2017 Jeep Renegade

The Renegade is a subcompact crossover SUV produced by Chrysler, under the Jeep brand. This model was released last year as 2015 year model, as an all-new vehicle. It developed in Europe and it is produced in Italy, along with Fiat 500X, which is its close relative. 

Many of parts like platform, engines etc. are shared between these two models. Although this model is still very fresh, company already works on so-called mid-cycle refresh, which is expected to come in 2017. The 2017 Jeep Renegade is expected to come with several modifications, both in visual and technical aspects.
