In fact, Chevrolet announced the death of the venerable Impala, an American icon since 1958. This month we blur the line between the crossover and sedan. [/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.0.47″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_image admin_label=”Jeep compass image” src=”http://ticket-1994427.inwheeltime.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/2017-Jeep-Compass-VLP-Hero-Trailhawk.jpg.image_.1440.jpg” _builder_version=”3.0.69″ /][et_pb_divider _builder_version=”3.0.69″ /][et_pb_text admin_label=”Jeep Compass Text” _builder_version=”3.0.69″] Jeep Compass The all-new 2017 Compass is a completely redesigned crossover in the Jeep lineup that is a marked improvement over the outgoing model. Its exterior design is a nod to its larger sibling, the Grand Cherokee, with its iconic 7-slot grille. There are 4 trim levels from which to choose, Sport, Latitude, Limited and the off-roader model, Trailhawk. The higher up the food chain you go, the more you get. We love the red trim bits on the dash that gave our Trailhawk the pizzazz others in its class wish they could offer. The Uconnect infotainment system is among the best on any brand’s lot. Power is generated by a 180-horsepower, 2.4-liter, 4-cylinder engine that delivers up to 31-MPG when couple to a 6-speed manual transmission. The 9-speed automatic is great for fuel mileage but tends to hunt for gears on the highway. Whether delivering the kids to school and soccer practice or making runs to the grocery store, this just may be your new ride. Starts at $25,655.

If you like sports car swagger and handling agility that is also capable of swallowing loads of school projects, backpacks and sports equipment and the crossover is just a little too big, here’s your do-all. The Cruze is equipped with a 153-horsepower 1.4-liter turbo 4-cylinder engine the turns the front wheels through a 6-speed automatic transmission. A diesel powerplant and manual transmission are also available. The 2017 Cruze looks as if it just rolled out of the wind tunnel, with its low-slung front facia, laid-back windshield and overall aerodynamic swoosh. The interior design team gets an A-plus from us with its sculpted dash, attention to detail and available contrasting color pairings, plus, you can still get two in the backseat. The infotainment system is spot-on featuring ease of use and functionality. Responsive steering and sporty handling complete the package. Comes in 4 trim levels and is priced beginning at $22,190. So, which of these are you ready to graduate to? [/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]
