Jeep just made the bars on your phone irrelevant
Stellantis is bringing satellite 5G into a production Jeep Compass — and the off-road brand may have just rewritten the rules of in-car connectivity.
Stellantis is rolling out something that, a couple of years ago, only lived in tech-company slide decks. Satellite connectivity straight inside a car — not a concept, but a production Jeep Compass. The premiere is set for MOVE 2026 in London, running June 17—18 at the ExCeL London venue. And the Compass is the centerpiece.
The pitch is straightforward: regular mobile networks don’t reach everywhere, and 5G via satellite pushes coverage into places that have never really had it. For Jeep, the scenario is almost too on-brand — the marque has spent decades selling the idea of going beyond the pavement, where cell bars run out long before your patience does.
The second reveal is arguably bigger. The L4-Ready Platform is a turnkey foundation for Level 4 autonomous vehicles, and Stellantis is positioning it as the backbone for robotaxis. Hardware, software, integration — everything bundled into a single package so autonomous urban transport can launch faster.
On the stand, the company will also reveal who’s riding shotgun in this race. The partner list is short but loud: Bolt, NVIDIA, Pony.ai, Uber and Wayve.
Earlier, it was reported that Jeep has ended Compass sales in Australia.
