It’s about time for a serious talk about small crossovers and SUVs.
Let's start with the Jeep Renegade. There is a notion that small SUVs are not capable of doing the same job as the rest of the Jeep lineup. Think again!
The Renegade is full of surprises.
The outside may look small and boxy but take a good look all around. That is from a revised version of Jeep’s signature seven-slot grille up front with round headlights. Those taillights look like they are right out of the Wrangler. The shape has familiar lines tracing back throughout its history. To let the crisp air in, there is an optional MySky roof that starts with a large glass panel that slides open and can be completely removed for optimal fresh air.
Step inside and there are more surprises waiting. The upright roof was made for more headroom. The cabin is surprisingly roomy for four or five people, as well as carrying their gear on an adventure. Cargo is expandable with an adjustable floor in the back along with the front passenger seat folding flat for longer items. The instrument panel is customizable for look and information needed to help the driver stay informed. Up front, the classic yet modern JEEP look and feel comes alive – combining soft and rugged elements throughout the cabin. Right in the middle is an optional UConnect touchscreen that includes a Bluetooth connection for hands-free phone use and a host of infotainment options.
There is a choice of two engines. Standard is the 2.4-liter Tigershark Multiair 2 four-cylinder with 180 horsepower and 175 lb-ft of torque. New for 2019 is a 1.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. Mated to a six-speed manual transmission, the turbo option has 177 horsepower and 210 pound-feet of torque. Both engines come with a nine-speed automatic transmission. Renegades offer both front-wheel drive (4x2) and four-wheel drive (4x4). With four-wheel drive, the Select-Terrain system can dial up the right traction settings for the conditions the Renegade is put through. Ground clearance is 8.7 inches with wheel articulation of 8.1 inches – optimal for getting away from the road.
The Renegade starts at $22,025.
