The Jeep Renegade offers distinctive styling and decent practicality, but most rivals make it feel agricultural.
Pros Plenty of standard equipment Good safety rating Genuine off-road ability
Cons Unsettled ride Awful refinement Comparatively expensive
Pros Feels like a proper off-road application of hybrid tech – and it works well off road Preserves the Renegade’s plucky charm. It’s good fun to drive at times
Cons Hybrid system doesn’t tame the Renegade’s rough-hewn temperament as a road car It also adversely affects carrying practicality, which was already in slightly mean supply
With so much Giulia DNA, the Stelvio was bound to be good. At last an Alfa to buy with your heart *and* head
Pros One of the more lithe SUVs to drive is comfy and refined too
Cons Not without compromise, and does it look good enough for an Alfa?
