The 2018 Jeep Renegade is a True Jeep
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 ноя 2024
- It may be the smallest Jeep, but the Renegade is a Jeep through and through. This model is a 4x4 Upland Sport, and with it comes an advanced 4WD system featuring selectable terrain modes for the snow, sand, and mud. It features convenience options like completely keyless 'comfort access' entry, a well finished interior, and pugnacious good looks all for just $26,000 as equipped. That's a lot of car for the money, especially considering the off-road chops it has compared to mostly front-wheel drive competitors.

Love my jeep renegade 2018 sport. Already went 4x4ing with it and its awesome. Got it for 26k as well.
Glad to hear it!
Can you go into 4wd, snow, sand and mud mode on the fly or do you have to be stationary?
@@toddgreen2138 why would you?
@@Gehrke62For when you're on snow, sand or mud...
I get mine Tuesday I’m so excited
how did it go? and is it a trailhawk?
I purchased a 2018 Jeep Renegade Trailhawk with less than 10,000 miles in mid-June. Just got back from my first extended road trip which included off-roading - I LOVE this car. I felt so comfortable putting almost 2,000 miles in 5 days. Handled off-roads like it was running on smooth asphalt. One drawback - it hates city driving - MPG sucks - but get it out on the highway and I pulled in over 30 MPG. It just loves to run.
Do you still like it? Any problems 2 years later?
I just bought a used 2018 Jeep Renegade Upland. It only had 19,000 miles and looks brand new. It originally was a lease.
I absolutely love this vehicle. We went on a long trip this weekend and the drive was pleasant and comfortable. Handled beautifully.
What was the price if you dont mind
Can you go into 4wd, snow, sand and mud mode on the fly or do you have to be stationary?
Do you still like it? 1 year later
I got mine for $14,500 used, still looks great only 20K miles!
I am looking at one that is 19K used and a trailhawk!! excited
@@Dreamllama17 ooo so exciting!!!
You got a much better deal than I did. Uh oh
Damn that’s a good price, I just got a trailhawk, 21k miles for $17,500
We love our Solar Yellow Sport. Its extremely sure-footed in bad road conditions. Ice, snow, mud, you name it. It’s a freaking mountain goat...it’s going anywhere it wants. And the interior space is AMAZING! Only complaint is difficulty finding a model that has a factory tow hitch. Having one installed after market sucks because it hangs really low below the bumper. Makes hauling our kayak trailer a little tricky.
Joyce Reed main reason I still don’t have a hitch. Looking into the bumper and hitch for factory for my 1.4t sport 4x4 6 speed
Eric Bostick since the bumper has to come off anyway to install an aftermarket hitch, might as well replace it. No extra work and the end result is much better.
Joyce Reed just the added cost of the number kit along with the over double cost for the hitch and wiring
Eric Bostick that sucks!
I have a orange one
Alotta people in comment section are so mad and broke they can't afford the beast so they make excuses and bash the car lol
Same people to question the price...
Well...to be fair. The loaded out off road model, which is kinda what will make it contend with it's larger opponents, causes the price to jump $30k. And once you hit $30k, you start to look at the Jeep Wrangler, which is a far superior off road vehicle.
Unless the argument isn't about 4x4 capability to price ratio, then who the hell cares lol. You buy what you like.
@Doge EVERYTHING Chrysler had is owned by fiat, and has been since 2014.
@@jg0909 exactly even dodge is fiat so are those wranglers
Beast? It's a fiat 500x lol
As far from a beast as it gets.
@@kristoffer3000 your 4 years late go home
I love this cute little jeep💕
I got my jeep renegade trailhawk 4x4 for 42k and dont have regrets luv my Jeep 0lllllll0
I’m jealous i have the sport but I can still make it look good
Seems like everybody and their mama's mama wants one of these trailhawks in my area. The few available ones (used) are massively overpriced, high mileage and don't have any of the good features such as the my sky top and navigation. The one's that have everything and are priced right are held hostage as bait and switch vehicles used by the stealerships to get you to drive to their "feeding grounds".....then they HIDE the bait car and tell you "it just sold".......I hate these crooks.
What about fuel requirements? Do I have to use premium gas for a 2018 Renegade (1.4 turbo engine) or can I get away with using regular?
Awesome review! Planning to get one
Thanks for this video! I really want a renegade but I keep hearing people say Jeeps are no good.
Best review of this vehicle by far. Do you know if this vehicle comes with the skid plate?
Hey thank you so much!!
The skid plate is an option, part of the "Customer Preferred Package 2EN" for $995 that includes lots of trim details into, also known as the Upland package option.
Nice review 👍 love my Renegade
Thank you! Enjoy yours!
Can you please advise if this can be used as a very first car? Jeep always catches been my eyes!
I had a jeep renegade and got into and accident where someone smashed right into the front of the car and the airbags didn't go off. Definitely not safe
Yeah well … I’m having electrical issues with out front monitor… those black plastic covers they go on top of the rims are ridiculous. Why did they put plastic?
i love my 2017 jeep renegade laittude its the best small suv out there
I picked up a 2018 sport 4x4 1.4t 6 speed with no a/c or cruise control for 14,500
It's a decent little off-road cAr
love my 2018 period.
My wife likes hers as well I just drove us 1300 miles round trip to Disney..rode like a champ. Surprised me! 98k miles
Great car for Greece 🇬🇷👍
Rented a Renegade on Paros for a week. The Jeep was perfect for the small roads and unpaved trails. My wife and I fell in love with the Jeep and are buying a trailhawk soon. Great little rig!
"might be the smallest jeep" lmao what?? the 2008 Compass is very small lol wtf, I can't wait too get my renegade tomorrow, only 1,800 miles on it & it was used 2018
I just bought a 2018 renegade latitude 4x4 for 16,000 1 month ago 30,000 miles on it I was wondering if overpaid please leave your comments thank you
Is it in good shape? Any crashes? If so, you got a tremendous deal. I just got one with 29k or so but it is close to brand new interior and engine wise. I paid 24k after financing/fees/taxes all of that. Tbh, I almost find it hard to believe you got it that cheap but these deals do happen! They are def sought after. Esp used with those low miles/good conditions. I love mine with all my heart! Had I paid straight cash, chances are it would have been about 19k or so but I had to finance. 3% interest in the loan though!!! Couldn’t be happier. Wonderful vehicle.
does the jeep renegade 1.6 120 ps dcct has apple car play ? ( it has 7 inch multimedia display )
Can you go into 4wd, snow, sand and mud mode on the fly or do you have to be stationary?
...how is that a sport trim...when it has the Trailhawk front bumper, and the tow hooks?....is that available in a different country? In the US, only the Trailhawk and up has the tow hooks, and that style front bumper.
Most of the 4x4 models have them, the trailhawk will have red hooks for extra eye candy
Thompsons Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram when you say “most the 4x4 models” I have to ask where this video was made. Because in the US, even the 4x4 models (excluding trailhawks) have the regular bumper and no tow hooks. I feel either this is a recent change, OR only the case in specific countries.
Ppp
@@blade913 We're out here in California. Looked at some more of our Renegades and I will take that statement back: the only ones that have them are the Sport Upland editionm like in our video, and the Trailhawk.
@@thompsonschryslerdodgejeep6784 ok cool!
Bro you forgot all the Easter eggs. Like the spider by the gas . Or backwindow with a sachwatch or under the steering wheel the hunter
I like the Renegade other than the lethargic 2.4, but it and the Compass are based on the Fiat 500X.
I got mine and havent enjoyed life since. SUV pricing for an italian car that sits low to the ground with no room. Tiny crammed seats. Its not even 5 feet from the front seat to the trunk. All the extra gadgets you don't want added
I'm 70 driven real JEEPS ALL MY LIFE.
Worked as a FIAT mechanic in Europe in 60s& 70s
ITS A GODDARN FIAT DON'T BE FOOLED.
Great jeep
I want to know if this car will last me for years (about 200,000 miles). I don’t do off reading I live in Michigan and need a reliable car for the winter to get me to work and back home. Is the renegade a good choice?
Narc ID yes, I just got this for my 18th birthday, and it works great for the area I live in. I drive up a steep icy mountain everyday, and it handles great!
Croma How is it in stop and go traffic?
its surprisingly very responsive. it has a great braking system, and the tires provide you with plenty of traction
Croma thanks. I’m saving to buy one at the end of the summer.
I have 105K miles on my 2016. It is very reliable and the 4WD system is unmatched by anything in it's class. Some components and switchgear are obviously built to a price point. Power is adequate, the engine is tuned more toward fuel economy. Overall a solid vehicle I would buy again. Pay no attention to the Fiat horror stories. The Renegade is proven with several years of strong sales and miles logged.
Im in the market for the Jeep Renegade and im shopping on Carvana but they don't list whether its AWD or 2WD on any of them. What model am I looking for to get 4x4 and is there any other indicators that will tell me whether the one im looking at has AWD?
InfoBroker they do tell you on there . I been looking on there as well
@@Sevenninefine yeah! figured it out and actually just bought my awd suv 2 days ago. 2016 Buick Encore and I love it. Very easy process with Carvana.
InfoBroker what made you change your mind?
@@Sevenninefine I liked the option upgrades and overall value I got with the Encore. I also just like the design more and the luxury touches it has. Also I like the price and it fit my budget better and with lower miles than I was finding with Renegades. I paid $14,800 after -$500 referral discount taken off price. Here is a link to it.
www.carvana.com/vehicle/1384742
@@CantTreadOnMe No center armrest/console in the Encore was a deal breaker for me. Plus, it's two narrow for 2 average sized (not obese) adults in the front. I also thought the interior looked cheap on most of them.
So the 2017 sport is not considered a Jeep because it’s not 4x4
im trading my bmw in for one soon 🙌🏾
Me tooooo
why?
@@heyjeremiahwhite. because i got tired of the 09 i had and foreign parts are a pain to pay for 🤦🏽♂️ i love my 2020 Renegade.
@@justinbaker1638 just did the same…what a weight off my shoulders. I look forward to only paying for oil changes, brakes and tires for the next few years 😂
@@Cocochantelle hope you enjoy it queen. ive had mine a year now, no issues at all. best decision i made concerning automobiles.
How can you only spend 8 seconds on how it drives 😭😭
The GoPro had stopped recording unbeknownst to me during driving and did not have a chance to re film it :/
I would buy anything from him
If You Like It , Then That's Cool , & That's ALL That Matters ...... But What You Have There Basically Is A Fiat Panda ... I've Heard They Were Good Off Roaders ... Good Luck , Be Safe !! 😆
Doug Censor Martin is a car dealer now?
The space in the boot is rubbish . It’s pram or shopping . Not good if you have 2 kids . I thought it would be really good too
It's a FIAT! Fix It Again Tony
Yea he dosnt know what he's talking about.
And I like how the seats fold almost all the way down.
I want to get one for my first car so bad my parents are problay gonna help me get it cause they helped my brother get his car to and they told me there gonna help me but I’m only 14 lol
Trading my 2D wrangler for one of these bad boys
Got mines cause my ex no longer wanted to pay a car note ....and I signed my name on the dotted line...I wanted a mustang....fml....now I am stuck with a baby jeep and we paid $28000 total ...
No it's not it literally sits on the chassis of another car some fiat
The Renegade came first before the 500x, and it is a 4WD platform designed for a Jeep. I'd say that makes it a Jeep.
@@thompsonschryslerdodgejeep6784 It's a Fiat platform 🤡
👍🏻🇷🇸
True Jeep. It has no frame.
Pretty sure that is essentially a fiat 500.....
A lifted fiat 500 is not a Jeep.
Kristopherson Williamson what do you consider a Jeep?
@@edgarh252 my standard tj i6 is pretty Jeep.
Cheers,
WillyGonWild in Canada yup it’s one of Jeeps only car lines that’s imported from the Fiat manufacturing plant. No thank you
Ahahahahah
Fiat 500 is better than any American made Jeep...
This guy works for a dealer, of course he’s going to try to make it sound good. Vehicle is actually trash, read the reviews on the internet and realize who owns Chrysler right now. Spend your money elsewhere. Chrysler has been plummeting in sales for a very long while. Jeep is one of their only brands that still sells
Kelly Blue Book -- a very authoritative Motor Journal -- Gives the Renegade 4 + stars. Don't spew out rubbish without knowing the subject. Renegade is one of the best selling subcompacts in the US.
YOU have no clue what are talking about. So cringe when people just blurt out a bunch of bullshit like it’s law and they literally have no fucking clue what they are talking about. “I read it on the internet, so it must be true!”.
Well you know its fake... when someone has to say TRUE so many times. Italian look-alike of a true Jeep, That's what it is.
Isn’t a fiat? Same engine as a fiat
Aldo Felipe a lot of cars have that engine
Edgar Heredia whats so special about this engine ?
Aldo Felipe ya it’s one of the only Jeep vehicles that’s imported from Fiat and built in their plant. That was a huge red flag for me. Went and bought a Mazda CX 5 instead.
SEAtown Rider compass is the same as renegade just looks different
SEAtown Rider no offense by Mazda vehicles are terrible as well as parts are also oddly more expensive then Honda or Toyota counterparts.
It's actually a FIAT PANDA....not really a Jeep..lol
Considering that it's related to a 500x and not a Panda, but I guess we'll take your word for it
@@thompsonschryslerdodgejeep6784 oh but it's coming...lol...mini renegade...haha..😂
Fully agree. Old wranglers ftw
NO. It's not a Fiat Panda. By the way, Fiat Panda is a great little SUV but the Renegade is built on an entirely new platform. Jeep brand is owned by Fiat., and the Renegade is built by Fiat for the Jeep brand. It'd not a re-bagged Fiat.
@@lakshmandalpadado9066 Entirely new old platform that Fiat have used for ages.
So close to buying one of these....then found it was built by the Fiat 500 people. Put me off. Sure enough, reading the 5year reviews, electrical problems are rife. Anything Italian/polish or Fiat is s+it. I see enough Fiats by the side of the road or on the backs of recovery vehicles to know you just don't touch them with a barge pole.
I didn't know that and was going to purchase one. I have a Fiat 500 and it is absolute crap. Thank you for the info.
I don’t think there’s a direct correlation.
Ahahahahahaha, what a pile of crap.
Chris Mully Which one did you drive in the Huckfest? Any videos?
Broke ass bitch 😂
Caelan Wykoff and it he bought this car he’d be even more broke cause of all the repairs he’d have to make to it.
Let’s face it, you have no clue how this car is made and who owns Chrysler. This car is a rebrand of another fiat model. It’s a terrible vehicle. So before you call someone broke get your fuckin knowledge game up you pleb
This is a Chrysler Fiat.. not a Jeep.. utter Garbage
fake news
This isn't a true jeep. It's a fiat panda with a new shell hahaha
Thank you for this revelation! Considering it's related to the 500x that was developed together with the Renegade and not the Panda...but we'll take your word for it, random person of the Internet 👍
It’s not a Jeep but a Fiat in disguise. One of the worst automakers in the world. It’s not a true American vehicle but an Italian one, which Italians are not known for making anything reliable.
what's a good new car (similar type, SUV 4x4 preferably) to get at similar price in your opinion? all car makers seem to make unreliable crap these days.
Not true at all. It’s 2019 not 1985
I have a renegade uptown 4x4 thus car never Let's me down in the city, mud, snow basicly everywhere.
the red tailed shark It’s a Fiat not a Jeep.
@@ELPJM09 Do you think I care?
Allow a brand to test New things.
The renegade in Europe is a huge succes.
