The much speculated baby Jeep SUV has broken cover at the Geneva Motor Show and it is getting rave reviews. The new Jeep is designed in USA but built by Fiat in Italy and is based on the Fiat 500L so it will suit the narrow roads of Europe and large cities around the world.
Looking quite cute it will appeal to a whole new lifestyle market for Jeep and will have huge appeal to urban warriors with a hankering for something different to the usual "Japorean " mould.
Shown for the first time at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, Jeep pulled in Jeep Chief Mike Manly to present the new Jeep Renegade to the motoring media. More details will come soon but it appears that Jeep have a 2WD, AWD and a off road capable Trailhawk version. Using Fiat running gear and drivelines it should be well priced and packaged.
The new Jeep broke cover yesterday with some media outlets ignoring the Jeep media embargo and releasing photos on the internet prior to official launch. This is one of the most important releases for Jeep and certainly looks like a winner. We have no confirmation if it will come to Australia but if it does it should be a hit.
