In 2014, Stellantis released the subcompact crossover Jeep Renegade, which became the brand’s first vehicle to be produced outside North America. It quickly became popular in Asia, Europe, South America, and some African countries and received many positive reviews.
Residents of Spain especially liked this vehicle. In 2015, it was recognized as the best small SUV in this country and earned the status of one of the most popular models. There are many reasons for the success of the Jeep Renegade. The main ones should be discussed in more detail.
Unlimited off-road capabilities
New or purchased at an online auction where damaged cars are for sale, the Jeep Renegade is the perfect vehicle for off-road driving. This is proven not only by the model’s characteristics but also by numerous positive reviews from drivers.
The Trailhawk modification is especially well-suited for off-road driving. It was initially adapted for driving on mud, rocks, and sand, so it easily copes with any surface. Other versions of the Jeep Renegade also perform well off-road, although they have fewer capabilities than the Trailhawk.
In Spain, one of the primary forms of entertainment is outdoor recreation. Many country residents get together and go to places far from the city where they can rest silently. That is why the Jeep Renegade, which demonstrates exemplary handling on rocky, sandy or dirt roads, has become an absolute favorite of thousands of Spaniards. With its help, you can get to any chosen vacation spot without walking.
High level of comfort
All Spaniards love comfort and try to create an appropriate environment wherever they are. For this reason, they often change the design of their living spaces, arrange their workplaces uniquely and much more. For the same reason, Spanish residents choose the Renegade. Among all Jeep models, it is considered one of the most comfortable. It is always pleasant to make short and long trips at any time of the year and travel with the whole family.
Jeep Renegade provides a high level of comfort for the driver and passengers. It has comfortable soft seats with adjustable backrests, armrests and headrests, allowing the seat to be adjusted to the individual needs of people in the cabin and achieving maximum comfort.
In addition, the driver who chooses Renegade can enjoy driving thanks to a modern steering wheel covered with pleasant-to-the-touch leather. Also, everyone in the cabin has access to climate control, which allows them to achieve a comfortable air temperature.
Economy
The most economical cars always come to the fore in the modern world. They allow us to reduce fuel costs and automatically reduce emissions of harmful substances into the atmosphere. Thanks to this feature, most models fit into the framework of environmental laws and become available to drivers. The listed aspects are of the utmost importance for the Spaniards.
Residents of the country do not like to overpay for anything and, in every way, support the desire to protect the continent’s ecology. This easily explains the popularity of Renegade, which is economical and compliant with the strict environmental laws of Spain.
Jeep’s subcompact crossover Renegade is available with various engines. Depending on its characteristics, It consumes 6.4-11.2 liters of fuel for every 100 km of city travel. On the highway, this figure is 5.5-8.1 liters. The model with a hybrid engine is even more economical. It consumes significantly less fuel, reducing CO2 emissions to a minimum.
Attractive appearance
Most Spaniards like to attract attention to themselves, so they often choose the Jeep Renegade as their primary vehicle. This car’s bright design distinguishes it from other vehicles and makes it noticeable on the road. The Renegade’s appearance has remained virtually unchanged since its release in 2014, allowing it to acquire its style. Only a few manufacturers have similar models.
Renegade is one of the few crossovers that looks cool. Its front features round LED headlights and a signature radiator grille, typical for Jeep models. At the back, special attention should be paid to the square-shaped headlights (also LED) and the complex bumper with a unique protective cover.
Renegade is equipped with alloy wheels. They harmoniously complement the crossover’s appearance and allow it to look holistic.
High level of safety
Different versions of the Jeep Renegade are often called crossovers. They provide high safety when driving on any surface. It passes most crash tests without problems and receives high marks. The residents of Spain appreciate this vital nuance, so this car is often chosen as the main transport for families and adventure lovers.
The Jeep Renegade has been tested many times by various status organizations involved in checking the safety of vehicles. So, IIHS assigned the car the status of “Good” (the highest rating) for most parameters and did not find significant problems with the degree of protection of people in the cabin. NHTSA gave the Jeep Renegade 4 stars (maximum – 5 stars).
The only considerable problem revealed during the crash tests was protecting the passenger from a side impact. This is why the crossover failed to receive the highest score. Euro NCAP also gave the Jeep Renegade a good rating. After checking the standard configuration of the car, it was given a maximum of 5 stars.
Many unusual additions
The Spanish always prefer to get the most out of the car available to them. That is why they chose the Jeep Renegade, which can give them basic functionality and many beneficial additions. Among the latter, the My Sky roof stands out. It has a removable design and, at the user’s discretion, can be used as an ordinary hatch or wholly removed to gain access to fresh air.
In Spain, where it is almost always sunny and warm, this option is in high demand, and its presence is a significant reason for choosing Renegade as a car for traveling.
The next non-standard addition is electric seats. They are unavailable on all cars, so Renegade owners can consider themselves lucky. This option makes it possible to adjust the position of the seat and adapt it to a person’s individual needs. Another interesting addition is the Selec-Terrain traction control system.
It opens up new possibilities for adapting the vehicle’s operation to changing road conditions. Switching between modes can achieve stable vehicle behavior on any surface, ideal comfort and pleasant driving sensations.
Jeep Renegade is a popular crossover in many countries worldwide, but it has received the most significant recognition in Spain. There, it is loved for its high level of safety, beautiful appearance, excellent off-road qualities, comfort, economy and many unusual additions.
These qualities have allowed it to receive many status awards and become one of the favorites of thousands of Spaniards.
