Insight summary

Jeep Renegade is a scarce model in this snapshot, with 24,348 represented vehicles and 0.06% of the active UK pool tracked by AutoRank. For the last 5 years, it has a pass rate of 80.5% from 156,698 MOT tests, with a reliability score of 47. The current pool shows an average of 67,664 miles and an average age of 8.8 years, while mature-fleet mileage is estimated at 75,656 miles. Diesel leads the fuel split, followed by petrol, and the most frequent defect themes are track rod ends, tyre condition and windscreen damage. The practical read is that the Jeep Renegade looks like a solid used-car baseline rather than a rare find, with age, mileage and common wear items doing most of the explaining.
