About 2020 Jeep Renegade


3.7

Overall Rating

The Jeep Renegade draws some serious styling hints from its elder siblings like the Jeep Wrangler and the Jeep Cherokee. 

Considering the ever-growing density of vehicles on the freeways, buying big SUVs don't make much sense now. Consumers need a better proposition than just extravagantly sized SUVs. Jeep - a brand that has gradually crawled up to become a synonym for hardcore off-roading capabilities, has found an interesting solution to this dilemma. As a result, in 2017, came the littlest Jeep ever - The Jeep Renegade. A toned-down version of the Jeep Compass, packed with utilitarian abilities, compact dimensions, and a juicy price tag which is hard to say no to. 

The 2020 Jeep Renegade is the most affordable off-roader currently on sale in the market. With just a handful of features and dated technology on the inside, the Renegade won't really pop your eyes out with gimmicks or gadgets. It is a purpose-built vehicle that means pure business. Take it to a rocky trail and you'll be surprised to see this bunny hop over the obstacles without breaking a sweat. This is what the Renegade is, just utility, no drama. And that means fewer tantrums for maintenance. To sum it all up - hard to say no to, indeed!

According to us, you should go for the Trailhawk variant as it gets the 1.3L turbo engine as standard which happens to be more refined and rapid than the stock 2.4L i4 engine. Moreover, the Trailhawk variant’s enhanced off-roading capabilities provide you with a much worthy “Jeep” vibe than any other model.

Pricing and Features
6.5/10


The Jeep Renegade is segregated into 7 different avatars. Not just on the equipment front, but each trim comes with its own set of specialties. The Trailhawk and the newly introduced trim - Upland, feature a different powertrain than the rest of the lineup. While the lower trims of can be had as a 2WD variant, the Trailhawk and the Upland bring 4WD as standard. Apart from this, the latter two trims of the Renegade can also be mated to a 1.3L motor which is more frugal yet powerful than the standard offering. 

As you move up the trim ladder, the aesthetics of the car keep shifting from a true-blue utilitarian all the way to a fancy, fully-loaded sub-compact SUV. Jeep also offers a few optional features, the compatibility of which depends on the trim you pick. It may not necessarily be welcoming to the trim you choose.

The undermentioned trims are the limited edition variants of the Jeep Renegade that are supposedly meant to be discontinued in the following production years.

We recommend

The Trailhawk variant ensures the availability of all the features along with the new 1.3L motor which feels more punchy than the standard engine. Hence, the Trailhawk is the perfect Renegade to showcase the abilities of a true Jeep.

Engine and Performance
7.0/10


Do not take the Renegade to be less than any other typical Jeep. It has been blessed with a trustworthy 2.4L, naturally aspirated, inline-4 unit that pumps out 180 horses. Its 175 lb-ft of torque might sound impressive on paper, but in person, you would end up gasping for power while executing overtakes. Fortunately, for an additional premium of $1,500, you can get your Jeep spec'd to drive all four wheels instead of just two. This really helps in making the Renegade slightly more eager to get off the line. However, the base engine we’d say is more of a miss than a hit for the Jeep Renegade, owing to its laggy response and timid sprinting capabilities. 

Nevertheless, for the performance-hungry lot, Jeep has made provisions to quench your thirst as well. If you pick either of the Limited or Trailhawk editions, the 2.4L motor gets replaced by a 1.3L, turbocharged, inline-4 motor that brings the Renegade back into the game with its stupendous power delivery. The ones picking the Sport or Lattitude trims get the luxury of choosing either one of the aforementioned powertrains as well. We really liked the way this motor behaved under testing. It has ample power available right on tap and can push the Renegade into the triple-digit speeds with a big smile.

The Jeep Renegade, for both the engines, employs a 9-speed automatic transmission, that transmits the power to the front wheels as standard. As mentioned already, you can get this gearbox to drive all four wheels too. However, the closely placed gear ratios and the sluggish response from the gearbox translate to a disappointing experience when driving spiritedly. We believe that the 1.3L motor on the top models could do with a better set of gears in order to unlock the full potential of the powertrain.

The Mazda CX-3 rakes in the third spot with 146 horses, leading them is the Ford Escape with 168 ponies and 170 lb.ft. of torque. The Jeep Renegade seems the heavyweight champion of this comparison, leading the way with 180 hp and 174 lb.-ft. Of torque; but is the Jeep Renegade really the fastest? Let’s find out...

How fast is the Jeep Renegade?

The Jeep Renegade’s stock 2.4L engine will take no offense if you call it the epitome of coarseness, cause it really is one! 

 The stock 2.4L engine offered in the Jeep Renegade generates reasonable power for a subcompact sedan but is just too unrefined. The engine is noisy and can take the Renegade from 0-60 in 9 seconds, which is pretty lousy.

The optional 1.3L turbo engine is not a big leap for the Renegade either. The engine generates 177 hp, which is less than the stock’s 180, but accrediting to its additional 25 lb.-ft. Of torque, which develops in a lower rev range, it can bring down the Jeep Renegade 0-60 time to 7.8 seconds.

The Jeep Renegade seemed like an ultimate performing car with great power figures in the power comparison, but one check at the reality and the Renegade is weighing heavy on the disappointment scale. The ride is one of the most atrocious performers in the 0-60, taking a beating from rivals such as the Ford Escape and the Mazda CX-3.

What about the braking performance of the Jeep Renegade?

The Jeep Renegade does fine in terms of braking. The 2020 Renegade comes with Active Braking and automatic emergency braking that makes the ride a safe halter. The ride posts shorter-than-average distances in emergency braking tests and there is no sign of any fade to it.

The pedal feels firm and has a short-stroke that makes it easier to leash the Jeep Renegade in tight traffic situations, and works effectively in routine city driving.

The Jeep Renegade is one of the heaviest vehicles of this segment, and yet it posts a 60-0 braking distance figure of 126 ft. which is a respectable number. The Ford Escape performs exceptionally well in the braking test, with the highest curb weight and the lowest 60-0 distance.

What about its driving dynamics?

The Jeep Renegade is not built to hustle on all and no roads, like other offerings from the company, yet the car does not disappoint you with its driving dynamics. You will be as glad to drive the Renegade on the city streets just as on the rough territories, thanks to its relaxed and composed handling. It doesn't incline toward sides while cornering and feels lithe. With regard to the trims, the Latitude offers a keener and more captivating drive than the Trailhawk.

 The steering wheel on the Renegade feels just appropriately weighted and gives the driver an average measure of feedback. The steering wheel feels connected to the road most of the time and is rapid to respond to driver inputs. 

There is little or no body-roll while the Renegade attacks some corners, which comes as a jolt, considering the ride’s boxy shape and upright stature. The Trailhawk model further induces upgrades such as the turbocharged engine, an AWD configuration that splits the torque 50/50 front to rear, 20:1 crawl ratio, hill descent control, a taller ride height, and more ground clearance, that make the Jeep Renegade Trailhawk a competent off-roader. 

Fuel Economy
6.0/10


The Jeep Renegade offers better than average execution for the sort of engine it accompanies. However, the MPG figures for the ride take a hit while accomplishing that level of performance. The Renegade with the stock 2.4L 4-cylinder inline has an EPA rating of 22 mpg in the city, 30 on the highways and 25 combined with both front and all-wheel drive. While the 1.3-liter turbo-4 offers 21/29/24 mpg with AWD and 22/30/25 mpg with front-wheel drive.

The MPG figures are not the only downside with the Jeep Renegade. The fuel tank capacity for the ride is also the smallest in this comparison. A poor fuel economy and a small fuel tank have a direct implication on the Jeep Renegade’s city and highway range.

If fuel efficiency is your thing, then the Mazda CX-3 is the tailor-made match for you. The Mazda CX-3 offers a combined MPG of 31, which is the greatest in this segment. The Honda HR-V makes the closest possible chase with a 28 combined MPG. 

Interior
8.0/10


The Jeep Renegade, on the inside, fails to deliver it big. The cabin layout of the Renegade feels somewhat unappealing and impractical at the same time. Starting up front, the front row of seats is pretty comfortable, with decent bolstering and cushioning. The rear seats, however, disappoint you with a very squeezed up leg space, making it an uncomfortable spot to be in for long-hour journeys. 

The quality of the materials used inside the Jeep Renegade is decent with lots of soft-touch plastic and high-quality upholstery. The seating position is more towards the upright side, but the availability of excellent headroom makes this seating position a rather commanding one, providing great visibility with a broad view ahead.

The one aspect of the Jeep Renegade’s interior, which needs to be corrected as soon as possible is the cabin noise. The stock 2.4L engine is so unrefined that even at a speed of 70 mph, it starts yelping, transmitting all that noise to the cabin. Moreover, the ride’s boxy shape also contributes to the cabin noise.

Does it come loaded with tech inside?

The Jeep Renegade employs the Fiat Chrysler’s Uconnect system as it’s focal infotainment panel. The Uconnect infotainment system is one of the most user-friendly infotainment arrangements available in the market. It responds quickly to commands and it is easy to navigate through the menu. While the base model of the Jeep Renegade has a standard 5-inch screen, a 7.0-inch and 8.4-inch screen are also on offer. 

Some other features of the Jeep Renegade’s infotainment panel are: 

  • Siri, Apple Car Play, Android Auto Compatibility
  • SiriusXM Guardian with Voice Command
  • 7 Full-Color Digital Cluster Display
  • 9 Speaker Beats Audio System
  • Bluetooth and USB connectivity

What about utility?

The Jeep Renegade offers just 18.5 cubic feet of storage space at it’s back. This figure can be matched even by some compact sedans and does not seem justified at all in a car as boxy as the Jeep Renegade. 

The 18.5 cubic feet of cargo space can mushroom to 50.8 cubic feet once the rear seats are folded. There is also an optional front passenger seat folding available which lets you carry long objects.

Exterior
7.0/10


The 2019 Renegade is profoundly a Jeep with its round front light, seven-space grilles, and a rocky frame of mind. It is a genuine Jeep and from outside it gives you the vibe of the DNA that it conveys from the famous Wrangler and extravagant Grand Cherokee. The Renegade looks more urban as opposed to retro with a plenitude of dark trim and curved surfacing.

There is some cool stuff to discuss with regards to the outside that the Renegade brags. Like the X-highlighted in its taillight is gotten from World War-II-period armed force jerrycans. The wheels have been squared-off giving it a progressively tough look and the significant distinction between trims is that Sports models have flat black trim while the Limited model features a contrasting dark rooftop.

The Jeep Renegade is one of the heaviest and the shortest ride of this segment, a fact which bolsters its boxy-shape ideology. Moreover, the Jeep Renegade has the best-in-class ground clearance that lends it a true-Blu SUV vibe.

What are those eye-catching features?

Some of the most prominent exterior features on the Jeep Renegade are: 

  • Fog lamps
  • Deep Tinted Rear Glass
  • Wrap around black roof
  • 18 Aluminum Polished Granite Crystal Wheels
  • Heated Exterior Mirrors
  • Windshield Wiper De-icer
  • HID Projector LED Headlamps with optional LED Units

Safety
8.8/10


The Jeep Renegade is yet to be fully tested for the year 2020, however, some scores have been updated for the ride. For 2020, the Renegade still can't seem to be completely crash tried. The main scores that exist so far are a four-star frontal crash and a three-star rollover rating, both shoddy from the federal government. The IIHS has likewise given the Renegade an "Acceptable" rating for the Small front-overlap test, yet its headlights get a "Poor" tag. 

  • 7 Airbags
  • Lane Departure Warning with Lane Keep Assist
  • Full-Speed Forward Collision Warning with Active Braking
  • Blind Spot Monitoring System
  • Rear Park Assist System
  • Rear Cross Path Detection
  • Rear Back up Camera
  • Auto High Beam Headlamps

Jeep Renegade vs. Honda HR-V

The Honda HR-V is one of the cheapest set of wheels this segment has to offer. However, price is not the only thing the HR-V is less at. Fitted with a 1.8L SOHC i-VTEC I4 engine, the HR-V produces just 141 hp, which is the lowest in the segment. However, with a decent fuel economy and great cargo space, the HR-V makes for an ideal family ferry. 

Jeep Renegade vs. Ford Escape

From manufacturing great power to boasting the best-in-class fuel economy while at the same time providing generous passenger and cargo space, tell us a thing that the Ford Escape can’t do. Priced at $25,885 the Ford Escape is the best value for your buck in this compact SUV segment. 

Final Verdict
8.0/10


Just as much as we hate to say this, but the Renegade is much of a disappointment in the disguise of a Jeep. The ride is unbelievably slow, much of a fuel-guzzler, and does not score any good on the utility aspect as well. The Trailhawk version though is a bit off-road capable, but other than that, the Jeep Renegade is not a very pleasing ride to be in. All in all, we’ll say that for this much money, you get the Jeep badge and the Jeep silhouette in the form of the Renegade but you are not getting a “Jeep”.
