In this episode, we test out the fuel economy in the all new 2016 Jeep Renegade. Sporting a compact form factor, and a rugged four wheel drivetrain, the Renegade seems to be in a category of its own.

Our tester was equipped with a 2.4-litre 4-cylinder engine. Our tests yielded 211km on a half tank of gas and gave a decent average fuel economy of 10.8L/100km.

After using up a half tank of gas, we were able to fill it back up for $24.87 at a fuel cost of $1.02/liter. At that rate, expect to spend around $50 for a full tank of gas.
