Jeep Renegade Handling

2020 Jeep Renegade Engine SpecsNo matter if you’re just riding around town, going off-roading, or out when inclement weather hits, the Jeep Renegade is ready to give you smooth, stable, and controlled driving.

It all starts with its engine. The 2.4L Tigershark® engine produces 180 horsepower and 175 lb-ft of torque, which is plenty to get this compact Jeep up to speed. This power is also quickly delivered to the wheels by the 9-speed automatic transmission for smooth, optimized acceleration.

The legendary 4×4 performance of a Jeep is where the Renegade separates itself. With two available 4×4 systems to choose between, you’ll be able to confidently drive through snowy weather and over a variety of terrain. The available Selec-Terrain® Traction Management System lets you even tailor the vehicle’s performance to current and changing conditions. Just switch among modes like SNOW, SAND, MUD, and ROCK, and let the Renegade optimize your performance.
