Comparison Review

Comfort
Rear passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Honda CR-V than in the Jeep Compass. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between front seat comfort in the Honda CR-V and the Jeep Compass.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Honda CR-V as you will with the Jeep Compass, as they are both able to travel similar distances on a tank of gas.

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). When looking only at MSRP, the Honda CR-V will have less of an impact on your bank account than the Jeep Compass.

Dimensions
The Honda CR-V is about the same width as the Jeep Compass. If you go with the Honda CR-V, you may be circling the block looking for a space large enough to park more often than with the Jeep Compass.

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

Performance
In terms of towing capacity, the Jeep Compass is clearly the choice over the Honda CR-V for pulling heavy loads. The Honda CR-V has a little less horsepower than the Jeep Compass.

Powertrain
With its lower torque engine, the Honda CR-V doesn't do as good a job transmitting power to its wheels as the Jeep Compass.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Honda CR-V and the Jeep Compass. With the Honda CR-V, you'll be able to haul more equipment or luggage than the Jeep Compass.
