Comparison Review

Comfort
The Jeep Compass offers rear passengers about the same room to stretch out as the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid, 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 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid.

Convenience
The Toyota RAV4 Hybrid requires fewer stops at the gas station than the Jeep Compass, 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). When looking only at MSRP, the Jeep Compass will have less of an impact on your bank account than the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid.

Dimensions
The Jeep Compass is a little wider than the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid, so getting in and out of the car in a crowded parking lot may be a little more of a squeeze. The Jeep Compass is slightly shorter than the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid, which may make it easier to park.

Handling
The Jeep Compass has the same turning radius as the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid, so they both maneuver the same in and out of tight spots.

Performance
With the Jeep Compass, you'll be able to pull heavier loads than the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid. The Jeep Compass has a little less horsepower than the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid.

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 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Jeep Compass and the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid. The Jeep Compass has less cargo space than the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
