How much is insurance on a Jeep Compass?

A 2024 Jeep Compass runs about $2,040 a year for a typical 45-year-old, $100 more than an average car of the same age: more injury claims and more damage to others' property outweigh lower non-crash losses and lower crash-repair losses. Putting a new 16-year-old on a family policy with the Compass adds about $1,350 a year (#25 of 26 small SUVs we compare).

2024 Jeep Compass (Compass 4WD), national average

about $2,040 a year (about $170 a month)

Estimated range: $1,500–$2,750. Actual quotes can fall outside it.

An average car of the same age (what HLDI's 2022–24 results measure against) runs about $1,940 a year. A used 2013 Compass drops to about $1,730 (see the table below).

Priced for the 2024 Compass 4WD, the newest year covered by HLDI's loss data (2022–24 models), for a 45-year-old driver with a clean record and full coverage. HLDI's results combine drivers of all ages. We apply them to one example driver (a 45-year-old with a clean record) so pages are comparable; they aren't specific to 45-year-olds. Each state raises or lowers every car's price by the same percentage, so the Compass's rank is the same in every state.

Why the Jeep Compass costs what it does

What HLDI reports (2022–24 models, all drivers combined)

The Highway Loss Data Institute (HLDI) compares each model's insurance losses with an average car's. For the Jeep Compass 4dr 4WD, on HLDI's scale where 100 is an average car and lower is better, it reports 81 for crash repairs, 60 for non-crash damage, 129 for damage to others' property, and 145 for injury claims.

What we estimate that means for price

Prices move less than loss results do: a car's loss record is only one of many things insurers weigh, and each weighs it differently. So we count only part of HLDI's difference. Combining crash repairs and non-crash damage (weighted about 71% and 29%, the share each makes up of industry claim costs), the Compass comes out about 25% better than average. We count about 40% of that difference, so the part of the bill that fixes the car is about 10% less than average: about $860 a year vs $950. On the liability side, damage to others and injury claims combine to about 38% worse than average. We count about half, so that part is about 20% more: $1,190 a year vs $990.

How the math works

In EPA size classes, the Compass is a small SUV (gas-powered). In Highway Loss Data Institute loss tables, the Jeep Compass is benchmarked against small SUVs.

A used Jeep Compass, by model year

One model year per age group. Liability only: no coverage for the car itself. Teen columns: a new 16-year-old. Each row uses the HLDI report that covers that model year.

Our catalog covers the Jeep Compass across model years 2006–2027. Full coverage on a used 2013 Compass (13 or more years old) runs about $1,730 a year, $310 less than on a 2024. Dropping collision and comprehensive on that 2013 brings liability-only coverage to about $1,190 a year. Each photo shows that year's generation of the car. Photo credits.

For the 2024 Jeep Compass, our catalog lists the Compass 4WD configuration at about $2,040 a year.

On a policy of their own with a 2024 Jeep Compass, a 22–25-year-old pays about $2,660 a year ($610 more than a 45-year-old), a 26–39-year-old about $2,270, and a driver 65 and older about $2,150.

Adding a 16-year-old with a Jeep Compass

A new driver costs more with any car, and more than usual with the Jeep Compass: adding a 16-year-old raises the family bill by about $1,350 a year ($115 a month), $70 more than adding a teen with an average car of the same age. A separate policy in the 16-year-old's own name runs about $5,870 a year ($4,520 more than adding them to the family policy).

For adding a teen driver, the Jeep Compass ranks 37th most expensive out of all 121 models we track. Stepping down to a used 2013 Compass (13 or more years old) brings the teen add-on to about $1,140 a year.

That increase is how much the family bill goes up with a new 16-year-old driving this car. Cheapest cars to insure for a teen.

Similar small SUVs

Among these 26 small SUVs, the Jeep Compass is the 2nd most expensive to insure. Right next to it are the Kia EV6 (about $2,030 a year) and the Mitsubishi Outlander (about $2,070).
