Jeep has rolled the hits out of their factories and onto show floors. The Cherokee has been a major success for the company and the Renegade is poised to make a major impact with the newer generation of Jeep buyers. What is next?
Automobile Mag spoke with Jeep President and CEO Mike Manley to ask that very question. The response is that something new may already be in the works for the next major Jeep.
“It’s literally halfway between the two,” Manley said referring to the Cherokee and Renegade. “It’s well-positioned from a size point of view between the two vehicles.”
Jeep needs new vehicles to fill in slots that will soon be empty when they follow the five-year plan. According to it, the Patriot and Compass will be put away for a while and something else will be taking their places.
As far as the styling goes, Manley was coy on what the look would be. Would it follow the newer stylized look present in the Cherokee and Renegade or would it be a call back to the boxy look of traditional Jeeps? Who knows, Manley is certainly not dropping any hints. For those longing for a classical look, I think you may be waiting, but it could be the case that the half-way point between the Cherokee and Renegade is an older look.

The 2015 Jeep Renegade is the new Jeep for a new generation. It has a great lore for its creation with the design team pulling their youngest designers in and tasking them with coming up with the Jeep they would want. The Renegade clearly has a stylish look and is aimed at bringing a younger crowd into the Jeep market. Turns out, however, that the designers also managed to sneak in some great easter eggs for the older Jeep fans.
The Herald-News has a break-down of all the hidden design nods they were able to locate. Many of the easter eggs are meant to point back to the creation of the Jeep with homages to the original Willys Jeep. One such is the “X” stamped onto the Renegade’s taillights to mimic the look of the jerry cans the old Willys Jeeps would carry.
Another call back to that older Jeep is in the form of a silhouette printed on the wheels and grille of the Renegade. More of these stamps are also on the inside of the tailgate and in the taillights. Another one that the article doesn’t note is that the Moab off-road is on the center tray.
That’s all that have been made known to the public for the time being, but there is no doubt to more being included in the Renegade’s design. We can’t wait to see what other things they included.
