Jeep Renegade Concept - 2008 Detroit Auto Show
Using the same 200 kW electric motor as the Dodge ZEO concept, the renegade has a 64km range powered by lithium ion batteries.
The Renegade concept is slightly unique as it uses a pair of the 200kW electric engines, one on each axle to create a true 4X4.
The Renegade also has low gear mode and a locking differentials. Backing up the two electric engines is a Bluetec diesel “range-extender” engine that together with the electric motors gives it a remarkable fuel economy of 2.14L/100km.

64 km isn’t going to get you far into the mountains, so what the Hell’s the point?

Wow how the concept art lied the front of this thing is dingo ugly.
Sad weird looking bug thing with none of the practical design that has been a Jeep hallmark.

Yes I play halo or did that still doesn’t make this thing less ugly.
And I own and love my Jeep. And it’s a diesel.

May be it should use in-wheel motors for independent control over each wheel and better ground clearance?
