Moreover, this compact SUV comes loaded with incredible performance features, including the Selec-Terrain Traction Management System and Jeep 4×4 Systems, offering you the utmost confidence to conquer every terrain, even the most demanding ones.
• 2025 VW Taos: In contrast, the Taos is powered by a 1.5-litre Turbocharged engine, outputting 174 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque (less than what you get with the Compass.
