Seven Kbb.com ‘Top 10’ Awards Go to Four Chrysler, Jeep Vehicles

FCA, parent company to the Chrysler and Jeep family, has been honored with seven "Top 10 awards" by the editors of Kelley Blue Book. The 2015 Jeep Renegade, the newest model in the family, was named to three lists. The best-selling 2015 Jeep Wrangler was named to two 10 Best lists, including the Coolest Cars list, an honor it shared with its cousin, the Fiat 500 Abarth. The 2015 Chrysler 200 was named one of the best sedans.

Always a favorite, it’s not a big surprise to learn that the Jeep Wrangler made the list of the 10 Best SUVs. The Wrangler is a best-seller, offering unique durability and off-roading capability. It also starts at a remarkably low price, making it affordable for more consumers. The Wrangler didn't make the list alone this year, since the newest Jeep also made the grade. Earning its spot as one of the 10 Best SUVs Under $25,000, the 2015 Jeep Renegade seems to be making a big impact.

Editors at Kelley Blue Book noted the Jeep Renegade offers more than the style of its charming retro-modern looks. It's nimble with the ability to be comfortable on the road and yet capable of venturing off-road. It also offers open-air driving similar to its Wrangler brother. The Renegade has unique removable roof panels, which makes passengers feel like they are riding in a convertible. The price starts out very low, making it one of the most budget-smart SUVs.

The Renegade was also named to the 10 Favorite New-for-2015 Cars list. In a year that saw the introduction of 50 new models, this is definitely an achievement. As the reviewers note in the KBB review, the Jeep Renegade offers more than its affordable price tag. It's practical and efficient. It's also tough and durable, making it truly worthy of the name Jeep.

As one of the 10 Best AWD Vehicles Under $25,000, the Renegade has the advantage of Jeep engineering. The unique all-wheel-drive system features Active Drive Low. The Renegade also offers a trail-ready trim. The Renegade Trailhawk edition has been tested and affirmed by Car and Driver and Automobile magazine.

The 2015 Jeep Wrangler and the 2015 Fiat 500 Abarth made the list of the 10 Coolest Cars under $25,000. The Wrangler is a rare breed: an open-air off-roader. The styling, which is a blend of tough stuff and iconic flair, has changed over the years, but it remains unique. Kelley Blue Book editors remarked that the Wrangler is built for those who blaze their own path rather than follow the leader. Calling it legendary, they recommended the open-air, open-mind Wrangler.

The 2015 Chrysler 200 was named one of the 10 Best Sedans Under $25,000. The reviewers noted a number of positive aspects. This included the elegant interior, the appealing connectivity and entertainment options, and the quiet, smooth ride. To sum it up, the reviewers called the 200 an enjoyable highway cruiser. The 200 has also received accolades from other reviewers such as the Car Connection, which gave a "Go" to this all-new edition.
