2023 Jeep Renegade Altitude

The 2023 Renegade is Jeep's smallest SUV, a subcompact that blends city-friendly size with the brand's off-road attitude. It competes with the Honda HR-V, Mazda CX-30, and Kia Seltos, but the Renegade brings a more rugged character. The Renegade feels nimble in town, with light steering and a ride that handles broken pavement without fuss. Inside, the cabin is stylish with Jeep-inspired details, though rear legroom is tight for adults. Stepping up to the Altitude adds 17-inch aluminum wheels, a dual-zone automatic climate control system, and the Uconnect 4C NAV with an 8.4-inch touch screen. The 1.3L I4 makes 177 horsepower and 210 lb-ft of torque, paired with a nine-speed automatic and four-wheel drive that feels eager around town and returns 26 mpg combined. The Altitude comes with cloth seats and halogen headlamps, keeping costs down while still offering the Selec-Terrain system for light off-road duty.
