The Compass enters 2021 with minor changes. There's a new 80th Anniversary Edition that's based on the Latitude trim level and features Granite Crystal 19-inch wheels, leather seats with contrast stitching, a power-adjustable driver's seat, remote start, an 8.4-inch touchscreen, a 115-volt power outlet, and more. Other flourishes include trim-specific badging, an oak medallion key fob, and piano-black and gunmetal interior accents.
Pros Can actually handle some off-road obstacles, no shortage of popular technology, one of the prettier Jeep designs.
Cons Inferior interior materials, powertrain has apathetic responses, the Cherokee offers more capability.

Now that the all-new 2022 Bronco Raptor has been officially revealed, we can't wait to test it side-by-side with the 470-hp Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392. Ford says deliveries will begin this summer, and anyone who already has an existing order for the regular Bronco is able to change it to the Raptor.
Pros A blast to drive off-road, generous standard equipment, virtually lag-free turbocharging.
Cons Abysmal fuel economy, F-150 Raptor is more powerful, feels considerably wider on the road than the standard Bronco.
