Jeep Renegade and Wrangler Top Kelley Blue Book’s Most Awarded Vehicles of 2015!

Posted on September 21, 2015 by baysideadmin

Kelley Blue Book has put together their list of the most awarded vehicles of 2015 and it is most definitely a good thing for Jeep. Two from the Jeep line-up made the list. One of the oldest and most popular Jeeps, and one that is brand-new.

The obvious one is the Jeep Renegade. The little guy of the family is really getting a running start out of the gate. It has been catching on and is really starting to prove itself as the excellent starter SUV it was intended to be. It might be small in size, but it still nabbed plenty of awards from KBB including ’10 Coolest Cars Under $18,000’, ’10 Tech-Saviest Cars Starting Under $20,000’, and ’10 Most Fun SUVs.”

The other Jeep is the Wrangler, which is not really a surprise when looking at the critical history of the Wrangler. There is a reason it has stuck around in the public eye for so long and continues to be one of the best-selling vehicles under the Chrysler banner. Among its numerous awards from KBB, the 2015 Wrangler was on their ’10 Most Fun SUVs’, ’10 Coolest Cars Under $25,000’, and ’10 Best SUVs Under 25,000.’

Jeep has been extremely popular the last few months in the US. Seeing how just two of the Jeep vehicles have made so many popular lists according to Kelley Blue Book, it is easy to see why everyone wants a Jeep.

7 Must-Buy Reasons for the 2015 Jeep Renegade

Posted on September 16, 2015 by baysideadmin

The new Jeep Renegade is a new approach to the SUV from Jeep. It has been designed for newer drivers looking to gain entrance into the magical realm of Jeep. It is one of the company’s first attempts at a small SUV on this level and from the reviews and sales, it seems that the Renegade is starting to take off. To help promote the little guy even more, Jeep has 7 reasons you need to get yourself a Renegade.

Take on Any Challenge:

The joy of the Jeep is when the road less traveled is the road taken. The Renegade may seem small, but it is packed with all the features and capability associated with the Jeep brand. The Renegade also has the class-exclusive available Select-Terrain Dial with Auto, Snow, Sand, and Mud settings. The Trailhawk model comes with an additional Rock setting. No matter the model of Renegade, however, you’re still getting the same high quality.

Get Some Sun:

Another class-exclusive for the Renegade is the available My Sky open-air roof. Perfect for that summer day where you just want to feel the air rushing through and get some sun. This sun roof has another advantage; the panels can be removed and stored away in back letting the driver adjust as the weather dictates.

High-Quality Transmission:

The Renegade comes with one of Chrysler brand’s biggest developments in years; the nine-speed automatic transmission. It provides unparalleled efficiency, something that is important in helping younger buyers out at the gas pump.

Always See Where You’re Going:

Off-road or on-road, it is important to see what is going on up ahead. The Renegade’s class exclusive cornering fog lamps help with increased visibility in harsher conditions, including heavy fog, snow, and rainfall.

Performance Worthy of the Jeep Legend:

As stated before, the Renegade may be small but that hasn’t stopped the engineers from creating one of the most capable small SUVs on the market. The Renegade proudly wears the Trail Rated badge like the rest of the family and with best-in-class 4×4 capability and its two available Active Drive systems, the Renegade is ready for adventure.

High-Quality Technology:

The Uconnect system is one of the most popular in auto technology and the Renegade has it available on a 6.5-inch touchscreen. That gives the driver access to hands-free calling, GPS, and various music and radio choices.

Comfort in One of the Best Interiors:

The 2015 Jeep Renegade was named on Ward’s 10 Best Interiors for 2015. From the size of the interior to the materials used on the paneling and seating, comfort is important in the Renegade. To help even more, the Renegade has additional features such as available heated steering wheel and available dual-zone automatic climate control.

Jeep Sets June Sales Record: More Popular Than Ever!

Posted on July 6, 2015 by baysideadmin

One of the most remarkable success stories in the auto industry of late is the rise of the Jeep. Back when Chrysler was facing bankruptcy and its future was uncertain, nothing seemed further from thought than the idea that they’d be able to turn it around in the upcoming years. Since recovering, the success story of Chrysler is a fascinating one, and one of the main reasons for that bounce-back is due to a new found fever for Jeeps.

CheatSheet.com examined this new wave of love for Jeep. June was an amazing month for the Jeep brand. It had the best June sales ever. Many Jeep vehicles had record-setting months including the new Jeep Cherokee and the ever-popular Jeep Wrangler. Even the newest member of the family, the Jeep Renegade, had an increase of 10% from May.

This is an incredible feat considering that Jeep, back when the company was going under, was struggling with American sales. Now, it’s not just selling here in the States, but has caught on overseas. Jeep recently invested in a new plant for production in India, showing that Jeep is one of the bigger international favorites.

The future seems even brighter. The Dodge Charger and Challenger SRT Hellcat experienced a higher than expected sales demand and Jeep is looking to capitalize on the popularity of the Hellcat name. A Grand Cherokee Trackhawk Hellcat is expected next year. This new SUV has potential to put some change into the market and have competitors scared.

What is it you’d like to see from Jeep in the coming years? What do you think they need to do to keep the momentum going?
