Jeep Patriot Review, For Sale, Specs, Models & News in Australia

The Jeep Patriot was a mid-size SUV that previously sold alongside the Compass.

Although it competed in a highly contested segment, the Patriot did not sell in similar volumes to its rivals and was not renewed when the new-generation Jeep Compass arrived in Australia in late 2017.

Unlike some contemporary SUVs, the Patriot had a few systems to support off-road driving, despite being predominantly front-drive. This design choice was continued through to the Compass.

Rivals for the Patriot included the popular Subaru Forester, Nissan X-Trail and Toyota RAV4.

Jeep fans looking for something in a similar size-bracket can also choose from the larger mid-size Cherokee or smaller Renegade.
