If you have been interested in Jeeps, but haven’t yet made the leap to the gritty off-road lifestyle with which they are associated, the 2016 Renegade could prove to be the introduction you need. The Renegade takes classic Jeep elements and smooths out the edges, literally. The compact SUV’s rounded curves, circular headlights, and swooping windshield, combined with its diminutive size, softens Jeep’s traditional rugged style. The five seater Renegade looks and feels equal parts adventurous utility vehicle and sensible transport, and with what’s under the hood it plays both roles wonderfully.
The 1.4L 4 cylinder engine is capable of producing 180 horsepower, considerable relative to its size, and with the light frame and aerodynamic body design it achieves a respectable 31mpg on the highway. The 6 speed manual transmission assures that drivers will experience that classic Jeep feeling of controlled power when on the road. The Renegade comes standard with a 6.5 inch touchscreen with the Uconnect system, comfortable leather or cloth seating, and a maximum of 50.8 cubic feet of rear cargo storage. Many optional features such as a BeatsAudio™ Sound System, a My Sky® open-air dual-panel sunroof, and heated seating are available to enhance the driver’s experience.
Starting at just $17,995 the 2016 Jeep Renegade gives yet another reason for new drivers to enter the Jeep market. In every way, the Renegade makes Jeep more accessible. The SUV’s balance of power, comfort, and performance combine to make it an attractive offering for all types of people.
