2022 Jeep Compass vs Chevy Trailblazer
If you’re currently choosing your next crossover SUV, there’s no doubt that you have a lot of options before you. The crossover segment is highly competitive, and while it’s great to have so many contenders to choose from, it’s also hard to determine which one is the best of the bunch! When choosing a crossover SUV, you’ll want to consider its size, and how much space it offers for passengers as well as cargo. You’ll also want to be sure the vehicle is capable enough to keep up with your lifestyle, in terms of towing, handling inclement weather, or tackling off-road trails. It’s important to have a thorough safety suite so that you can travel with confidence, as well as plenty of comfort and entertainment features to keep everyone happy during even the longest of drives. To help you in your search, we’ll be examining both the 2022 Jeep Compass and the 2022 Chevy Trailblazer to see how they compare in all of these areas. Read on to discover which crossover SUV is right for you!
2022 Jeep Compass Power & Handling
The 2022 Jeep Compass has five different trim levels to offer, and each one has the same tried and true powertrain that helps the Compass achieve its various athletic feats. The Compass’s standard engine is the robust Tigershark 2.4-liter 4-cylinder, which supplies each and every trim level with 177 horsepower and 172 lb-ft of torque. All trim levels also have the option of 4-wheel drive using the Jeep Active Drive system, and 4-wheel drive models will utilize a 9-speed automatic transmission. The standard setup features a 6-speed automatic transmission, as well as rear-wheel drive. The outlier in this case is the Trailhawk trim, which comes with standard 4-wheel drive using the Jeep Active Drive Low system, which features a 20:1 crawl ratio. The Trailhawk also bears the Jeep Trail Rated badge, and has a water fording capacity of up to 19 inches, as well as off-road equipment such as tow hooks, a 1-inch lift, and an anti-glare hood decal. When properly equipped, the Compass boasts a maximum towing capacity of up to 2,000 pounds.
2022 Chevrolet Trailblazer Power & Handling
For the 2022 model year, the Chevy Trailblazer offers four trim levels, the LS, LT, ACTIV, and RS. There are two different powertrain options for these four models, which vary depending on the trim level you choose. The standard engine is a turbocharged 1.2-liter inline-3 which delivers 137 horsepower and 162 lb-ft of torque. Models with this engine will also feature front-wheel drive, as well as a continuously variable transmission (CVT). On the other hand, the other engine option for the 2022 Trailblazer is the 1.3-liter turbocharged inline-3, which has a slight boost in output. This engine produces 155 horsepower and 174 lb-ft of torque, and can pair with either the CVT, or a 9-speed automatic transmission. Plus, Trailblazer models equipped with this engine can either have front-wheel or all-wheel drive. Unlike the Compass, there is no 4-wheel drive option available. When properly equipped, the Trailblazer has a maximum towing capacity of 1,000 pounds, which also pales in comparison to that of the Compass.
2022 Jeep Compass Features & Design
The Jeep Compass has tons of new features for 2022, due in part to the redesign of its front and rear fascia that provides a sleek and refined look. The Compass offers exterior features like LED headlights with automatic high beams, heated side mirrors, a windshield wiper de-icer, and an available Gloss Black roof. Inside, all of the Compass’s trim levels starting with the Latitude LUX trim feature leather interior, heated seats, and a heated steering wheel. Other interior features include dual-zone climate control, ambient overhead lighting, visor lighting, and a leather-wrapped shift knob. The Compass also features the new Uconnect 5 infotainment system on all trim levels. The standard system comes with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and an 8.4-inch touchscreen. The upper trim levels feature a 10.1-inch touchscreen, as well as an available 10.25-inch thin-film transistor screen. Lastly, the Compass includes newly standard safety features like blind-spot monitoring, adaptive cruise control, active lane management, and more.
2022 Chevrolet Trailblazer Features & Design
The Chevy Trailblazer is a smaller, more compact version of the Chevy Blazer SUV, and its styling follows along the same lines, but with an overall sportier theme. The best example of this is the ACTIV trim, which is similar to the Compass’s Trailhawk in that it’s built for the off-road trails. Some of the standard features of the Trailblazer include a traditional gear shift (as opposed to a dial or knob), and cloth upholstery for the seats. Upper trim levels feature a faux-leather alternative, but the Trailblazer lineup doesn’t offer real leather seating on any of its models. Other features include automatic high beams, electronic climate control, and a 7-inch infotainment touchscreen display. This system also comes with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, as well as a 4 LTE Wi-Fi hotspot. On upper trim levels, the Trailblazer offers additional features like LED taillights, and heated seats.
Conclusion:
Both of these crossover SUVs have a wide array of features and capabilities, but after taking the time to view their various traits side by side, one model has managed to outshine the other. The 2022 Jeep Compass is the vehicle that ultimately receives our recommendation, thanks to its sleek and refined design, athletic capabilities, more powerful engine, and greater variety of standard features.
