Thrown into a variety of tilting descents, desert washes, and yes, even a little mud at Hungry Valley, the Jeep proved its rugged guise is more than an act.

I'd like to see more suspension travel in a model that's ostensibly supposed to represent all Jeep can do with the platform—which again, is simply a stretched Renegade one. If one choose Latitude trim it will cost $3,000 more. FCA plans to electrify most of its SUVs in the coming years. I'm convinced something must be broken, but there are no warning lights on the dash, and the Trailhawk feels as normal as anything can off-piste. Furthermore, if one adds more features, the Trailhawk model and Limited will easily go over $35,000. When I came over the crest, I had inadvertently lined up my passenger-side tire with the miniature black hole lying in wait, and I didn't let off the gas in time to stop.

The handling isn't the issue, even though some may not find its wandering ways on the highway as endearing as I did. The squared-off headlights, strong wheel arches and seven-slot grille exude a macho look but there are some curves on the body too. However, the Jeep Compass Trailhawk pushes its platform to the edge, with a factory lift kit, four skid plates, off-road bumpers and tires, and a terrain-adjustable AWD system with a "low range" crawling gear. Summing it up I'll do my best to dance around car commercial cliches here; the Compass Trailhawk is an excellent tool for casual exploration, the kind of let's-see-where-this-dirt-road-heads spontaneity that can open the door to, As impressive as the Jeep Compass Trailhawk can be off-road, its on-pavement manners are equally miserable at points.

The ascent is pockmarked with rocks and small craters; it's not what anyone would call a steep climb, but the degraded surface requires consistent forward progress and a steady hand in something small like the Compass. If the regular Compass model exists to lure in casual buyers with a seven-slat grille and the brand's strong heritage, then the Trailhawk mainly exists to show them that yes, their new Jeep is spiritually a real Jeep. Curious how the 2018 Compass compares to other years? It speaks to the confusion I felt as I tried to settle on a verdict for the Jeep Compass Trailhawk.
