Jeep Compass Depreciation & Resale Value

Jeep Compass keeps an estimated 66% of its original MSRP after 5 years — #121 of 530 cars VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.

Per VINdown's modeling, the Jeep Compass retains an estimated 66% of its original MSRP after five years, ranking #121 of 530 cars we track. That is 8 points above the 58% five-year average for SUV in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.

Most of the loss lands early: the Jeep Compass sheds about 11% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $29,550 it falls to around $19,473 by year five — a five-year loss near $10,077, about $5.52 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Jeep Compass bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
