A FWD hybrid at that.
Yet we STILL don't have either of those 4XE hybrids here yet, just the power-focused Wrangler/Grand Cherokee 4XE's....
Ugh 😂

It is great to see Jeep is committed to the EU market. Jeep please don't forget the NA market!

JEEP needs these models more than the US considering how Strict the regulations are over there now.. Why arent they using the Renegades New 2022 Facia? or is that 2023 brazil only for now.

JEEP is a US brand. The US needs these models more than Europe. All new Jeeps should be sold in Jeep's home market, the US, first.

I think the US will get the updated front end next year as well from what I have seen the 2023 Renegades will have the same instrument panel as the 2022 4xE from Europe. I am hoping we get the 4xE here in the US as well.

But 1 of Jeeps Models isnt BUILT in Jeeps home market (Renegade) which makes it easier for It the Italy built Compass to share its Electric tech.

They should still come out with models for the US market first, even if they are produced in Italy. It's an insult to the significantly larger and longer term Jeep customer base in the US to do it any other way. Italian Jeeps are basically export oriented models, sales in Italy are a drop in the bucket.
