Design & Style

Looking at the exterior dimensions of these vehicles, the 2023 Ford Escape is longer, wider and taller than that of the 2023 Jeep Compass. The Ford has a cargo space measuring 37.5 cubic feet when all seats are in use, better than that of the Jeep's standard cargo configuration of 27.2 cubic feet.

When looking inside, the Jeep Compass feels more upscale than its predecessors, thus giving it an edge. There are soft plastics inside too. For the 2023 Ford Escape, expect better-quality materials when compared to that of the Jeep. This one sits five people comfortably on both rows. The Compass limits rear visibility, and can be a bit cramped for longer rides, especially for those occupying rear seats.

Technology & Safety

Using the SYNC infotainment system with a 4.2-inch infotainment display, the 2023 Ford Escape allows to upgrade the screen to have an eight-inch touch configuration plus an option to add a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster. It has six speakers, multiple USB ports, and a WiFi hot spot included as part of the standard amenities. Meanwhile, its list of standard driver aids includes blind spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert, lane keep assist, and lane departure warning.

For the Jeep Compass' Uconnect infotainment interface, it uses an 8.4-inch touch screen display. Wireless versions of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are also standard to the ride. It misses on the driver drowsiness monitoring which the Ford Escape offers as a standard for its users.

Performance

In terms of fuel efficiency, you get more with the 2023 Ford Escape as it rates 28 mpg in the city and 24 mpg on the highway. That of the Compass only reaches up to 22 mpg for city driving and 31 mpg for highway driving. It also scores 181 horsepower for its inline-three engine, much better than the Compass' 177-hp result for its inline-four engine.

The Bottom Line

Ratings are equal for the Ford Escape and Jeep Compass 2023 versions when considering their design and style. When it comes to technologies, safety features, and engine performance, however, the Ford is a far winner. This makes it the winner of this compact SUV battle.
