Comparison Review

Comfort
The Jeep Compass offers a bit more room for passengers in the back seat than the Volvo XC60. The Jeep Compass offers just a little more front head- and legroom than the Volvo XC60, making it a little more comfortable for the driver and front passenger.

Convenience
With the Volvo XC60, you will definitely be making fewer stops at the gas station than with the Jeep Compass, due to its tank size and fuel economy.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Clearly, the Jeep Compass is a better financial choice over the Volvo XC60, when considering MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the Jeep Compass is much slimmer than the Volvo XC60, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. If you go with the Jeep Compass, you'll have a much easier time finding a large enough space to park than you will with the Volvo XC60.

Handling
The Jeep Compass has a smaller turning radius than the Volvo XC60, allowing you to more easily maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
In terms of towing capacity, the Volvo XC60 is clearly the choice over the Jeep Compass for pulling heavy loads. The Jeep Compass has a little less horsepower than the Volvo XC60.

Powertrain
With its lower torque engine, the Jeep Compass doesn't do as good a job transmitting power to its wheels as the Volvo XC60.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Jeep Compass and the Volvo XC60. The Jeep Compass has less cargo space than the Volvo XC60, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
