Seattle Jeep dealer, Jeep of Smokey Point, is excited to announce that the 2011 Jeep Compass has officially arrived at for Seattle drivers.

The new and redesigned 2011 Jeep Compass offers drivers amazing fuel economy, unsurpassed by other 4x4s on the market, along with the classic off-road capability that Jeep SUV’s are known for.

The Compass and Latitude models are built with a standard 2.0-liter World Engine that provides 158 horsepower and 141 lb.-ft. of torque coupled with the continuously variable transmission (CVT2). Even better, when paired with the five-speed manual transmission, the 2011 Jeep Compass delivers 23 city miles per gallon and 29 highway miles per gallon – fuel economy that is unsurpassed in the compact SUV segment.

A stylish and sophisticated design makes the 2011 Jeep Compass hard to ignore.

The exterior is highlighted with a new hood, new front fenders and other improvements to make the 2011 Compass a real head turner on the road.

The interior is more refined, with upgrades like new soft touch front-door trim panels with a padded upper surface and a new center armrest. The new Jeep steering wheel is built with integrated controls that allow the driver to operate the radio, cruise control, available hands free phone and other vehicle functions while keeping their hands on the wheel and their eyes on the road. Premium cloth is also new, and lines the comfortable bucket seats.

In addition, the 2011 Compass is packed with standard features that make the vehicle as convenient and comfortable as possible for drivers. Air conditioning, power locks and windows, heated exterior mirrors, keyless entry and cruise control all come standard on every Compass model.

Safety is also a standard feature on the new 2011 Jeep Compass; each vehicle is packed with more than 30 safety and security features, like side-curtain air bags, electronic stability control and electronic roll mitigation. Hill-start Assist is available when drivers choose a manual transmission. Front-seat mounted side airbags are also available.

With the complete package the 2011 Jeep Compass in Seattle offers – fuel economy, style, and legendary Jeep capability – you’ll want to come down to the leading Seattle Jeep dealer today to experience the quality for yourself. Visit Jeep of Smokey Point to take one of our new 2011 Compass SUV’s for a test drive, or speak with our knowledgeable staff about everything this compact-SUV has to offer by calling (206) 331-4311.

Rairdon Auto Group’s Jeep dealership in Seattle is excited to hear about the all new Jeep Camper that is coming in August. The Chrysler Group’s Jeep and Mopar are helping off-road enthusiasts set up camp and will be the first in the industry to offer customers off-road camper trailers.

“The Jeep brand is widely known for providing its customers with a sense of freedom and adventure, with a mix of vehicles to take them wherever they want to go,” said Mike Manley, President and Chief Executive Officer – Jeep Brand, Chrysler Group LLC. “Thanks to our friends at Mopar, the Jeep experience may now be taken to a new level. Families may hook up an off-road Jeep camper to their capable Jeep vehicle and enjoy an ultimate outdoor adventure that no other manufacturer can offer.”

Designed to meet off-road capabilities of Jeep 4×4 vehicles, Jeep Trail and Extreme Trail campers incorporate Jeep Wrangler’s rugged design cues, including Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 17-inch cast-aluminum wheels (with 5-lug by 5-inch bolt pattern to utilize most Jeep vehicles’ spare tire), taillights, fender flares, rear bumper (Trail Edition camper only), badging and hood-tie downs. In August, both Jeep camper trailers may be ordered at local Jeep dealers through Mopar®, Chrysler Group LLC’s service, parts and customer-care brand.

“At Mopar, we are always looking for opportunities to support and add value to our Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Ram Truck brands, and this is a great example of how we can do that,” said Pietro Gorlier, President and Chief Executive Officer – Mopar Service, Parts and Customer Care. “Our trailers are specifically designed and engineered to meet strict capability requirements of Jeep. Mopar will continue to offer features that enhance the customer’s experience with our brands and our vehicles.”

Seattle Jeep Trail Edition Camper for Casual Camping

The all-new Jeep Extreme Trail Edition camper is designed to handle maximum off-road capability that hard-core off-road enthusiasts crave, with additional trail equipment to go anywhere and do anything.

Starting with the Jeep Trail Edition camper’s off-road engineered suspension, the Jeep Extreme Trail Edition camper ups the ante with a heavy-duty frame, more ground clearance (15 inches) and a full-underbody skid plate. Larger 35-inch BF Goodrich Mud Terrain tires provide a beefier trail-ready aesthetic and sit below black diamond-plated aluminum fenders. These unique design fenders are mounted higher on the Jeep Extreme Trail Edition camper to accommodate up to 37-inch tires for maximum off-road capability. Improving the standard 2-inch trailer-hitch ball is an available heavy-duty pintle hitch with a 360-degree rotating axis for maximum off-road maneuvering and on-trail articulation.
