The 2019 Jeep Renegade is a subcompact SUV that’s as adept at driving on the road as it is crawling over rocks and mud during off-road adventures. According to the New Buffalo Jeep Dealer, the Renegade is head and shoulders above the competition, with a luxurious interior, user-friendly technology features and exceptional off-road ability. You’ll find the price is right, too, which is another reason to take a close look at the 2019 Renegade.
The 2019 Jeep Renegade is offered in four trim levels at dealerships like the Jeep Dealer in New Buffalo: Sport, Latitude, Limited and Trailhawk. All trims other than the Trailhawk get standard front-wheel drive and available all-wheel drive, except the Trailhawk, which gets all-wheel drive standard. All models are motivated by a standard 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine generating 180 horsepower and 175 lb-ft of torque, teamed to a nine-speed automatic transmission. Towing capacity with the base engine and four-wheel drive is rated at 2,000 pounds.
We’ll take a look at the different trim levels available and see what each one has to offer.
Renegade Sport
The 2019 Jeep Renegade Sport trim comes with 16-inch steel wheels, a rearview camera, keyless entry, a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, a height-adjustable driver's seat, manually adjustable mirrors, a front passenger seat that folds flat, a 60/40-split folding rear seat, a removable cargo floor panel, a six-speaker stereo system, a 5-inch touchscreen, a USB port and Bluetooth.
Renegade Sport buyers can upgrade the model with three available packages: the Sport Appearance package, the Power & Air Group and the Uconnect 7.0 Group. The Sport Appearance package includes alloy wheels, roof rails and privacy glass. The Power & Air Group adds heated and power-adjustable exterior mirrors, cruise control and AC.
