Dodge Hornet & Jeep Compass: Small SUVs That Do So Much More

Compact cars are great for fuel efficiency and easy parking, but sometimes you need a little more muscle, space, and ground clearance to tackle Garden State traffic. The Dodge Hornet and Jeep Compass are small-but-mighty SUVs that combine the agility of a compact car with the capability of a larger vehicle. They’ve got all-wheel drive options, extra cargo room, and enough power to make highway merges a whole lot less stressful — which is why they make great alternatives to the compact sedans featured in Nielsen Editorial’s piece on Best-Selling Compact Cars in NJ.

The Dodge Hornet is for drivers who like a little adrenaline with their morning commute. A turbocharged 268-horsepower engine makes sure you’re never left in the dust on the Turnpike, and available all-wheel drive means it’s ready for rain, snow, and whatever road conditions NJ comes up with (because winter is always full of surprises, as you know). Plus, with its sporty design and aggressive stance, the Hornet is practical and looks like it’s ready to pick a fight with traffic.

If your adventures go beyond the pavement, the Jeep Compass is the move. With available Jeep 4×4 systems and Selec-Terrain® traction management, the Compass eats snowstorms, gravel roads, and Shore traffic for breakfast. Inside, it’s all about comfort and tech, with a 10.1-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay®, and premium interior touches that make every drive feel first-class — even when you’re just headed to the grocery store.

If you love the efficiency and maneuverability of a compact car but want a little more power, space, and confidence on the road, the Dodge Hornet and Jeep Compass are perfect upgrades. Visit our Dodge Chrysler Jeep RAM dealership in New Jersey to see them for yourself.
