You want to drive outside your comfort zone with a compact SUV to explore the unknown locations of Aiken, Graniteville, or North Augusta, SC. Are you unsure about which of these capable vehicles is right for you? Then, the team at Miracle Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram is here to help you out.
Our dealership is committed to making sure you get the right vehicle for you. We’ve put together this Jeep Renegade vs. Subaru Crosstrek comparison so you can get the information you need about the vehicle you want.
TRIM LEVELS
STANDARD TOUCHSCREEN
BLIND SPOT MONITORING
Smartphone integration allows you to make and receive phone calls and access the playlists saved to your phone. Infotainment systems keep you informed and entertained. As such, tech is a necessary onboard feature of any vehicle today.
Whether you’re on the road to parts unknown or just on your morning commute to work, you need a means to stay connected and in the know. Both the Jeep Renegade and the Subaru Crosstrek provide:
Although they each have a touchscreen display, the Renegade’s Uconnect® 4C NAV system has an 8.4-inch touchscreen compared to the 7-inch screen in the Crosstrek. The Jeep also offers available Amazon Alexa integration. That way, you can start your car or send directions right from your living room with nothing but a phrase. Unfortunately, the Subaru goes without that ability.
Every road trip, whether five minutes or five hours, deserves its own playlist. Beginning with their standard systems, the Crosstrek provides four speakers. While that may be sufficient for some drivers, your car-aoke sessions will be more enjoyable with the six speakers found in the Renegade.
If the audiophile in you needs crystal-clear sound, then you can opt for upgraded audio systems in either model. The Jeep’s enhanced Premium Audio System with nine speakers, for example, will transform the listening experience for all passengers on board.
Of course, the most aspect of any vehicle is related to protecting you and everyone on board. As such, you’ll want to be confident and have peace of mind whenever you slip behind the wheel of the Renegade or the Crosstrek.
The outdoors are unpredictable, so you need a vehicle that’s prepared for anything. Both models have several brand-specific versions of these standard safety features:
The Jeep Renegade, however, has an arsenal that includes over 75 standard and available safety features. Among them are Active Braking and Blind Spot Monitoring and Rear Cross Path Detection, which come standard on the Jeep Renegade but are only available as options on the Crosstrek.
The Renegade also has features that are not even available on the Crosstrek, like Parallel and Perpendicular Park and Exit Assist. These features will direct you with audible and visual cues for acceleration, braking, and gear shifting while controlling the steering to help you park.
Without this handy feature on the Crosstrek, you’ll be on your own when it comes to getting in and out of those tricky city parking spots.
When you get a new vehicle, you want it to feel like yours. You want a vehicle that fits your personality and your family. Let’s see what these models have to offer when it comes to customization.
The Renegade and the Crosstrek each have five available trims. So, you’ll be able to choose the Jeep or the Subaru that best fits your needs and driving style.
If it’s exterior customization you’re after, the Renegade has six available colors, including:
While the Crosstrek also has a variety of paints available, none are as bold and sunshine bright as the Solar Yellow of the Renegade.
Plus, you’ll be able to further customize your Renegade with available stripes and decals by Mopar®. If you enjoy mountain biking, the “BMX” decal is designed for you. If you prefer shredding some snow, the “SnowBoard” decal can be added to your SUV.
Unfortunately, you’re unable to customize your Subaru Crosstrek with similar decals that can add more pizzazz to your daily drive.
When you’re ready to start getting out on the trails around Aiken, Graniteville, or North Augusta, SC, either the Jeep Renegade or the Subaru Crosstrek would be a great on- and off-road companion. However, with more options available, you can truly make the Renegade anything you want it to be.
