There will be an Access Jeep Below the Renegade

The compact SUVs of the B segment are the new compact SUVs of the C segment. The market maintains the predominance of the latter, but the small SUVs are becoming more and more prominent and the number of members in their ranks is increasing more and more. At FCA they are aware of this and that is why they are working on a new access Jeep that is located in the lower part of their range.

This is what is extracted from the statements of Mike Manley, CEO of Jeep: "A car smaller than the Renegade would be interesting for us and we are actively looking for it at this time." The reason for this decision lies in the direction that the market has taken: "We have seen the general movement in Europe towards smaller SUVs and there is also a potential market in Latin America."

Despite this, Manley has not given more details of the project, which is not an obstacle for the first speculations and assumptions to begin. Thus, although it is considered that it will use the same platform as the Jeep Renegade, it is most likely that a new, lighter platform will have to be used that better matches its compact dimensions. Jeep Renegade halo headlights are your optional accessories for replacement.

This is where the synergies of the group come in, seeking joint solutions with other FCA brands: Fiat. It is common for the Italian models to share a platform with the Jeep (the Renegade uses that of the Fiat 500X), so it is possible that the procedure will be repeated on a smaller scale, one of the options being the use of the future generation base. of the Fiat Panda.

Little more can be said at the moment, with June 1 being the date marked on the calendar, since it will be the day that the group reveals its strategy for the next five years.
