Comfort
The Jeep Compass offers rear passengers about the same room to stretch out as the Kia Seltos, with comparable head- and legroom.
As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between front seat comfort in the Jeep Compass and the Kia Seltos.
Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Jeep Compass as you will with the Kia Seltos, 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). The Jeep Compass is somewhat more expensive than the Kia Seltos.
Dimensions
Since the Jeep Compass is much wider than the Kia Seltos, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging.
When looking at overall length, the Jeep Compass takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Kia Seltos.
Handling
The Jeep Compass has a larger turning radius than the Kia Seltos, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.
Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Jeep Compass greatly out-muscles the Kia Seltos.
Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the Jeep Compass does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Kia Seltos.
Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Jeep Compass and the Kia Seltos.
The Jeep Compass has less cargo space than the Kia Seltos, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
