivetrain with a rear strut suspension.

Appearance

The Renegade’s classic looks are directly tied to its shared traits with the Wrangler. Besides having a boxy profile, the Renegade draws style from the Wrangler with its vertical-bar grille design, square wheel wells, and round LED headlights. In comparison, the 2021 Compass has a wider wheelbase and a longer body. With its smooth curves and shorter height, it is easy to differentiate on the road. You can expect both vehicles to have equipment like a sunroof, a hands-free liftgate, heated mirrors, and foglamps at different trim levels.

Features

The 2021 Renegade is slightly more affordable than the Compass at the base trim level. It has several standard and optional features that are not offered in the Renegade. However, both vehicles are available with equipment like a keyless start, a security system, folding functionality for the rear row, a backup camera, cruise control, smart device app technologies, and more. The Compass is available with a remote engine start, a heated and leather-wrapped steering wheel, and a few extras that you will not find in the Renegade.
