As you probably knew already, Jeep builds most of its high-end models in Mexico, at Toluca factory, with the new Compass also to be manufactured there.

Besides the cool exterior with an evolutionary design and high-end features inside, the 2017 Jeep Compass is also coming with a good powertrain under the hood, which provides low fuel-consumption and CO2 emissions.
