The Australian division of US car-maker Jeep has announced its plans to launch two hybrid versions of the Compass small SUV in local showrooms next year – while the existing petrol and turbo-diesel engines will be discontinued.
In a media statement, Jeep said it intends to bring the Compass e-Hybrid mild-hybrid and Compass 4xe plug-in hybrid (PHEV) to Australia in the first half of 2024 (January to June inclusive).
The introduction of the Compass hybrids will result in the small SUV’s 2.4-litre four-cylinder petrol and 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo-diesel engines bein
