2019 model year

In June 2018, the Renegade was updated with some slight aesthetic touches: the front and rear bumpers have been redesigned, new LED headlamps (their design is inspired by the ones used for the Wrangler) were adopted, and the front grille is larger.

The infotainment system was upgraded with a new, more up-to-date processor and a more generous display that varies from 7" to 8.4" in the navigator version. The displays are all multitouch and the customizable menus also offer the possibility to adjust the air conditioning. Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility was introduced.

The Latitude version now also has a USB jack on the back of the armrest dedicated to passengers sitting in the rear seats.

The European version introduced the new gasoline engines of the Global Small Engine (FireFly) family produced by FCA Poland Powertrain in Bielsko Biala (POLAND) in two versions: 1.0 L Turbo 3-cylinder 120 hp with direct injection, Multiair system and GPF filter, and 1.3 L Turbo Multiair with direct injection and GPF filter 110 kW and 132 kW. The 1.0 L is available with a 5-speed manual transmission and front-wheel drive, the 1.3 L with a 6-speed manual transmission, a 6-speed automatic double clutch or a 9-speed ZF automatic with front or 4-wheel drive. The diesel engines introduced the SCR system and are approved Euro6D-Temp.[19]

In September 2018, the facelifted Renegade was unveiled for the North American market (MY2019), which introduced the 1.3 L GSE Turbo Multiair engine with 132 kW as a replacement for the 1.4 L Fire Turbo Multiair, while the 2.4 L Tigershark engine remains available. The North American model has the same changes applied to the European model.[20]

In October 2018, the updated version for the South American market produced by FCA of Goiana (Pernambuco) in Brazil was introduced and presents only aesthetic updates with the adoption for all versions of the Trailhawk bumpers; the front and rear headlamps remain those of the previous model. The engines for the South American market are the 1.8 L E.Torq Evo gasoline and the 2.0 L Multijet diesel.[21]

2022 changes

For 2022, all models receive a standard U Connect 4C 8.4-inch (8.4") touchscreen infotainment system, which includes SiriusXM Satellite Radio, SiriusXM Travel Link, and SiriusXM Guardian services, all with included trial subscriptions, as well as integrated GPS navigation and HD Radio. A new (RED) Edition, in partnership with Product Red, is also available.

For the base Sport trim, the Beige interior color option has been discontinued, and the Jeep Active Safety Group now comes as standard equipment on all Renegade models. Nineteen-inch (19") tires and diamond-cut aluminum-alloy wheels are now available on the Limited trim when equipped with the optional Sun, Sound, and Wheels Package, which adds a dual-pane power panoramic moonroof and a nine-speaker Alpine premium amplified surround-sound audio system with a subwoofer.[22]

The 2.4 L engine option was discontinued for the US market.

2023 changes

For 2023, the Renegade receives a refresh for the Brazilian market. Featuring revised front-end styling and a revised 1.3L "Turbo-Flex" Turbocharged Inline Four-Cylinder (I4) gasoline engine known as the "T270", the new model is also expected to debut for the rest of the world for the 2023 model year.[23]

For 2023, in the US market, the entry level Sport trim and all front-wheel drive versions of the Renegade are dropped, thus making all-wheel drive standard across the board. Latitude is now the entry trim level on the Renegade, and Altitude, Trailhawk, and Limited remain available.

Also for the 2023 model year, the Latitude-based Upland trim returns to the lineup, adding Trailhawk-inspired exterior styling elements to the base Latitude model. The interior includes bronze stitching.

2024 changes

The Renegade was discontinued in the US and Canada after the 2023 model year, following years of decreasing sales.[24] It continues to be sold elsewhere, such as Europe, Mexico, and South America.

For 2024, the Renegade receives an array of updates. Changes include a larger 10.1" touchscreen with higher-resolution backup camera, larger 10.25" digital display cluster, and a new steering wheel sourced from the Compass. Android Auto and Apple CarPlay become standard and new USB-A and USB-C ports are added. On the exterior, the foglamps and taillamps are upgraded to LED units, and new 17" and 18" alloy wheels are introduced on higher trim levels.

Also for this year, only hybrid powertrains (e-Hybrid and 4xe) are available, with all ICE options dropped.
