Jeep Renegade Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Comment
	Given the Jeep Renegade's far-from-aero shape and relatively large, 2.4-liter engine, it should come as little surprise that, even with a nine-speed automatic transmission, its EPA ratings of 21 mpg city, 29 mpg highway are significantly lower than those for most competitors. The Cherokee, though 600 pounds heavier, earns the same ratings with the same power train. Opt for a turbocharged 1.4-liter engine and the six-speed manual it is paired with, and the Renegade's ratings improve to 24/31 (with either front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive). The 2.4 with front-wheel drive manages 22/31. In comparison, when fitted with an automatic transmission and all-wheel drive the Chevrolet Trax achieves 24/31, the HR-V 27/32. and the Subaru Crosstrek 26/34. In my real-world suburban driving the Renegade's trip computer reported averages ranging from 19 to 25 mpg, and usually towards the lower end of this range. The Trax's trip computer on the same roads (but with warmer temps) reported averages between 30 and 40, and most often around 36-37. The Trax did not have all-wheel drive, but this shouldn't explain more than two-to-three mpg. The HR-V and CX-3, tested with all-wheel drive, tended to average about 35 and 33, respectively. The Renegade isn't in the same league. Some much larger SUVs have been better. see full Jeep Renegade review

2008	4dr SUT 292-horsepower 4.6L V8 6-speed automatic 4WD w/low range	99 Dodge Durango with 5.9 V8 got better fuel economy with same driving habits. Expected better with smaller V8 and 6 speed trans. see full Ford Explorer Sport Trac review
2008	4dr SUT 210-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD w/low range	Terrible. I've owned fullsize pickups and SUV so I know what to expect. I've never seen the average mpg display read over 15mpg for the six months I've owned it. The main reason I bought this was the combination AWD and 4WD transfer case, but it doesn't have a 2 wheel drive position like my Sierra did. Boy do I miss that, I averaged 20 mpg per tank. see full Ford Explorer Sport Trac review
2007	4dr SUT 292-horsepower 4.6L V8 6-speed automatic 4WD w/low range	highway mileage is very good, better than my lighter V6 Ranger; 21mpg on the highway @ 75mph on flat road. City, with the remote start in winter, with the AWD kicking in, and lead foot acceleration nets me 13mpg. A light foot can get 15mpg city see full Ford Explorer Sport Trac review
2002	4dr SUT 203-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic RWD	I think we all wish for 30 mpd-thats unrealistic when you have 10000+ lbs on the road when towing. see full Ford Explorer Sport Trac review
