The Exterior of 2017 Jeep Compass
At the very first glance, you will notice that the 2017 Jeep Compass is very bold. With its high arches and angular lines, the new Jeep Compass has a very muscular profile. The details have been redefined to bring you a more aggressive stance. Even when it is standing still, the 2017 Jeep Compass Compact SUV looks ready to pounce.
However, there are some classic and iconic elements left in the design as well. For example, the seven slot front grille is the same, but, you do have the choice to go for either mineral gray accents or chrome accents. Also, the side roof rails are still present for extra storage of maximum 150 pounds on the roof of the SUV.
The exterior also has the halogen fog lamps and 16 inches to 18 inches tyres and wheelbase that gives it the distinct Jeep Compass look. The body color door handles and mirrors give the 2017 Jeep Compass a seamless finish that is at once attractive and stylish.
