Images of 2026 Jeep Compass Pop Up Online

•    The first images of the 2026 Jeep Compass have surfaced online.

Among the automakers identified as needing to turn things around in the next few years, Jeep makes any short list. The Stellantis brand saw sales plummet in 2024, for the sixth consecutive year. The company sold nearly 600,000 vehicles last year – a not insignificant total – but that’s an unhealthy drop from the million units its was selling annually before the pandemic.

Changes within the lineup haven’t all panned out, reliability has been an issue with sone models, and the dramatic price increases applied to models that weren’t cheap to begin with haven’t helped matters. The brand has even acknowledged that it went overboard with pricing, in some cases.

One of the models that could help the brand bounce back - if quality and reliability are up to par, and if the price is right - is the Compass. The subcompact SUV has always enjoyed some popularity, and its redesign will bring a breath of fresh air to the model range. That redesign is coming for 2026, and following a recent teaser image, the first images of the model have now leaked online.
