Pros Striking exterior design Spacious and high-quality interior Excellent ride comfort Refined engine and gearbox
Cons No sub-$40,000 variant Driving position compromises Expensive servicing Facelifted 3008 coming in early 2021
Tangibly more practical and interesting than a 308, this is SUVs done properly.
Pros Uncommonly interesting interior, neat handling Refined engine and gearbox
Cons Some detail missteps beneath the surface
Crossover maxes out on style, practicality and economy.

Cons Automatic gearboxes sap power Suspension could be more comfortable Range-topping engines underwhelming
The Jeep Renegade offers distinctive styling and decent practicality, but most rivals make it feel agricultural.
Pros Plenty of standard equipment Good safety rating Genuine off-road ability
Cons Unsettled ride Awful refinement Comparatively expensive
Pros Feels like a proper off-road application of hybrid tech – and it works well off road Preserves the Renegade’s plucky charm. It’s good fun to drive at times
Cons Hybrid system doesn’t tame the Renegade’s rough-hewn temperament as a road car It also adversely affects carrying practicality, which was already in slightly mean supply
