    Just read an article on TheFastLaneCar.com and in it, they say the all new 2015 Jeep Renegade made its official North American debut on Monday, January 19, 2015 in northern California. They even have an exclusive interview with the Renegade’s head designer Mark Allen and you can see it in the link below.

    I should also note that TFL states:

    "TFLcar will bring our driving impressions on and off the road to you when the embargo lifts at 12:01am ET on Friday, January 23, 2015. Pricing information is also embargoed. Stay tuned as TFLcar brings you video reviews and pricing details very shortly. For another dose of Renegade information, check out this insider TFLcar video walk-around of the 2015 Jeep Renegade with Jeep’s head designer, Mark Allen."

    Needless to say, we should be hearing pricing and be able to order these by the end of the week!!

    LOL!! The embargo thing does make sense and they were able to get an interview with Mark when I couldn't - one can hope it's true :)

    LOL!! That would have been too informative. No, nothing on MPG or even price - they must be embargoed too.

    Well this is good news. I must have missed the embargo. Do you know why it was embargoed?

    Not 100% sure but my best guess is that it was because the Renegade is an import. It's probably why we don't have any MPG info as that's determined by the feds. Pricing is probably determined after taxes and tariffs are determined as well.

    Would have loved to listen in on the conversation from inside the Jeep--while they were driving. I want to see and hear people's impressions of its ride and performance.

    I feel you jeepers in the US have been let down somewhat by FCA regarding the all new jeep Renegade availability information pricing and mpg etc.
    You are all very loyal to the jeep brand so I think you guy's dererved better.
    Do you agree or not.
