Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

The 2019 Jeep Renegade’s new engine should help this likable crossover SUV use less fuel.

Pros
Looks like it wants to off-road
Logical control layout
Good optional infotainment
Real off-road ability
Removable roof panels

Cons
Tight squeeze for four adults
Base engine is noisy, underpowered
Lack of standard active safety tech
Spartan Sport trim level

The Jeep Renegade receives only minor changes for 2020. All versions come with a new telematics unit and one year of free subscription service that allows owners to remotely lock, unlock, or start the Renegade with the Uconnect smartphone app. Several options, such as 19-inch wheels, the LED Lighting package, the Safety and Security package, and the Advanced Tech package, are now available on lower trim levels.

Pros
Lovable design, comfortable ride, capable off-roading with the Trailhawk.

Cons
Painfully slow, lousy fuel economy, limited storage.

Perky optional plug-in hybrid powertrain,
futuristic appearance,
well-equipped from EX trim up.

buzzy engine sounds under heavy throttle,
not as fuel efficient in our testing as last year's model.
