Does the 2016 Jeep Renegade 4WD need premium gas?
It depends on the trim. Some versions take premium and some take regular — check your exact engine/transmission below.
| Trim (engine / transmission) | Fuel | MPG | Fuel/yr |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2.4L 4-cyl, Automatic 9-spd, AWD | REGULAR | 24 | $2,600 |
| 1.4L 4-cyl, 6-spd manual, AWD | PREMIUM | 27 | $2,850 |
The EPA records the fuel each version was tested on. Whether premium is strictly required or just recommended is an owner's-manual detail the EPA dataset doesn't include — so we don't guess it.
