2024 Jeep Compass Gets A Light Refresh, Starts At $28,400

The Jeep Compass is showing its age, so the automaker is trying to keep it fresh by announcing a handful of updates for 2024.

The changes are unsurprisingly minor, but the crossover receives restyled wheels as well as a “new front grille insert treatment.” The Compass Trailhawk also trades the current Falken WildPeak H/T tires for new Falken Wildpeak AT3W rubber.

While there isn’t much to get excited about, Jeep is holding the line on pricing as the Compass continues to start at $28,400. That’s significantly less than the Ford Bronco Sport, which begins at $31,320.

Higher-end trims see slight changes as the Compass Latitude climbs from $32,940 to $33,040. However, the range-topping High Altitude falls from $39,285 to $38,790 for a $495 savings.

2024 Jeep Compass Gets A Light Refresh, Starts At $28,400

Since the model largely carries over, we’ll briefly mention the entry-level Compass Sport has LED headlights, tinted glass, and 17-inch aluminum wheels. Buyers will also find a 7-inch digital instrument cluster and a 10.1-inch infotainment system. Other highlights include black cloth seats with blue contrast stitching, a six-speaker audio system, and a urethane steering wheel that will serve as a permanent reminder that you bought the base model.

On the safety front, there are a handful of standard driver assistance systems including Blind-Spot Monitoring, Pedestrian/Cyclist Automatic Emergency Braking, and Full-Speed Forward Collision Warning with Active Braking. They’re joined by Rear Cross Path Detection and Rear Seat Reminder Alert.

Higher-end variants pile on the features as the $35,795 Compass Limited has rain-sensing wipers, additional body-color components, and 18-inch wheels with a two-tone finish. Buyers will also find a leather-wrapped heated steering wheel and heated leatherette front seats with eight-way power adjustment on the driver’s side. They’re joined by an auto-dimming rearview mirror and a dual-zone automatic climate control system.

Regardless of which trim is selected, all models are equipped with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine developing 200 hp (149 kW / 203 PS) and 221 lb-ft (299 Nm) of torque. It’s connected to an eight-speed automatic transmission that sends power to a standard four-wheel drive system.

Note: Prices exclude a $1,595 destination charge

Gearhead Nirvana: We Visit Porsche’s Atlanta Workshop Where Classics Get Reborn

Image
Maintaining any car is a duty that different owners approach in vastly different ways. For some, a few zip ties and a rattle can of spray paint is good enough. Far on the other end of the spectrum are owners like the ones who take their car to the Porsche Classic Center in Atlanta. During our trip there to see the new Macan EV in virtual reality , we had the opportunity to tour the Classic Center as it was deep in the midst of multiple repair and restoration projects.  To the owners of these cars and to the Porsche brand itself, what these mechanics, technicians, upholsterers, and painters are preserving is heritage. The center’s mantra “As good as new. But with even more character” is on display for anyone who visits the site.

The New Honda Prelude Will Be A Global Model, But It Won’t Be A Toyota GR 86

Image
Last month, Honda rolled out the red carpet for the the hybrid Prelude Concept , heralding the comeback of a historic name in the motoring world. Now, this car has been given the green light as a global model, set to cater to both right- and left-hand drive markets. However, it might not quite rev up to be the full-throttle sports car many enthusiasts were anticipating Despite being labeled a concept by Honda, the car presented at the Japan Mobility Show (JMS) looked quite production-ready. And if we know anything about Honda, they have a knack for unveiling thinly-disguised production cars as concepts. Take the last two Civics, for example. The 10th-gen Civic Concept was more or less the Civic coupe of that generation with a more aggressive stance and altered bumpers, while the 11th-gen Civic Prototype was virtually the same sedan that made it to production.

As Good As New Porsche 918 Spyder With Just 43 Miles Could Fetch $2 Million

Image
This Porsche 918 has been kept in a climate-controlled storage facility ever since it was delivered. The car is one of just four Hong Kong-spec 918s in existence. Driving the hypercar is a 4.6-liter V8 hybrid powertrain with 887 hp. A 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder that has never been registered will be available at a Hong Kong auction running from April 2-5 and is expected to sell for between $1.5 million and $2 million. The 918 Spyder launched as one of the ‘hypercar holy trinity’ alongside the Ferrari LaFerrari and McLaren P1. While there are many low-mileage examples out there, few are thought to have been driven less than this one. Over the past decade, it has been driven less than 70 km (43 miles) and has been owned by a single person in Hong Kong. It has also never been registered for road use. The listing doesn’t specify how the car has racked up 70 km without being registered. Read: This Porsche 918 Is One Of Just 2 With A Gulf Oil Livery Nevertheless, this car i...
