New 2009 Model interior shots

[Rends]

Right from Allpar:





Thx to 93XJMOPARMAN

Looks like they rounded off a few corners, but I don't really see too many changes. I'm underwhelmed.

[Pepe]

Gosh! you were the first one Rends!
mmm....look at the difference in shape of A & B pillars between both pics.
Is the dashboard in pic #2 photoshopped?

[UPKEV]

Kind of like the more squared off corners of the previous pats. Everything about the patriot is square and I guess I liked the consistency.

In general though not really a hill of beans worth of difference.

One is a compass and one a patriot right?

first one must be a compass

ya, the second picture is kinda crude, it looks like the dash of the first picture photoshopped into an existing Patriot interior

Where on allpar did you find this?

[Rends]

I like the round airvents. Looks much more solid and not so cheap as the current one.
The door pin doesn´t stick out of the plastic like a nail anymore (first image).

The edges on top of the middle console are rounder and looks more 2008 than 1980

It´s hard to tell but are the 2 tone doors back like the 07 model ?

Is it only me or is the open glovebox different from the current one? It doesn´t look so deep.

Seems that the headrests are the same. Hey did you know that they were just rated good in a british insurany backend crashtest?

BTW:un4gtbl i found this in the news and rumor forum.

I can see that being a nice interior for the Compass since its more "rounded off" but too weird for the Patriot I think...

Thanks, I completely forgot that I was registered over there

Thanks for the exklusiv, Rends. The A-pillar in the first picture doesn't belong to a Patriot, that's for sure. And there are more differences in details between the 2 pictures, so I guess they belong to different cars.

Actually, what I expected was nothing. I'd like to think Jeep has far bigger issues than putting any effort and resources into a redesign of the Patriot's interior.

Gotta agree with the rest. The top looks like maybe the Compass and the bottom the Patriot? The pillar angle is much different between the two.

Also notice the center console in the lower picture looks exactly like the current Patriot center console with the ipod holder. I thought they were doing away with this and adding soft touch. It doesn't look like the center console in the pictures posted previously.

Something not quite right here.

Thanks for the pics, and keeping us informed.

It seems to be that the first image shows the 2009 Jeep Compass while the second shows a photoshopped 2008 Patriot with the new dashboard/middle console.
