"The Renegade has a layout that’s car-like (and car-based) but certainly not lacking in toughness or capability. While it has MacPherson struts with a full front cradle in front, in back, the Renegade gets a Chapman-style independent suspension that replaces the 500L’s twist-beam layout, as well as a stability control system that’s tuned for the different modes of SelecTrac—prepping it for top performance when the conditions turn muddy or snowy. Koni frequency selective dampers should help ride quality on coarse and washboard surfaces without hurting handling. And despite additions like stronger front frame rails, the new suspension, and other structural improvements, the Renegade is virtually the same weight as the 500L (around 3,250 pounds). All models get strong stopping power from four-wheel vented disc brakes, and the anti-lock system has a rough-road detection feature."
Sounds good so far...
