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
Engine: 2.4L Tigershark MultiAir I-4
Transmission: 9-speed automatic
Drivetrain: FWD or 4x4
Horsepower: 180
Torque: 175 lb-ft
Kia Soul LX
Engine: 2.0L Nu Atkinson I-4
Transmission: IVT
Drivetrain: FWD
Horsepower: 147
Torque: 132 lb-ft
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.
