Frankfurt Premiere: Jeep Patriot and Compass Concepts

Greetings from Camp Jeep! (NB: Frankfurt is an irony-free zone.) DCX's off-roading brand has unleashed two new concepts for the compact SUV segment. The Patriot is the sensible one, a rugged, flying brick shaped-SUV designed to holster a new 2.4-liter four (coming soon to a Mitsubishi and Hyundai near you). The Compass (pictured) is the Patriot's evil twin, a rally-style off-roader featuring enough bad-ass body cladding to kit out a Florida trailer park. Nineteen-inch wheels, a roof-mounted spoiler (Spoiler? I just met her!) and dual exhausts signal the Compass sporting direction.
