Interior of the 2021 Jeep Renegade

Most of the Renegade lineup for 2021 gives you a 2.4-liter engine that provides up to 180 horsepower and 175 pound-feet of torque. This engine is available with both front-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive drivetrains.

The other engine option is a 1.3-liter turbo powerplant that sacrifices a small amount of horsepower (down to 177) but gains a lot of torque with 210 pound-feet of torque available. This engine is only available on the Trailhawk and the Limited trims where it comes standard along with standard four-wheel drive. Both trims provide different efficiency numbers.
