2015 Jeep Renegade

3.5

Posted On: February 8, 2024

My favorite car I've ever driven

Pros

It gives me the feel of driving a larger car without the bulk, It's very unique looking especially the trailhawk version that I have

Cons

Every so often my radio screen restarts itself, I'm not a fan of the light colored headliner


After going from a large suv to driving a couple small sedans, this is the perfect sweet spot in the middle. The gas mileage is decent and it's gotten me through several snow storms with ease. This is by far my favorite vehicle that I've owned and for the first time in my life I'm not eager about trading it but anxious because I don't want that day to come. I've grown very attached to it.

Interior
7.9/10


The interior of the Jeep Renegade doesn’t base its design on style and attractiveness, rather it focuses on the practicality and usefulness of the interior spaces. The cabin seems spacious and is filled with all the standard technologies as one would expect from an SUV. The cabin is made up of cloth and refined plastic which looks minimalist and not dull. 

The Jeep Renegade moreover, includes cloth upholstery. The higher trims are offered in leather upholstery. The 2015 Jeep Renegade can easily accommodate 5 passengers with maximum comfort. The design of the cabin makes sense here as it attempts to offer the maximum comfortable space to each individual occupant.

Exterior
7.0/10


It has been speculated that the exterior of the 2015 Jeep Renegade neatly split the difference between tough and cute while keeping the undeniable essence of the Jeep lines intact. The design of the 2015 Jeep Renegade makes it look like a traditional jeep that is all set to attract young buyers. 

The exterior includes a tall, slab-sided, and upright little utility with some of the details deliberately oversized to emphasize its heritage. At the front, a traditional seven-slot vertical Jeep grille is flanked by large round headlights. Overall, the size of the Renegade along with its dimensions makes it appear brutish yet uptight.
