BANNED | ![]() I saw this day before yesterday in Dubai. Took a few minutes to quickly photograph it. It is absolutely perfect as a vehicle overall for my kind of needs and if indeed, this comes to India in the near future and is priced in a fair and equitable manner, then I will surely look at this as my next upgrade, in preference to all the other vehicles around... ![]() |

BANNED | ![]() A heck of a vehicle in a heck of a spec. Surely if it comes to India this will be easily 30 Lacs. But certainly worth looking at/ aspiring to as my next upgrade. Definitely better by far in comparison to the standard boring VW's and Volvo's and Audi's and Mercs and Beemers in my book! Last edited by shankar.balan : 24th April 2016 at 19:07. |

Looks like the pictures were taken in front of "Festival Tower" next to Intercon, Crowne Plaza hotels in Dubai. True, it's a Compact SUV with the DNA of a REAL SUV unlike so called many other Compact SUVs available in the market which IMO are nothing but pumped up hatchbacks in disguise. When you go through the specs, It looks like this car is capable of doing extreme off-roading with ease as well as can give one the comfort of city driving. | |

It was taken at Festival Tower. and yes, this vehicle is the "real thing" - one day when it comes to India it is definitely a serious contender for my next upgrade. | |

| ![]() This has got that killer looks with all essential SUV features and with the right pricing near to XUV or Creta or Duster top variants, this will become a hit. But they have to give focus equally on the number of sales and service network to be on par with the competition. If they are watching on what happened to SCross and EcoSport with the price corrections, they should take a wise decision. If all these falls in place, I am also a contender. |

Also, the spec illustrated in my earlier post, won't come cheap. Im pretty sure we're looking at Yeti territory - around 30 Lac on road. I hope they launch the Renegade with the brilliant Sirius XM Radio set up and help with subscriptions too! ![]() | |

I want one already! I really hope it comes in at a good price and in sufficient types and variants to suit most enthusiastic Jeep people! Really, this is one heck of an upgrade for me to aspire to. ![]() | |

| ![]() I am also eagerly looking forward to this as my next upgrade only if Fiat has plans to launch here, as of now a new C-SUV is supposed to be launched next year, this does not feature in their India plans |

| ![]() Looks rather big. Almost the size of Scorpio Isn't Renegade in the same class as the Yeti? It wouldn't be an upgrade in the strictest sense, right? |

While the Yeti is a pretty good machine overall, for me personally, I love Jeeps and always have done right from childhood and if the Jeep Renegade does come to India at a fair price, then Im going to seriously consider it. I absolutely loved driving the Jeep Cherokee Latitude in America on my last visit. That was a gorgeous vehicle. In this sense it will be an upgrade for me, on account of its proven capability and toughness and JEEP DNA. Again Im saying, its a Jeep! For me that itself is enough. All the other Quasi SUV things are not Jeeps! Last edited by shankar.balan : 6th May 2016 at 15:25. | |
