Next-generation Jeep Renegade confirmed for 2030 global launch
The Jeep Renegade will be making an official return in 2030, as part of the US brand’s strategy to expand its global portfolio…
The next-generation Jeep Renegade will enter the global market in 2030 as an accessible sub-compact SUV. This announcement comes just over a year after the US carmaker discontinued the previous iteration. Jeep hasn’t provided any information regarding what we can expect from the new rendition, but it brings attention to the fact that 610 000 units of the previous model were sold globally. Die-hard Jeep fans didn’t recognise the Renegade as a true ambassador of the off-road-focused brand, but this sales performance highlights it as a winning formula.
Jeep highlighted the next-generation Renegade will reinforce its position in one of Europe’s key SUV segments and offer a new point of access to the market. Beyond the new Renegade, the company has confirmed it is planning to expand its global strategy beyond 2030.
Xavier Peugeot, Head of Jeep Brand Europe, has confirmed the company’s 2030 roadmap is centred on versatile models like the Renegade. The firm aims to cover 90% of the European SUV market by the end of this decade. Its catalogue will grow to include six models across the B-, C-, and D-SUV segments. Sales of the B-segment Avenger have reached nearly 300 000 units since launch. The new Compass strengthens Jeep in the C-segment. The Jeep Recon will mark the brand’s return to the D-SUV segment, followed by another new model in 2028. True to Jeep standards, all models in the lineup will feature a four-wheel-drive version.
