I like how they put the handle across the dash on the passenger side like that. It adds to the whole off-road thing and just looks good as well. Are the colored parts of the interior always matching the the outside of the car?

It does, although not a lot of people will actually use it for that purpose.

the renegade seems like a cool car

i have a feeling its going to be bigger than the encore though

off of pictures alone it seems like a more versatile vehicle that would be more practical.
seems like people could cross-shop it and the encore.

its a neat car. the more i read about it

the more it seems like a good option

especially like the awd option

but i am thinking this could be kind of expensive.

Here are the Renegades actual dimensions vs Encores...

Encore:
Length: 4,278mm
Width: 1,774mm
Height: 1,646mm

Renegade

Length: 4,231 mm
Width: 1,803 mm
Height: 1,689 mm

Nearly identical...

yea not too bad.

should be good to see how they compare

but lets see how much this renegade cost first.

read an article the other day that said it will start at around $18k, which isn't too bad at all, not bad when compared to encore pricing

that isnt confirmed though

It isn't confirmed but I think it is very close to what it will actually be priced at.
