Hicksville, NY-- (SBWIRE) -- 02/10/2011 -- Fuel efficient and 4x4 usually don’t go together in the same sentence, but the 2011 Jeep Compass is working to prove that wrong. When paired with a five-speed manual transmission, the 2011 Jeep Compass delivers 23 city miles per gallon and 29 highway miles per gallon – fuel economy that is unsurpassed in the compact SUV segment!

The Jeep Compass is built with a standard 2.0-liter World Engine that provides 158 horsepower and 141 lb.-ft. of torque coupled with the continuously variable transmission (CVT2). Between this power, its fuel efficiency and off-road capabilities, the Jeep Compass is a great model for Hicksville Jeep shoppers.

The best part is that the Jeep Compass in Hicksville is more than just a SUV that perform well, either, as it has a stylish and sophisticated design that makes it hard to ignore. The updated exterior is highlighted with a new hood, new front fenders and other improvements to make the 2011 Compass a real head turner on the road.

The interior is more refined, with upgrades like new soft touch front-door trim panels with a padded upper surface and a new center armrest. The new Jeep steering wheel is built with integrated controls that allow the driver to operate the radio, cruise control, available hands free phone and other vehicle functions while keeping their hands on the wheel and their eyes on the road. Premium cloth is also new, and lines the comfortable bucket seats.

In addition, the 2011 Compass is packed with standard features that make the vehicle as convenient and comfortable as possible for drivers. Air conditioning, power locks and windows, heated exterior mirrors, keyless entry and cruise control all come standard on every Compass model at the leading Jeep dealer in Hicksville.

Safety is also a standard feature on the new 2011 Jeep Compass. Each vehicle is packed with more than 30 safety and security features, like side-curtain air bags, electronic stability control and electronic roll mitigation. Hill-start Assist is available when drivers choose a manual transmission. Front-seat mounted side airbags are also available.
