Jeep Compass 2026 Blackhawk flex‑fuel debut and €14,000 price gap versus Omoda 5

Stellantis unveiled the 2026 Jeep Compass Blackhawk in Brazil with a new flex‑fuel system that allows the 2.0 L turbo engine to run on ethanol. Power and torque remain at 272 hp and 40.9 kg·m, with a 0‑100 km/h time of 6.3 seconds. Fuel consumption drops to 6 km/l in the city and 7.6 km/l on highways with ethanol, versus 8.5 km/l and 11 km/l on gasoline. The model is priced at R$ 274,290 and includes upgraded fuel pumps, injectors, ignition plugs and a reinforced turbo to handle ethanol’s corrosiveness.

A separate market comparison shows the entry‑level Jeep Compass priced at €40,900 in Europe, equipped with a 1.2 L turbo‑e‑Hybrid delivering 145 hp and a suite of ADAS features. The Chinese‑made Omoda 5 starts at €26,900 with a 147‑hp gasoline engine, while its full‑hybrid version costs €28,500 and offers 224 hp and lower fuel consumption (about 5 l/100 km). The price difference between the two SUVs is roughly €14,000, with the Jeep positioned as a premium option and the Omoda offering a richer standard equipment list at a lower price.
