The Car Connection's Take

TCC Rating
6.0
5.2

TCC’s Bottom Line
The 2019 GMC Terrain is another contender for crossover shoppers’ consideration, but its high price and lack of active safety features keep it on the bench for now. The 2019 Jeep Compass stays true to the brand’s off-road formula, but bends toward usability rather than capability.
