- New small Jeep here now -
priced from $29,500*
- Made by Fiat in Melfi (Italy) -
along with the Fiat 500 X
The all-new Jeep Renegade has arrived, offering Australian customers three engine options and a host of innovative
safety and advanced technology offerings.
The result is a small SUV that is 'city-sized' yet not confined to an urban environment.
Interior
The all-new Jeep Renegade interior features a rugged and energetic appearance that builds upon Jeep’s brand heritage:
Precisely crafted detail, innovative and high-quality colour and material appointments - inspired by extreme sports gear
and lifestyles – and state-of-the-art technology.
The interior of the Renegade has a distinctive form language which Jeep designers have titled “Tek-Tonic.” This new
design theme is defined by the intersections of soft and tactile forms with rugged and functional details.
Major surfaces such as the sculpted soft-touch instrument panel are intersected with bold functional elements like the
passenger grab handle.
Unique “protective clamp fasteners,” anodised design accents and inspired colours are derived from extreme sports
equipment, while the new “X” shapes inspired by the Jerry cans carried by the original 1941 Willys Jeep extend to the
roof and tail lamps to build upon the Renegade’s Tek-Tonic interior look.
And to make sure all of the needed passenger gear fits, the Renegade is designed with an efficient and flexible
interior package that includes a removable, reversible and height-adjustable cargo floor panel and fold-forward
front-passenger seat.

Renegade offers a unique open-air freedom with an optional 'My Sky' open-air roof system.
Manually removable front and rear panels with a power tilt/slide front panel, the segment-exclusive My Sky roof-panel
system quickly highlights the outdoors from inside the car.
Designed for convenience, the honeycomb fibreglass polyurethane roof panels are lightweight and stow neatly in the
rear cargo area.
For added design detail, the My Sky roof system features an embossed “X” stamped into the roof that exudes strength
and plays on the brand’s utilitarian history.
Driving dynamics
Designed and engineered to deliver both legendary Jeep capability and outstanding on-road dynamics, the Renegade is
the first small SUV from FCA to use the all-new “small-wide 4x4 architecture.”
Extensive use of advanced steels, composites and advanced computer-impact simulations enable the Renegade’s
architecture to deliver torsional stiffness, along with the durability required for Trail Rated adventures.
Best-in-class off-road capability thanks to new 4x4 system
Jeep Renegade Trailhawk offers the most advanced and intelligent 4x4 system in its class to deliver off-road
capability.
Innovation is also at the forefront of any new Jeep vehicle, and the Renegade is the first small SUV to feature a
disconnecting rear axle and power take-off unit (PTU) – all to provide the Jeep Renegade Trailhawk with enhanced fuel
economy. The system instantly engages when 4x4 traction is needed.
The Renegade Trailhawk is also the first Jeep to integrate Koni’s frequency selective damping (FSD) front and rear
strut system. This damping system enables the Renegade to deliver appropriate road-holding and handling
characteristics.
Jeep Active Drive Low – class-exclusive full-time 4x4 system with 20:1 crawl ratio
Jeep Active Drive Low includes the Jeep Selec-Terrain system, providing five modes (Auto, Snow, Sand, Mud and Rock
mode) for the best four-wheel-drive performance on- or off-road and in any weather condition.
For customers who seek the most off-road capability from their Jeep vehicles, the Renegade Trailhawk model delivers
Trail Rated 4x4 capability with:
- Standard Jeep Active Drive Low (20:1 crawl ratio)
- Selec-Terrain system with exclusive Rock mode
- Increased ride height 30mm (1.2 inches)
- Skid plates, and rear red tow hook
- Fascia design delivers 30.5-degree approach, 25.7-degree breakover and 34.3-degree departure angles
- 17-inch all-terrain tyres
- Up to 205mm (8.1 inches) of wheel articulation (rear)
- Hill-descent Control
- Up to 480mm (19 inches) of water fording
- Up to 907kg towing ability with 2.4-litre Tigershark engine
Three engine and transmission combinations
Jeep Renegade has raised the bar — this time in the small SUV class — with the first available nine-speed automatic
transmission. Paired with the 129kW and 230Nm, 2.4-litre Tigershark engine in Trailhawk trim, the nine-speed transmission
delivers numerous benefits customers will appreciate, including aggressive launches, smooth power delivery at highway
speeds and improved fuel efficiency.

a five-speed manual transmission.
The option of two- or four-wheel drive, with three engine choices and three transmission options means there’s an
all-new Jeep Renegade to suit many small SUV buyer requirements.
Technology
The all-new Jeep Renegade offers technology features attainable to customers in the growing small SUV segment –
including Uconnect systems and the availability of 7.0-inch full-colour instrument cluster.
- Uconnect touchscreen radio systems: In-vehicle handsfree communication, entertainment and available
navigation. Key features available on the Uconnect systems include a 5.0-inch or 6.5-inch touchscreen display,
Bluetooth connectivity, USB port and auxiliary audio jack

cluster in front of the driver is an available 7-inch, full-colour, premium multiview display, featuring a
reconfigurable function that enables drivers to personalise information inside the instrument cluster. The information
display is designed to visually communicate information, using graphics and text, quickly and easily.
Safety and security
Safety and security were at the forefront in the development of the Jeep Renegade, setting the stage for more than 60
available safety and security features – including the availability of Forward Collision Warning-Plus and LaneSense
Departure Warning-Plus.
In addition, engineers added both active and passive safety and security features, including available Blind-spot
Monitoring with Rear Cross Path detection, and a standard equipment list which includes a ParkView reverse parking camera
complete with dynamic grid lines; electronic stability control (ESC) with electronic roll mitigation and seven air bags.
