Comparison Review

Comfort
The Chevrolet Trailblazer offers rear passengers about the same room to stretch out as the Jeep Compass, with comparable head- and legroom. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between front seat comfort in the Chevrolet Trailblazer and the Jeep Compass.

Convenience
The Jeep Compass requires fewer stops at the gas station than the Chevrolet Trailblazer, making it more convenient to drive.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Clearly, the Chevrolet Trailblazer is a better financial choice over the Jeep Compass, when considering MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the Chevrolet Trailblazer is much slimmer than the Jeep Compass, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. When looking at overall length, the Chevrolet Trailblazer takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Jeep Compass.

Handling
The Chevrolet Trailblazer has a larger turning radius than the Jeep Compass, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Chevrolet Trailblazer has a lot less horsepower than the Jeep Compass.

Powertrain
The Chevrolet Trailblazer has much lower torque than the Jeep Compass, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Chevrolet Trailblazer and the Jeep Compass. The Chevrolet Trailblazer has less cargo space than the Jeep Compass, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
