The UK arm of Jeep
announced pricing and range details of the facelifted 2019 Renegade, which is
set to arrive in the country this September armed with refreshed styling and
new engines.
The completely
revised engine range now includes a new turbocharged 1.0-liter three-pot petrol
unit with 118 hp and an also new turbocharged 1.3-liter four-cylinder
petrol offered with 148 hp or 177 hp.
Diesel models get
the updated 1.6-liter and 2.0-liter Multijet II engines. Customers will be able
to choose between a six-speed manual, a six-speed dual-clutch and a nine-speed
automatic transmission, depending on the selected engine.
The revamped
Renegade features a revised front-end design that includes a new grille, new
headlights and fog lights. Jeep has also added a range of new wheel options,
ranging from 16- to 19-inch sizes.
The 2019 Renegade
will start from £ 19,200 in base Sport 1.0T trim. Base models get a five-inch
infotainment system, but a faster system with a larger 8.4-inch touchscreen
display will be available.
As before, the
Renegade will be available with front- or all-wheel drive. The company offers
two 4×4 systems, with or without a low-range option. The Jeep Selec-Terrain
offers four different driving modes, depending on the surface you’re driving
on.
