2022 Jeep Compass Summary

The Jeep Compass is something of a unicorn among the long list of small SUVs sold in Australia. It is now the only model in either the light or small-SUV category that is available with a diesel engine.

That diesel is found under the bonnet of just one variant – the rugged Trailhawk which is also the flagship of the range.

Aside from Suzuki’s adorable Jimny light SUV, the Compass Trailhawk is the only small SUV with some off-road ability.

After going on sale in Australia in late 2017, the second-generation Compass was overhauled as part of a mid-life update in 2021. Aside from subtle styling tweaks, the biggest change was a new multimedia system.

Has Jeep done enough to lift the Compass from an also-ran to a model that buyers should consider, or was the update too little, too late?

2022 GWM Haval H6 Summary

If there is one thing we've learned from the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid, it's that if you want to be top of the pops in the medium SUV segment, then you need an electrified powertrain.

And if there's one thing we've learned about Haval, it's that they're fast learners, which is why a new H6 Hybrid variant has already touched down in Australia, beating big-name brands like Hyundai and Mazda to the electrified mid-size SUV party in our market.

So, can the H6 Hybrid take it to the Toyota? Lets find out.
