It looks alot more masculine than the current liberty-and i think it is a re-skinned nitro as far as I can tell.

The patriot is positioned under the liberty and under the wrangler. The compass is in a different category than the patriot. The Commander on the other hand is the top of the line.

So like this

Compass
Patriot
Liberty (is a replacement of the original Cherokee)
Wrangler (this is usually priced below the Liberty but if you outfit it with the rubicon package [i.e. locking diffs] it would be closer to grand cherokee price)
Grand Cherokee
Commander
