- Small crossover SUVs are hot right now, and nothing in the segment has the iconic design and pedigree of the Jeep Renegade. Jaunty and sparkly eyed, the 2016 Jeep Renegade looks ready to take on the world. You might even be tempted to dismiss it as something other than a real Jeep, or as too small to be practical for daily driving. You’d be wrong on both fronts.
Despite its shortcomings, we like the Jeep Renegade. Affordable, practical, and stylish, it possesses undeniable charisma, there is a sense of substance to its construction, and thoughtfulness is clearly evident in the execution. Plus, unlike its competition, the Renegade supplies genuine off-roading capability. Read more on CarGurus: cargur.us/8nqlN

Down for up and up for down is how it's supposed to be... Like a manual shifter would have. The point is when you are accelerating, the car throws your body backwards and you would normally up-shift when accelerating, therefore pulling back makes sense, because that's where your body goes anyway. Same thing when slowing down + down shifting. Good review though! I love my 2016 Trailhawk.
can you just keep reviewing things for like 6 hours? i'll just listen and fall asleep. so nice.
It's the music.
Been looking into getting a ‘16 Renegade, this video has been extremely helpful. Thank you!
As with all videos, there are differing opinions. Well done video. But here are my general thoughts. I have a '15. Have owned it for a year. I drive the highways on a daily basis. At 70 mph, it rides like a vehicle that costs 40% more. I have the Sport, 2.4l automatic. The only thing hard to control is the speed. It wants to go faster than the speed limit. I always have to use the cruise control. The shifting in manual mode took some getting used to. I had a 5 speed previously so the shift points are different. Once I figured that out, it was like driving a Mercedes. I get an overall average of 27 mpg. Have never been happier with a more capable vehicle. Snow? Runs through it like a tank. Buy a used one, save money. Other than that, best vehicle ever.
Been looking at getting one. Without trying to jinx you, any issues? I had wanted a Patriot, but I've heard iffy things about their transmissions
I bought 2015 renegade any tips on the manual shifter i wanna use it more
The Chevy Trax is better and gets 30 MPG
@@GGARC1A95 I upshift at 2700 rpm. Can't go wrong.
Very helpful. Thank you.
Looks good
The 8-way power driver seat is fine when it is working. The FCA Italian SUV has a recurring
power problem that prevents the use of the 8-way and lumbar functions.
My jeep renegade is a Trail hawk and it was like 32K with destination charges.
The trunk bin is for storing your MySky roof top covers. If you do not have MySky, they you just have more space. Smugglers hole.
I just bought one but if it's gonna be a dinner problem I'll just return it tomorrow😂😂😂😂😂😂
?! wait... the more people and the more stuff you put into a renegade, the slower it feels...really?! hmm didn't know cars did that...
Any spare tire? Or is it optional? If not, it's a deal killer.
Yeah it offers an optional spare tire.
Doesn't this Jeep have a sport mode?
Ever since someone said it was a giant fiat 500.....i just can't 😭😭😭😭 they're so cool. But i would never ever buy a fiat.
In the fall of 2017 I purchased a new 2017 Jeep Renegade from a dealer in Anchorage Alaska. I live in a remote Alaskan town with the closest mechanic over 100 miles away - in Canada. I made it clear to the dealer I needed a reliable, sturdy vehicle. The car was fine until the temperature dropped below 20F then it would start - and immediately stall with a noticeable smell of gas. I called the dealer and he recommended using Heet and blamed the bad gas in the town. Heet did nothing and no other car is having the same problem. The dealer is over 700 miles away and I can't have the car towed back. There's no one to work on it here and the dealer is unwilling to do anything more. The car is a princess car - it'll only run if it's warm and sunny. Which means i'm walking to work at 20 below. Moral is don't buy Jeep and don't buy a Jeep Renegade. As soon as possible I'm taking it to another town to trade it in for a Japanese or Korean car. Something reliable.
It feels like you just told a fake story just so we won't buy a Jeep wow who paid this person....
My asshole feels wet when it’s dry

This guy has no idea what he's saying I have a 2018 Jeep Renegade latitude this thing is quick off the line I find the 2.4 liter multiair engine very responsive when you smash the gas and if you know how to use the manual shifter it's even faster it handles very well for an SUV and I have no issues on the highway at 80 miles per hour handles fine very little noise and rides great and I get 25 miles to the gallon so I don't know what the hell this guy's talking about he only gets 21.4 that's a bunch of BS
Just got my wife a 2018 1.4L Turbo and 6-speed manual. We really like it. It doesn't feel like a cheap sub-compact vehicle... it has a high quality feel and lots of high end features. Haven't had it long enough to know what the average mileage is, but I guarantee it's better than my 4 ton Ram 2500 diesel 4x4.
He's got a 2016. You've got a 2018. That's the difference.
How is your 2018 doing now? I just bought one
Damn I didn't know about the side impact and possibility of roll over! I read that it got 5* in the crash test and that's it :/ I like this car a lot..shame
The more people slower the renegade..on highway drive faster its not comfortable..hmmm...otherwise renegade is a remarkable vehicle.again after pointing some negatives points he says.I like the renegade... what type of vehicle and review..confusing...
Awesome car but hate the whole oil consumption flaw it has
Please explain further
Ode to The Wretched google jeep renegade oil consumption
A review showing / listing various issues owners have had would be a lot more helpful!, my 2016 Rene Trailhawk was in the shop 3 times with under 28,000 MI. Me buy another Jeep? 🤔😆👎👎👎👎
I would live this but the mpg is killllling me 😔
*like
EllysaE kll
what are you talking about? it averages around more or less, 24mpg. The average mpg of most vehicles is mid 20's... If you're looking for 30+ mpg you will have an extremely limited selection of vehicles.
mpg isn't "killing" anyone unless they're getting sub-20mpg in the teens.
Like my Explorer......
Still love it though
@@astraldragon5483 The Chevy Trax gets like 30 Mpg
You didnt mention the price, i wonder why, Its not free.
umm the price was mentioned, damn son
1:59
Zulfiqar M its cheaper then most
This is cartoonish but probably better than the Fiat 500X
Yes, it shares the platform of the 500X, rear storage is better in the Jeep. Everything else is the same, just different nameplate characteristics.
@@MasonMorris_RadioSaladStudios that and the trailhawk. Trailhawk makes it a Jeep.
Engine has detonation. Alignment always running away specs, oil consumption huge. Car slow as turtle . 25K transmission replaced by warranty. It is not a car. Bin with bolts.
Very ugly car
Just a 4 wheel drive Fiat 500 piece of crap. One of the worst vehicles out there.
😂 the Jeep Wrangler feels the best of all worlds even better than everyday boring SUVs but the Jeep Renegade is also a nice little ride for a basic Little Ride if you're smart enough which is a lot of people are not they rely on the computer world today all you got to do is change up things you don't like
