- I test-drove the Jeep Renegade Limited, a FF model, for about 300 kilometers.
On the Internet, I've seen some reviews that say the Renegade has a lot of breakdowns and is expensive to maintain, and that they regret it...but how is its driving performance on Japanese roads?
I checkd how the Renegade has matured in the five years since its debut, mainly through test drives on highways and mountain slopes. We also report on fuel economy using the full tank method.
