People are commenting that the Forester is 40k and the Compass is only 32. However a Forester is only 40k if you load it down with all available options. Actually it’s a touch under 40 according to a build I did on the Subaru website. The 32k Compass is the bare bones Trailhawk version. The version Ryan has in this video is the loaded version. So if you compare loaded to loaded Forester to Compass, Subaru wins hands down price wise. Plus more ground clearance and more reliability.

Test drove a 2023 Compass a few months ago. I really liked the performance. It wasn't neck-snapping, but it was quick enough to be an enjoyable drive. The interior is very nice too, but it was just a little too cramped for a 6' 3" person with long legs. I don't like my right knee resting against a hard center console. Its not that its so small I can't drive it, but there are roomier options for the price (which is too high imo).

I agree but this Jeep is more capable than what is being implied. It has a Power Takeoff Unit (PTU) , a tried and true transfer case. PTU simply means that it's front wheel drive. A PTU is simply a front wheel drive transfer case. Ryan is right though, It seems to be a bit worse than a standard (RWD) transfer case. But to act like it's overall less capable is just silly. It's a true 4X4. I like the way he's down playing it because it's being marketed towards women.

I think you should do a video with a few "soft roaders" and run something like that course in each of them, then swap the tires out for some good AT's and run the course again to show the difference. Maybe run them all using stock tires and then swap to the AT's using the same tire/tread pattern and run the test again. I think it would highlight even more which one has the best off road programing.

The lack of power in the compass completely changed my wife and I's vehicle trajectory away from Jeep. I had a 2dr Rubicon with plans to trade it for a Gladiator after she traded her Mazda SUV for something new. She really liked the looks of the Trailhawk Compass but it was SLOW so we waited for the Bronco Sport to come out. We now have a First Edition Sport, a Bronco Raptor and a 2dr Badlands on order to replace the Sport. If the Compass had more power we would likely still both be driving Jeeps.

To go off-road, it misses out on a diesel-powered engine. In Brazil, this car is offered with a 2.0 Turbo diesel with 170hp, but with 350 N.m (258 lb/ft) of torque and a ZF 9-speed transmission. The extra torque helps a lot in situations where the AWD system is managing the torque split. However, for the next year, the diesel will be gone to welcome the 2.0T Hurricane with 270hp from the Wrangler

Very often reviewers say that tires are the issue on these sort of cars. I disagree. The issue is suspension travel. Even on basic obstacles, the suspension travel is so little that the tires are simply not contacting the ground with enough pressure to do anything. It doesn't matter what the tread pattern is like. I can guarantee that those same exact tires equipped on a solid axle vehicle would roll right over those spots where the crossover spins out.

Not having 10" of ground clearance is a huge disappointment. They should just leave the suspension alone and put a bigger tire on the trailhawk to hit 10" of clearance to compete with the Subaru Wilderness.

$46,000 for a COMPASS? I remember when the compass was supposed to be the cheap jeep. I’ll stick with Subaru for much less money

That's blizzard the seat belt is locked while the vehicle is not a flat surface. For $46,000, I feel like there are other better options out there.

Exactly! I'd be interested to find out how flat the vehicle needs to be where it doesn't run into this issue. There are steep hills that people live on and it's just wild it's not a safety issue to let people go without a seatbelt

Wrong friend, even with traction control off it comes back on when wheel speed hits factory ( Nanny) setting. These Nanny’s or as you say “come on it’s figuring it out” doesn’t work when momentum (power) is cut your stuck again.Unless you know how to disable it temporarily for real.😊

I can’t even finish watching this. I feel like my Cherokee Trailhawk with a V6, AT tires, and a rear locker would’ve crawled up that first run no problem. Stellantis killed the Cherokee for this. And it’s $46k?? Give me the Subaru Outback Wilderness. No brainer.

TrailDove rather than a TrailHawk. If lots of unmaintained road or trail driving is in your future, a base Wrangler (add locking rear diff), is a much better option. If a soft roader (any) with an "OffRoad" package is what you want, never leave the pavement without a good self recovery kit. Many of these softroaders are getting people too deep in the woods where the brake actuated traction control devices are overwhelmed and are leaving them stranded.

But the compass is better just because it doesn’t have a garbage cvt. The cvt would have cut the power a lot more than the Hyundai transmission did in this jeep so it doesn’t overheat and come to Canada because surprisingly the Jeep is 60k the Subaru is more expensive
