    Check it out!! Just got a press release from FCA stating that they will have the following two Mopar-Equipped Jeep Renegades on display at the NAIAS 2015.

    Off-road Mopar-equipped Jeep Renegade
    The off-road Mopar-equipped Jeep Renegade is a triple threat — the small SUV arrives already fortified to stay true to the adventurous lifestyle and 4 x 4 capability for which the Jeep brand is known, is further geared to meet the demands of off-roading as a Trailhawk model and gets even more distinctive personality thanks to Jeep Performance Parts and prototype parts.

    The unique Commando Green skin of the Renegade is highlighted on both sides by large, bold body-side graphics that pick up on the “X”-shape styling of the taillamps, which come standard on the 2015 Renegade. The graphics also play off the Jerry can “X” design associated with first-generation military Jeep vehicles.

    In a nod to the Motor City roots of the NAIAS, a map of Detroit decorates the Mopar Topographical Hood decal, a popular new customizable Mopar accessory introduced last year.

    The satin black wheels feature a single spoke trimmed in Colorado red, while tow hooks that come standard at the front and rear of the Trailhawk model also receive the same treatment. Cross rails and a Mopar roof basket — perfect for carrying gear to the trail or sport equipment back home — are satin black, with a gloss black body side rail.

    A concept skid plate, prototype rock rails, rear valance and production roof rails equip the Jeep brand’s new small SUV to handle off-road obstacles, and are neatly tied together by a matching neutral grey satin color. Additional protection underneath is provided by a production Mopar skid plate kit. Jeep badging at the front and rear also is trimmed in neutral grey. The Jeep name is laser cut on the prototype rock rails, which are made to “pop” further with painted red edges.

    Heading inside, the trail-ready capabilities of the Renegade are balanced with premium interior appointments, including Katzkin leather seat covers. HVAC bezels, speaker grilles and the center console are highlighted in Commando Green, matching the exterior. The wheel, shifter and door lever receive satin black trim, with all bright interior badging finished in neutral grey.

    Jeep Authentic Accessories round out the modifications, including Mopar slush mats in the front and rear to protect the interior. A Mopar cargo tray provides additional storage space, and Mopar doorsills are emblazoned with the Jeep logo.

    Urban Mopar-equipped Jeep Renegade
    The urban Mopar-equipped Jeep Renegade uses a selection of Jeep Authentic Accessories to elevate the fresh styling and energetic appearance of the newest entry to the Jeep brand lineup, creating the perfect street vehicle for youthful city and suburban dwellers who also desire 4 x 4 capability for when maps end but the trails continue.

    Built from the Renegade Limited model, the inspired, stylish Anvil paint of the Renegade is set off dramatically with distinct Omaha orange touches, including attention-grabbing orange pockets featured on the satin black wheels. Mirror caps, grille rings, taillamp surrounds and roof rails also are accented Omaha orange. At the rear, a Mopar hitch bike carrier pulls two-wheeled forms of transportation to the park or mountain trail.

    Behind the wheel, Katzkin leather seats upgrade the driving experience. As with the off-road Renegade, modifications to the exterior influence the interior of the urban Renegade. Omaha orange highlights the HVAC bezels, speaker grilles and the center console.

    Personalization inside is completed with Jeep Authentic Accessories — a premium carpet mat, carpet cargo mat and Jeep logo-decorated door sills.

    I know these are just renderings but I'm really liking that green color and the anvil with the orange accents! :)

    Very awesome! How do we find out if they'll have any on display at other auto shows? The St. Louis Auto Show is January 24 weekend. I want to go and see if I can see one in person, but not even sure they'll have any there. I'm (im)patiently waiting for these to hit US soil. Cannot wait to get one!

    Still waiting to see a Renegade at my local Jeep dealer. They missed out on a quick sale though, I needed a compact car with automatic back in December and ended up buying a Fiat 500 with the 1.6 and 6-speed auto. Thing's more of a go cart than even the more expensive Mini!

    Hey, the Trailhawk one is cool, looks like they have the same extra lift as the SEMA models did.

    Is anyone going to the Detroit Auto Show that can measure the front of that roof rack so we can see what size light bar would fit on it?

    If possible, can you measure both the width and height, where the forward light bar would mount please.

    What sucks is that I really thought I would have a Renegade by now so that I could tinker around with it in person. Had I known we'd still have no clear idea of when it was going to be released, I may have considered flying out to Detroit to see these Mopar enhanced ones. Oh well. If there's anyone else ou there who is going, I too would love to see some photos and get some measurements :)

    So, I just found this shot of the green Renegade on AllPar from the show and I have to say that I'm disappointed it isn't wearing BFG MT's like is shown in the illustration. Otherwise, it looks great.

    Here's a shot of the anvil one - it looks good too.

    Very cool, but the last thing I want on my hood is a map of Detroit. ;)

    LOL!! I don't know why I had just assumed it was a map of Moab like the rest of their maps. That it's of Detroit is too damn funny!
