Maybe that will be built on the old Patriot/Compass lines.

As a 3 door it doesn't look too bad at all. Not sure what demand is like but there is a RR Evoque 3 door, im sure people who can't even come close to affording one would love to scoop this up

 

[Jeepsix]

Where the heck are you guys finding this stuff? Although I seldom use the rear seat in my Patriot, the rear doors come in handy for loading and access to the rear. The 3-door looks nice.

 

[jiruns]

like the 3-door idea a lot, similar to Wrangler/Wrangler-Unlimited as a concept...the Renegade could be a huge win for Jeep with all its possibilities

 

[4x4]

interesting

it looks nice but i can say that not very many will buy it

 

[Canadianfalconer]

Can we see a white or silver trailhawk edition rendering please!?

 

[4x4]

they should do one with a targa roof and do a mini wrangler

 

[Jeepers]

I don't think it looks that great even. I don't really get what the appeal of a 3-door Renegade would be. It just makes things more difficult to get into the backseat, and I think that it makes the Renegade look incomplete. I don't think this will ever get made. I just don't know who would want this instead of the regular 4-door Renegade.

 

[4x4]

it would basically be a mini wrangler if they made the roof pop off

i could see that appeal

raise is a bit

throw some meaner tires on

feelin it?

I'd be into this being 6'2". My old '89 had long doors that sagged a bit over time, but what a great truck.

 

[Willy]

you know, at first I really wasn't into it at all but thinking about it again I don't see why they shouldn't sell a 3 door renegade. losing two doors really makes it look less cutesy, better proportions. They could have a huge hit for the guys who no one is selling small trucks to.


Think the people who used to buy rangers, s10s and Dakotas. Where has that market gone?

 

[4x4]

for a car of this size it works.

 

[jckevns]

I drive a 93 cherokee with 2 doors. I love not having back doors, ofcourse I dont have kids to haul around just dogs n they use the hatch. I would buy the 3door renegade

 

[snokat]

Looks a little like my wife's old '79 VW 2-door Rabbit, if that's possible.

 

[bunburry]

little three door could be a great run around vehicle! We've got the big rig for big stuff and long jaunts with everyone up north, but this 3 door renegade would be a little safer than a ity mini city car, still keep the wifey in good shape with AWD in the inclement stuff and return a decent mileage.

WIN, do it!

 

[4x4]

^ well guess you would be their first customer! i dont think the idea is impossible

but jeep will do what makes money first

so if a coupe does show up. it would be years later

I like the look. I have no real need for a 4 door. As long as FCA keeps the wheel base the same (not shorten it) I think it'll sell. I like the Cherokee (XJ) 2 door. This is a smaller version. Jeep should sell it for at least a couple years. Maybe start in the 2016 model year or in 2017 with the "Mid-Cycle Refreshing" per the JEEP 5 year plan.

It looks great as a coupe, I think there's a good market for it even now. For example, the Evoque, there's enough of those coupes out, im sure people who can't afford them would like to have a MUCH cheaper 2 door SUV. Great opportunity for Jeep

I've got to agree with you. It is a great opportunity for Jeep. It has a "Sporty" look to it as a 2 door. I would opt for a 2 door Trailhawk. I want the Renegade with a Diesel too, but that ain't happening soon. The Kia Sportage came as a 2 door, but I don't recall it being sold in the US. There was also the Isuzu Rodeo Sport 2 door. Like you said Tony, "It is a great opportunity for Jeep".
