2017 Jeep Renegade - Great little SUV
The Jeep Renegade is an excellent little SUV. It has great driver and front passenger ergonomics, and has a very comfortable ride. Rear passenger legroom is somewhat small when compared to other small SUVs, but headroom is good for all occupants. The four-wheel drive system means the Jeep handles exceptionally well, and it is very nimble. The build quality on this Jeep is quite good, with no inferior feeling dash or interior materials. The cargo space is ample for a small SUV, and rear seats fold almost entirely flat to increase rear cargo space. The engine can be a bit loud at times, but acceleration is pleasant around town.

The Jeep Renegade is an excellent little SUV. It has great driver and front passenger ergonomics, and has a very comfortable ride. Rear passenger legroom is somewhat small when compared to other small SUVs, but headroom is good for all occupants. The four-wheel drive system means the Jeep handles exceptionally well, and it is very nimble. The build quality on this Jeep is quite good, with no inferior feeling dash or interior materials. The cargo space is ample for a small SUV, and rear seats fold almost entirely flat to increase rear cargo space. The engine can be a bit loud at times, but acceleration is pleasant around town. The brakes feel strong, and steering is zippy for an SUV. The gas mileage is average, however, and highway speed acceleration is not strong. The styling is bold, with typical Jeep touches to tie in with the brand identity. The Jeep Renegade is a capable off-road vehicle, although not as "trail tough" as the Jeep Wrangler. Towing capacity, even when properly equipped, is only 2,000 lbs. The available infotainment options are acceptable, and the audio system has average sound quality. Most entertainment vehicle functions are controlled through the bright and easy to use touch-screen interface. The Jeep Renegade has available push-start ignition, keyless entry, and theft alarm systems. Color choices are limited, although distinctive. Overall, the Jeep Renegade is a great value for your money.
During a very heavy winter storm, I was able to count on my Jeep Renegade to safely get me where I was going. The AWD system and respectable ground clearance allowed me to forge ahead through deep snow that left other vehicles stuck and waiting for tow trucks.

2017 Jeep Renegade - A great, dependable car
I have only minor complaints about the car. It has always worked great for me. I love all the features that came with the car, and the car itself was surprisingly affordable. I also love owning a smaller sport utility vehicle because it allows me to carry a decent amount of cargo, without the feeling of driving a massive vehicle around that I have little control over.

I have had many fun memories with this vehicle even in the short amount of time I have owned it. For example, driving myself and a group of work friends to and from lunch. Or taking my dog through a car wash in my car.

One of my favorite aspects of the vehicle are all the extra features that it came with. For example, the car came equipped with automatic windshield wipers, which automatically detect rain on the windshield and activate. The radio also includes a feature that you can turn on where the volume of the radio increases as the speed of the vehicle increases so you never have to worry about the sound of the vehicle overpowering your music. I am also a fan of the four-wheel drive on such an affordable vehicle.

I only have very minor complaints about the vehicle. For example, it could use slightly more power in the engine. It is not very quick in the acceleration department, so when you are trying to merge onto a fast moving highway, things can get a little difficult. Also, just recently, I experienced an issue with one of the tire pressure sensors when an alert went off in the car saying that one of the tires was low on air pressure. However, the alert corrected itself after a few seconds since the tire wasn't actually low. That was the first time I had ever experienced any sort of mechanical is... (more)
