Take a look at a lot of SUVs and note how big or small they are.
The Jeep Renegade is actually a subcompact crossover SUV perfect for the person transitioning out of a sedan into a larger but not too large of a vehicle.
Are you a bit hesitant to move from that vehicle you are in?
Is your current vehicle a seasonal friend or foe?
After all, the savvy Jeep Renegade can be your all-season companion depending on which model you choose.
From sun to snow, different Jeep Renegades offer something for everyone.
After all, living anywhere in Pennsylvania and Ohio provides you a front-row seat to all four seasons.
Here’s a look at why a Jeep Renegade is your seasonal friend.
Why A Jeep Renegade Is Your Seasonal Friend
Popular Vehicle Choice for 4 Seasons and 5 Reasons
While we change clothes to match every season, you simply can not do that with a vehicle.
We have a few Jeeps (3) and love them.
I can’t say enough good stuff about them!
Our kids drive them, we drive them and we will buy more.
Once you make a vehicle purchase that is kind of it.
It’s not like you can go into your closet and find one to match the weather.
What you want to consider is the purchase of a Jeep Renegade as it can be the best subcompact crossover SUV you may ever purchase.
While the size of the vehicle is not huge, if you have a small family or a smaller budget, this vehicle may be the vehicle of your dreams.
The cost of a basic Jeep Renegade in FWD (as that comes standard) is about $18,500.
Additional add-ons, as well as AWD, and interior features increase your price as you would expect.
Fall, Winter, Spring & Summer 4 Seasons
Depending on which model of Jeep Renegade that you choose will depend on its driveability in all seasons.
Also, take into consideration what part of the country you live in because not all seasons are the same.
So for those of us in Ohio and Pittsburgh, we have 4 seasons and 5 reasons to buy a Jeep Renegade.
Check out our Hocking Hill adventures in Ohio for some driving Jeep inspiration!
Winter: Go In The Snow
Snow is a beast, can your vehicle go when it snows?
I love when we can just drive by a person without a vehicle that goes in the snow (there are a lot of them, lol!)
Consider a Jeep Renegade with AWD, instead of the basic provided FWD.
Select Terrain Management will help you along in that snow!
Plus take into consideration where you travel for winter vacations and never knowing what slush and road conditions will be tossed at you while you are there.
Fear not, your Jeep Renegade in AWD will be your best friend in snow and slush.
Rainy Days Give Way To Sunshine
At some point, we want to say, ‘Rain, rain, go away!’
You won’t when you have a Jeep or my fave the Jeep Renegade with all-wheel drive.
Splashing off-road is a ton of fun, and our mountain adventures are boundless.
Therefore, when it rains, it’s time to go even more on an adventure to enjoy the vehicle!
Rain is a splash ton of fun and we can drive through those puddles with pleasure!
Since Pittsburgh and Ohio all of the seasons, we experience all of these weather patterns from rain to snow to sunshine!
Trailhawk Jeep Renegade
For those that love Fall and all off-roading and hiking you can experience them with ‘nicer’ weather, well, look at the Trailhawk trim.
It’s basically outfitted for those off-road, off-the-grid experiences.
Fun, intuitive, and what you want when you go seeking a mystery ride on that road you may not know!
If you live in an area that gets cold a lot, you will love the upgradeable feature of a heated steering wheel.
Why wear gloves while you are driving when your heated steering wheel keeps your hands toasty.
MPG is Fantastic
Expect great gas mileage from about 21 mpg with city driving to 29 on highway terrain.
That means less cost to fuel up and stay on the road.
Consider all of the trips you take, where you drive, and the cost of fuel.
The Jeep Renegade is not only a popular 4 season vehicle, but it’s also got great fuel economy for what it is!
Cargo Space
Do you ski?
Do you Surf?
Hike?
How about do you have a stroller you tote along?
Maybe you shop a lot?
Any of these go well with the Jeep Renegade, there’s plenty of room.
Stash your gear and go, because your Jeep Renegade celebrates 4 seasons!
Time To Jeep Into It Right?
The Jeep Renegade is available in Sport, Latitude, or Limited, all with various pricing ranges making it an attainable vehicle for anyone who wants a fun ride.
From muddy roads to local roads, parking spots to parking garages, the size of this SUV is just perfect.
Clearance in garages is not an issue like traditional full-size SUV’s and parallel parking is not an episode either (personal experience).
Get out there and test drive a Jeep Renegade and get ready to experience the seasons in style.
Opinions are my own based on test drives and ownership.
