2018 JEEP RENEGADE Owner handbook (in English)

MINIMUM GROUND CLEARANCE/TYPICAL ANGLES
"Minimum ground clearance" (reference A)
The clearance value is measured next to the lower edge of the differential. This value also defines those for the "Approach angle" the
"Departure angle" and the "Breakover angle".
Dimensions are expressed in mm and refer to the car equipped with its original tyres.
Front wheel drive (FWD) versions: 171 mm
Four-wheel drive (4WD) versions: 201 mm
Trailhawk versions with four wheel drive (4WD LOW): 225 mm
"Approach angle" (reference B )
The approach angle is determined by the horizontal line of the road surface and by the tangent line passing between the front wheel
and the most projecting low point of the car.

271

The wider the angle, the lower the chance to hit an obstacle with the body or chassis, climbing a steep slope or overcoming an
obstacle.
Front wheel drive (FWD) versions: 17.9°
Four-wheel drive (4WD) versions: 21°
Trailhawk versions with four wheel drive (4WD LOW): 30.5°
"Departure angle" (reference C)
The departure angle is determined by the same lines of the "Approach angle", and refers to the rear part of the car.
Front wheel drive (FWD) versions: 29.7°
Four-wheel drive (4WD) versions: 32.1°
Trailhawk versions with four wheel drive (4WD LOW): 34.3°
"Breakover angle" (reference D)
The value of the "Breakover angle" is linked to the ground clearance of the car and indicates the attitude of the car to overcome a
wedge, more or less steep, preventing the car from resting on the ground with the body or chassis after touching the wedge with its
lowest and most projecting parts (usually the underbody), because this would highly reduce wheel grip.
The wheels, without a suitable grip to the ground, will not have sufficient hold to move the car, and will surge.
The higher the ground clearance, the wider the breakover angle. Always bear in mind that the higher the ground clearance, the lower
the stability, due to a higher centre of gravity which reduces the side rollover angle.
Front wheel drive (FWD) versions: 21.2°
Four-wheel drive (4WD) versions: 24°
Trailhawk versions with four wheel drive (4WD LOW): 25.7°
