We can’t do a true Compass vs. Cherokee comparison without talking price. That’s understandably an important factor to many of our Amityville customers.

But that’s not the only way you save with the Compass, as it has lower gas mileage, as well. Of course, you’ll want to check out our offers and incentives to make sure you’re getting the best deal.
