Wow! This Jeep sells like water in Brazil. I hope they bring this hybrid version to us

[@maxnewts]

Juan Pablo Correia Echeverria I have a feeling they will

[@enrage6073]

So how is its reliability in your country? In Europe Jeeps are considered with a lot and expensive failures and many owners regret having bought one despite their cool design and brand

[@germanou]

@@enrage6073 here in brasil its actually considered a really reliable brand with trustable mechanics. Our market is fullfilled almost 99% with cheap entry level cars, so these kind of jeep even tought it may not be as well built as the german cars, for our inside market they are considered something like "entry level premium cars".

[@AlbertManiscalco]

the steering issue isnt about being on a ladder frame or unibody (jeep was the first to do a unibody with the cherokee) but it has everything to do with steering off road...they have to have a dead spot in the middle so that large rocks and such dont deflect steering so easily

A great review. I do not like the car, but I really like the review and not least how you discuss the less good sides of the car. This is done in an adult and subtle way (which is a kind of standard in all videos from Autogefühl). You really deserve praise for this and thank you so much :)

[@autogefuehl]

Highly appreciated!!

[@jsponson]

Very impressed that they preserved the spare wheel even with a large battery pack! Even some hybrids lose it and their batteries are only around 1 kWh. E.g. Honda CR-V

[@sterpumihai]

being an offroad capable vehicle the spare wheel is kind of mandatory! you don't want to fix a car tyre in the wild..

[@ausspace87]

The year 2002 phoned, it wants it’s interior back...

[@therealbautzfluencer]

How about creating your own test cycle? e.g. start with 100%, drive 100km, recharge for 2 hours, drive 200km, recharge for 30min, another 200km. Then give us all 3 values so can evaluate for ourself how this would apply for us?

[@Pierre-Henri]

thank you for this review. I was looking forward to watching it. This hybrid Jeep was on my shortlist for my next car, it's not anymore because of this poor infotainment system which seems to be unusable on a daily basis. Too bad because this car is a great compromise for a jeep.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks for following !

[@ArtChock]

New compass is coming...

[@sterpumihai]

I had the chance of trying out the infotainment system last year on both a Cherokee and a Compass and it didn't seem that bad to me. I didn't use the navigation, only the general menus.

[@nigelrowe2204]

[@leandroszoidis9414]

Beautiful car! A plug in hybrid with a spare tyre is something awesome!

[@sterpumihai]

Hi! I have a few questions: 1. Is the rear traction 100% electric? If the battery runs out, does it mean the vehicle is now only FWD? 2. Is there a possibility to only enable the petrol engine? If I do some offroading I want to have the battery full 3. What would be a typical regeneration percentage per, let's say, 100 Km? Given we put the car into the best energy saving mode available.

[@kuzya13]

you are right. with battery depleted you get FWD only and this is so wrong..

[@ClaireYunFarronXIII]

Soothing review. Cheers to you and Ajay. 😎

I like this as a transitional thing to full electric, however I am not sure how it will be charged for people living in the cities and large apartment building blocks. Does it charge while driving longer routes or it must be charged from the outlet?

[@konstantinospapadopoulos6109]

First of all congratulations !Really meticulus but the only thing is missing is some actuall off road testing especially in 4wd cars like compas.We would very pleased to know how the new 4wd system works off road!

[@arildlangseth5829]

I think you forgot to give us an indication of the fuel consumption?

[@justinroca932]

I can't find that information ANYWHERE

[@69dodgeman69]

I don't know the Compass but I'm guessing you missed something in the cars settings menu. You complain about the steering feel and I am sure you'll find power steering assist settings called 'normal', 'comfort', and 'sport' in the menu. I have this in my WK2 Trailhawk and 'sport is a big improvement for road feel. I like how your comments seem completely unbiased. You don't hate it just because it's American like many American reviewers. It's unusual to hear praise and critical comments. I'll watch more if your reviews because of this. Thanks

[@imnotusingmyrealname4566]

[@toddbroeker8683]

Hallo, Thomas! Wie gehts?! Love watching your reviews. Just one thing on this one...the 4xe is meant to be pronounced 4 BY e, like 4x4 or 4 BY 4.

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks! Oh really?

[@anthonykaiser974]

@@autogefuehl yes, it's a play on the American term "4x4" commonly used for 4-wheel-drive. BTW, the drive is making me miss Germany. I've been through the Aschaffenburg area on A3 many times between Frankfurt and Regensburg. COVID stole my joy.

[@nikolaidiqnov6801]

The car looks great on the outside, but what bothers me is the build quality. That center console part looks too flimsy. Also, reliability wise, Jeep was not the most trouble free brand. I hope things have improved under PSA control

[@sterpumihai]

last year I wanted to buy a new Jeep Cherokee and I also noticed everything inside was nearly coming off.

[@nigelrowe2204]

My Compass's wobbly armrest still works fine at over two years old.

[@Thelifeofswans]

Jeep have interiors like wheelie bin plastics, no where near quality of German rivals.

[@kinocchio]

[@maxnewts]

Smudge973 it’s to make it cheaper so they can distribute and balance the sales. And to make it more popular with younger buyers. It makes more sense because already the car is fairly cheap so adding the availability

[@lastminutesolutions]

Kind of a good thing for me. Don't want to pay for crap that has nothing to do with driving performance.

[@alexanderryan1176]

jeeps aren't meant to be status products bud. you're paying for the functionality, not the ability to jerk off to it.

[@l.e.i.4111]

The car looks nice though. Too bad that the characteristics are quite low for such a car. Thumb up for the review. As for the car, let's just say it is nice.

[@EdgarRenje]

PHEV would have been good 10 or 15 years ago. Now we need FCV and EV.

[@jsponson]

How about PHEV that uses the battery for in-town driving and hydrogen for long-distance? I guess that’d be called FCBHEV? Probably not going to happen because by the time that FC becomes economical, battery tech might have matured to enable long range and quick charging. It’s an idea for heavier vehicles though.

[@EdgarRenje]

@@jsponson FCEVs do have a small battery as buffer, because the fuel cell can't always produce the energy quickly enough.

[@jsponson]

@@EdgarRenje I'm aware of that, and FCV uses the battery for regenerative braking as well. However, that's not the point of my suggestion. I meant the battery would be large enough to store enough energy for in-town driving, and you plug it in to recharge of course. Hydrogen is only used for extended-range driving, not to charge the battery for shorter trips. One example I can think of is the Mercedes GLC F-Cell.

[@EdgarRenje]

@@jsponson I don't think that's very useable. It makes the whole vehicle very heavy and needs a lot of space of both systems.

[@jsponson]

@@EdgarRenje Agreed on space but I think weight should actually be an advantage over BEV. This FC range extender can reduce the battery size by 60~80 kWh, which can weigh 400~500 kg (using Chevy Bolt and TM3 as references). The fuel cell stack and tanks weight about a third of that (borrowing the Mirai’s figures). In terms of space, I think FC tech still has much room for improvement. In the future it might be no bigger than an ICE & fuel tank range extender setup. However, like my earlier concern with cost, by the time that happens, battery tech might have advanced to negate the need for a range extender. Anyway, just throwing this idea out for fun.

[@greggschoof8051]

I’ve owned two Jeeps. The first, a Liberty, broke down the first day and required towing. The second, a Patriot, stalled unpredictably. Reviews in the US show poor reliability and quality, as well as low resale value. My advice is to look at other brands. Save yourself from headaches.

[@TheSamaell]

For the US where the starting price is low to begin with and a lot bigger competitors and engines. That being said ... europe eats these things up. They are very cool cars ;) resell right now în my country is great and had my renegade fir 2 years with just 2 minor glitches.

[@biggityboggityboo8775]

The plural of RPM is RPM - for example - And here we are going 30mph with the engine going 2500rpm. You don't say miles per hours just as much as you don't say revolutions per minutes. Stop saying RPMs Thomas. Why isn't reliability every discussed in these videos? Thomas mentions that the PHEV is the better driving experience when compared to the ICE version alone. However there's no mention of the fact that if you buy the PHEV there's far more stuff to go wrong.

[@sterpumihai]

Well, an electric motor is far more reliable than a petrol engine. And if you use the petrol engine less, then the chance it will fail (ie. due to parts wearing out, heat etc.) will also get smaller. I would say that all in all a hybrid car is more reliable.

[@biggityboggityboo8775]

@@sterpumihai That's not the way that hybrids typically work. Especially not cars like the Prius. The two drive trains are all combined into one unit. You don't really have two separate systems. Adding in more parts just means more points of failure. What you are saying is largely true for electric cars with a range extender. Like variants of the the BMW i3 used to be. They only have a single, electric, drive train to the wheels. So are very reliable. But then have a small petrol engine and generator too. When the battery gets low those turn on and the electricity generated runs the motor.

[@BoopSnoot]

Give him a break, Thomas is German. You should know that English isn't his first language when he clearly at 1:18 pronounces the color as "blue 💩"

[@biggityboggityboo8775]

@@BoopSnoot Thomas has better English than lots of native Brits and Americans 😂 Besides he isn't stupid he just hasn't thought about what it is he's saying. If Thomas were to say out loud revolutions per minutes he'd be like oh yeah that's not right. It's a very common mistake because lots of people don't think. I was merely pointing it out as to be constructive.
