Jeep is set to launch the North Star special edition for its popular Renegade and Compass models, marking a significant milestone of one million units sold in Europe by the end of 2024. This new edition embodies Jeep’s signature adventurous spirit, combining rugged capability with refined style and cutting-edge hybrid technology.
The North Star edition is designed as a tribute to the Renegade and Compass’s success, showcasing Jeep’s commitment to innovation and sustainability. Positioned strategically within the Jeep lineup, North Star fills the gap between the functional Altitude trim and the premium Summit level, offering a balanced blend of sophistication and practicality.
A Tribute to Rugged Elegance
Eric Laforge, Head of the Jeep brand in Enlarged Europe, emphasized the significance of these models, stating, “Jeep Renegade and Compass are essential pillars of the brand’s global success, especially in Europe. Reaching the milestone of one million units sold underscores their impact in the region, as they have attracted hundreds of thousands of new ‘jeepers’ over the years.”
The North Star edition enhances the brand’s legacy by combining the core strengths of both models—robustness and style—into a unified, unique package. The edition features durable, high-resistance seating materials, including Cloth and Vinyl options for the Compass and long-lasting Cloth for the Renegade, offering superior durability compared to standard trims.
Sophisticated Design Meets Iconic Jeep Spirit
The North Star trim maintains the Compass and Renegade’s iconic design language, adding a sophisticated Two-Tone color scheme. The edition showcases a striking black accent throughout, from the 18-inch wheels on the Compass and 17-inch on the Renegade to the sleek interior details. Notable features include the dedicated Hood Decal, designed to reduce sun glare, and the exclusive Technogreen paint, a dark metallic green that seamlessly integrates with the vehicle’s black accents.
This edition also includes a standard dual-pane sunroof, offering an open-air driving experience that is synonymous with Jeep’s adventurous essence. The sunroof, finished in contrasting black, highlights Jeep’s commitment to freedom and exploration.
Hybrid Powertrains Lead the Way
Jeep’s North Star edition is exclusively available with hybrid powertrains, featuring the Hybrid 48V and 4xe options. This decision reflects Jeep’s dedication to eco-friendly technology, as the brand shifts away from conventional engines in this series to reduce its environmental impact. The integration of advanced hybrid systems showcases Jeep’s forward-thinking approach, aligning with global trends for sustainable and efficient mobility solutions.
Additional features of the North Star edition include sleek roof rails for enhanced cargo versatility, LED fog lamps for better visibility in challenging conditions, and privacy glass that adds a touch of sophistication. Advanced front and rear parking sensors, along with parallel and perpendicular park assist, provide added convenience for urban maneuvering.
Jeep’s North Star edition offers a refined yet adventurous driving experience, combining rugged capability with style and innovation. As orders open soon, the brand continues to celebrate its iconic models while embracing a sustainable future for the Jeep community across Europe.
