The Renegade is an important vehicle for Jeep. It's the first time they've ever committed to building what they call a "small SUV." Jeep has been building "compact" SUVs for a while, but now they truly have a vehicle that doesn't just work in the city, but thrives there. Renegade pricing starts at under $18,000, significantly cheaper than the MINI Countryman which is roughly the same size.
