About a month ago, we showed you the Euro-spec 2019 Jeep Renegade that made it's debut at the Turin Auto Show in Italy. Then we were the first to spot the North American model, without its camouflage on the streets of Metro Detroit. Now we have the latest information on the smallest Jeep in the FCA US lineup.

For the 2019 model year, the popular Jeep Renegade is getting some fantastic updates. First and foremost, it will receive new front fascias. The upper fascia is updated for all trims and the lower is updated for all the non-Trailhawk models. All Renegades receive a new grille surround.

The biggest news is all is FCA is quietly debuting the new 1.3L Turbo direct injected GSE engine to the North American market! This little engine should have 20 more horsepower and the previous 1.4T along with 20 to 30 more ft-lbs of torque. All engine will be mated to a 9-speed automatic transmission, which is standard on Trailhawk and Limited models. All Renegades with the 9-speed automatic transmission, will feature Electronic Stop Start (ESS) system and the non-Trailhawk models will receive Active Grille Shutters to improve economy.

A newly added but optional Advanced Technology Group featuring Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Parallel and Perpendicular Park Assist, and Front Park Sensors.

The 2019 Jeep Renegade is already a popular little Jeep. We think the updates for 2019 model year are going to bring this small Jeep to the top of its class. The 2019 Jeep Renegade Limited will be the first model offered and ordering should begin this month.
 
And P1P4 PHEV for MY2020. GSE T4 + additional 60 HP. Hmh, it could be a 60 kW.

@redriderbob

Will GSE T4 be a only engine offered in North America?
 
I honestly don't know at this moment about the non-NAFTA market @Bili

I know what will be offered outside of NAFTA or at least in EMEA region.
P1P4 will certainly be a future option. P4 is a e-axle.

I'm asking if this new GSE T4 is the only engine for a NAFTA market?
They will not offer 2.4 in the future?

The 2.4L is standard now on the 2019 Renegade. 1.3L will be optional on Latitude. Its standard on Limited and Trailhawk.

The 2019 Jeep Renegade Limited is available for order this month. Limited starts production 9/3 and Trailhawk will start production on 10/5.

They will still be building 2018 Sport and Latitude models alongside the 2019 Limited and Trailhawk. Until late November. 2019 Sport and Latitude models will start production in late November and will feature the standard 2.4L powertrains for those models. LED headlight and foglamps as well as the 1.3L will be optional on Latitude at that time.
 
Those are some good updates.

Addition of ACC is cool too.
