2010 Jeep Patriot
The Jeep Patriot offers off-road capability in a compact SUV with a capable four-cylinder engine that gets an EPA-rated 23/28 mpg. The suspension is stable and comfortable, and cargo capacity is useful because all the passenger seats can easily fold flat. Those positives are offset by build quality that is not the best and an interior with a somewhat plastic feel to it.
