2022 Jeep Compass Trailhawk Performance and Engine

Under the hood sits Jeep's 2.4-liter MultiAir four-cylinder engine with PZEV (Partial Zero Emissions Vehicle) certification — a setup that balances everyday efficiency with enough muscle to handle Michigan's demanding conditions. Paired with a smooth-shifting 9-speed automatic transmission and full 4WD, this powertrain is engineered for more than just pavement.
 

What the 9-Speed Automatic Means for Real-World Driving

The 9-speed transmission gives the Compass Trailhawk excellent gear spacing — you get responsive acceleration off the line, confident highway cruising, and smart downshifting on hills or when towing light loads. Combined with the Trailhawk's Jeep Active Drive Low 4WD system, Rock mode, and a best-in-class 8.6 inches of ground clearance for the Compass lineup, this SUV genuinely earns its Trailhawk badge. Whether you're navigating icy Detroit city streets or heading up to the Upper Peninsula for a weekend trip, the drivetrain inspires real confidence.
 

Jeep Compass Trailhawk Features and Interior

The Trailhawk trim elevates the Compass well beyond base spec. Inside, expect heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and Jeep's Uconnect infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. The cabin is designed to handle outdoor adventure without sacrificing everyday comfort — durable, easy-to-clean materials meet thoughtful ergonomics and intuitive controls.
 

Technology and Safety Features

The 2022 Compass Trailhawk includes a robust suite of driver-assist and safety technologies. Forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and lane departure warning come standard at this trim level. These aren't just checkbox features — they're genuinely useful on busy Detroit metro expressways like I-75 or I-96.
 

Jeep Compass Reliability and Ownership

The Compass has matured significantly since its earlier generations. The 2022 model year represents one of the most refined versions of this platform, with Jeep addressing many of the reliability concerns that affected earlier model years. Owners consistently report solid performance from the 2.4-liter engine over high mileages, and the 9-speed transmission — once a pain point in older FCA products — has seen meaningful refinement by this generation.

The Trailhawk's off-road-specific hardware, including skid plates and all-terrain tires, does add some variables to long-term ownership, but these components are widely available and straightforward to service. As with any used vehicle approaching 100,000 miles, a pre-purchase inspection is always smart — but the Compass Trailhawk's reputation for durability makes this a genuinely low-risk used SUV buy when properly maintained.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the 2022 Jeep Compass Trailhawk a good buy?

Yes — the 2022 Jeep Compass Trailhawk is widely considered one of the strongest years for this model. It offers genuine off-road capability, a well-equipped interior, and a refined powertrain at a price point that significantly undercuts larger Jeep SUVs like the Cherokee or Grand Cherokee. For buyers who want Jeep DNA without the larger footprint or price tag, the Trailhawk is an excellent choice.
 

Is 97,000 miles too many for a used Jeep Compass?

Not at all — especially on a 2022 model with a well-maintained 2.4-liter MultiAir engine. With regular oil changes and standard upkeep, this engine is built to go well past 150,000 miles. At this mileage, you benefit from the biggest depreciation already being absorbed by the previous owner, while still having plenty of useful life ahead.
 

What does the Trailhawk trim include that other Compass trims don't?

The Trailhawk is Jeep's off-road-specific trim for the Compass. It uniquely features Jeep Active Drive Low 4WD with a dedicated Rock mode, front and rear skid plates, red tow hooks, all-terrain tires, and increased ground clearance compared to other Compass trims. Inside, it adds heated seats, a heated steering wheel, and additional safety technology not found on base or Sport trims.
 

Does the 2022 Jeep Compass Trailhawk have Apple CarPlay?

Yes. The 2022 Compass Trailhawk comes equipped with Jeep's Uconnect infotainment system, which includes both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, making it easy to connect your smartphone for navigation, music, and hands-free calling right from the touchscreen.
 

Is a Jeep Compass Trailhawk good in Michigan winters?

Absolutely. The Trailhawk's 4WD system, all-terrain tires, and higher ground clearance make it one of the better-suited compact SUVs for Michigan winters.
