2018 Jeep Renegade for Sale
Let's start with the obvious. The 2018 Jeep Renegade is about as adorable-looking as nearly 3,200 pounds of steel, rubber and plastic can get. But it's also playing in one of the fastest-growing, most intensely competitive segments. The subcompact crossover slice of the market appeals to small families who need a capable everyday companion, singles who crave a distinct image, and those who don't want to spend a lot of money.
The Renegade, which is built in Italy by Jeep's corporate brother Fiat, has a boxy shape that produces outstanding cabin room despite its diminutive exterior dimensions. And that box uses all the familiar Jeep design details to tie it into the brand's history. There is the signature seven-slot grille in front, old-school round headlights and square taillights, reminiscent of the early civilian Jeeps.
The Renegade is a bit more serious about life off-pavement than most of its direct competition. In Trailhawk trim it is available with a true four-wheel-drive system Jeep calls Active Drive Low. But even this version is not built strictly of the Rubicon vein. It can hold its own off-road, sure, yet this is not the Renegade's sole purpose. It is built around a traditional economy car unibody structure with the engine mounted transversely up front. In fact, the vehicle with which it shares most of its engineering, and an assembly plant, is the Fiat 500X. The Renegade should not be confused as a Wrangler substitute.
Two engines are offered in the Renegade. The first is a 1.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder rated at 160 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed manual transmission is standard with this engine. Higher-end trims get the non-turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder, rated at 180 hp and 175 lb-ft. A nine-speed automatic transmission is standard in these trims. Neither of these engine options is particularly exciting in daily driving situations, but both are suitable for their intended purposes.
Despite its small stature, the Renegade is not particularly efficient in terms of fuel economy. The base Renegade, equipped with front-wheel drive, manual transmission and the turbo 1.4-liter, is rated by the EPA at 26 mpg combined (24 city/31 highway). At the other extreme, the four-wheel-drive, automatic-equipped Renegade with the 2.4-liter engine gets 24 mpg combined (21 city/29 highway).
It is true the Renegade is space-efficient, but don't mistake that for being able to hold five adults in comfort. While headroom is plentiful, the back seat gets snug in every other direction, especially with three across. Beyond that, there is only so much space behind the second row to accommodate luggage. Still the Renegade offers a compelling alternative to a growing segment of compact SUVs.
Let Edmunds help you determine whether the 2018 Jeep Renegade is the perfect car for you.
