Jeep introduces plans for an electrified Compass lineup, with reporting focusing on two variants: a fully electric Compass and a 48V petrol-electric mild e-hybrid. The electric version is described as having been driven during a preview, with pricing referenced as starting from £34,520. Alongside the fully electric model, the Compass also comes with a 48V mild hybrid system, combining a petrol engine with an electric component to support efficiency and drivability. Both outlets note that the company plans an additional electrified variant after the initial models. A plug-in hybrid version is expected to follow, expanding the range beyond the fully electric and mild-hybrid options. While the provided articles primarily highlight the existence of these variants, the shared details indicate the Compass’s transition toward electric power will occur in stages: first the electric and mild-hybrid models, then a plug-in hybrid later. The information is presented as a product preview rather than a comprehensive specification or launch announcement.
