Jeep’s reputation for building rugged and capable adventurers was born out of necessity at the dawn of World War II, but even after meeting the military’s need for a light reconnaissance vehicle, Jeep refused to stop there. That persistence has paid off, as we see in models like the 2022 Jeep Renegade. It’s the most affordable Jeep in the fleet and one that promises plenty of fun on four wheels in true Jeep fashion.
First introduced in 2015, the Renegade filled a vacancy for a small SUV in the Jeep lineup. That first Renegade made history as the most capable small SUV ever built and rightly earned its place in the fleet as well as the honor of bearing Jeep’s legendary seven-slot grille and round headlights. Today, the 2022 Renegade continues that legacy by offering best-in-class off-road capability and the open-air freedom you’ve come to expect from the Jeep name.
Starting at $24,965,* the 2022 Renegade is the most affordable Jeep you’ll find in the fleet whether you’re shopping for the entry-level Sport, the rugged Trailhawk, or the opulent Limited. The entire lineup offers an exceptional value thanks to the Renegade’s capability and its array of cutting-edge connectivity, safety, and driver-assist technology. Trims like the Trailhawk are especially impressive and help the Renegade live up to the Jeep name with its best-in-class four-wheel drive capability, improved ground clearance, and maneuverability. This gives you the confidence you need to venture off the trail and get a little mud on the tires.

The 2022 Renegade offers an impressive balance of power and efficiency that adds to its versatility to make it ideal for commuters and adventurers alike. It comes standard with a 1.3-liter turbocharged engine with engine stop-start technology that’s mated to a 9-speed automatic transmission. This pairing delivers 177 horsepower and 210 lb-ft of torque, the latter of which makes the Renegade quick to accelerate and capable of handling its own, whether navigating rush-hour traffic or cruising at highway speeds.
Surprisingly, the Renegade’s turbo engine doesn’t sacrifice the SUV’s fuel economy or its capability. That’s thanks to the Renegade’s active grille shutters that improve its aerodynamics and the engine’s stop-start technology, the latter of which shuts off fuel consumption when the Renegade is stopped and then seamlessly restarts the engine once the accelerator pedal is engaged. As for numbers, the front-wheel drive Renegade averages 24 MPG in the city and 32 MPG on the highway, while the all-wheel drive model averages 23 MPG and 29 MPG, respectively.
Jeep allows you to further customize how the Renegade performs with the standard Jeep Active Drive four-wheel drive system and the Selec-Terrain traction management system. The Active Drive system is an automatic, single-speed transfer case that helps you navigate the road ahead by automatically maximizing traction and sending power to the wheels that need it. The Selec-Terrain system improves the Renegade’s handling with Auto, Snow, Sand, and Mud modes that customize the Renegade’s traction, steering, and performance based on the condition at hand. On the Trailhawk, you’ll find the addition of Rock mode that extends the SUV’s capability.
The Jeep name is forever tied to adventure among American drivers, and the 2022 Renegade Trailhawk is no exception. While every trim in the fleet is worthy of the Jeep name, the Trailhawk bears Jeep’s Trail Rated badge, and that speaks volumes to its capability long after the pavement ends and the trail begins. This makes the Renegade Trailhawk a must-have for adventurers looking for open-air freedom wherever the road or trail leads.
The Trailhawk’s capability comes from Jeep’s Active Drive Low four-wheel drive system and the Selec-Terrain traction management system. Active Drive Low is a rugged four-wheel-drive system that outfits the SUV with a 4-Low mode that delivers a wider gear range to better meet the demands of the trail. This translates to best-in-class capability and a 22:1 crawl ratio. You’ll also find the Trailhawk’s Selec-Terrain system adds a fifth driving mode–Rock–for the best four-wheel drive performance on any terrain.
While the Trailhawk might be capable of traveling across obstacles and rugged trails, can it do so with confidence? Jeep ensures as much by outfitting the Trailhawk with skid plates that protect its underbody and other vital engine components from damage on the trail. This means that you can easily push the Renegade to its limits, testing its maneuverability, 8.1 inches of articulation, 8.7 inches of ground clearance, and 19 inches of water fording capability. Jeep even makes getting out of a dicey situation easier with front and rear tow hooks, as well as tools like Hill Descent Control that give you the confidence you deserve when you’re in the driver’s seat.
As the crossroads of affordability and innovation, the 2022 Renegade has every connectivity feature you need to make your time behind the wheel more enjoyable by ensuring you never miss a beat of your busy life. The SUV comes standard with a 7-inch display that can be upgraded to an 8.4-inch touchscreen display that’s home to Jeep’s renowned Uconnect 4C NAV infotainment system. The system gives you access to your smartphone via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration, putting your favorite apps at your fingertips in an intuitive and familiar layout.
With your smartphone connected, you’ll find a world of connectivity within reach with advanced tools like Jeep Skill for Amazon Alexa. This equips the Renegade with a virtual assistant and gives you remote access to the SUV from the comfort of your home. You can ask Alexa to check the Renegade’s fuel level, start the engine, or send directions to your next destination directly to the SUV without ever leaving the couch.
You’ll find the Uconnect 4C NAV system is also home to a WiFi hotspot that’s great for keeping your passengers connected and entertained. It’s also home to SiriusXM Guardian, which connects you to your Renegade via the display or an app on your smartphone. The tool provides monthly health reports on the condition of the Renegade and gives you the ability to send directions from your smartphone to the Renegade with ease, which means less time spent searching for the perfect route and more time enjoying the drive.
The 2022 Renegade is proof that safety is a top priority for Jeep and delivers on its promise to give drivers confidence wherever they roam. Offering over 70 standard and available safety, security, and driver-assist features, the Renegade is equipped with innovative tools that not only enhance your visibility and reduce the risk of injury but also minimize the potential for collision and improve your experience in the driver’s seat. This is what it means to roam with confidence in the Renegade.
The 2022 Renegade offers the segment’s first Forward Collision Warning-Plus and LaneSense Departure Warning-Plus. Full-Speed Forward Collision Warning works in conjunction with Active Braking to watch the road ahead and alert you to potential collisions. If you fail to respond to the alert, the Renegade will automatically apply the brakes in an effort to bring the SUV to a controlled stop to prevent impact. The LaneSense Lane Departure Warning works with Lane Keep Assist to help you keep the SUV safely centered in its lane and on the road.
The Renegade is also equipped with Blind Spot Monitoring and Rear Cross Path Detection that supply the SUV with an extra set of eyes to make navigating busy areas easier. Adaptive Cruise Control builds on traditional cruise control by actively monitoring the flow of traffic ahead and adjusting the Renegade’s cruising speed as needed to maintain a safe distance. You’ll also find that parking the Renegade is simple with tools like ParkSense Rear Park Assist and Parallel and Perpendicular Park and Exit Assist. These tools can take over the steering wheel while directing you to shift gears, brake, and accelerate to expertly navigate the Renegade into the designated parking spot.
