Hi,
Last weekend I went off roading in Steinbourg Off Road Park (France) and I tried to evaluate the Renegade TH climbing ability (Jeep does not rate it).
As you can see on the attached photos, I stooped in a hill climb with 31º (60%) and tried to start to climb it. Although some wheels spined a little (diagonal wheels), the Jeep moved forward without any difficult.
I had selected the Sand mode (Rock cuts to much power, mud also performs well for hill climb), and the Renegade is the Trailhawk (stock) 2.0 Turbo Diesel that has 260lbf/350Nm of torque at 1750rpm.
My question is: does anyone knows the max Climbing gradient, in a good traction surface, for this vehicle?
Best regards,
Bruno
