Willowbrook Chrysler brings different SUV types to BC, helping our customers find the perfect match for their specific needs. The 2021 Jeep Renegade North and Kia Soul LX, for example, offer efficiency and roominess in the compact class. These vehicles occupy a similar market, but one stands out when it comes to negotiating off-road conditions and slippery roads. Jeep Renegade North
Engine: 2.4L Tigershark MultiAir I-4
Transmission: 9-speed automatic
Drive Type: 4x4 with Active DriveÂ

Working alongside the traction management system of 2021 Renegade is the full-time Jeep Active Drive 4x4. It boosts grip by powering all the wheels. However, when conditions are good, it disconnects the back axle to improve fuel economy.
The 2021 Jeep Renegade North also offers 203 mm of ground clearance and approach and departure angles of 21 and 32 degrees, respectively. To find out more, contact our BC dealership today.

The 2021 Jeep Renegade Sport and Kia Soul LX are perfect starter SUVs for BC drivers who want practicality in a smaller package. These crossovers can deliver much of the utility provided by their larger peers, making them ideal compromises. However, one of the two offers more power and a higher level of capability.Jeep Renegade Sport

The 2021 Jeep Renegade Sport produces more hp and torque than the Kia, and its available 4x4 drivetrain helps it conquer dirt roads and slippery pavement with ease. The 2.4L TigerShark brings enough power to pull a trailer weighing up to 907 kg. The Soul lacks these towing capabilities, putting owners at a disadvantage when they want to use their vehicle for utility tasks.Â
Additionally, the 2021 Renegade Sport offers excellent all-season, every-surface stability. The Selec-Terrain Traction Management System comes standard on all 4x4 models. It provides specific drivetrain settings for modes such as Snow, Sand, and Mud.

The 2021 Jeep Compass Limited (available at Willowbrook Chrysler) and 2021 Honda HRV LX are light, driver-friendly versions of their larger siblings.

Engine: 2.4L Tigershark I-4

The 4x4 system makes the Compass Limited a standout, and features like ABS, stability and traction control, and yaw correction ensure that you always retain command of the vehicle.
