- Jeep launches a new limited-edition Renegade Willys in Brazil.

- Limited to 500 units, the Renegade Willys is priced above the standard Trailhawk.
Jeep has unveiled an updated Renegade for the Brazilian market, and while the interior and exterior remain unchanged, there’s a new special edition. The Jeep Renegade Willys, based on the top-tier Trailhawk trim, adds a nostalgic livery and a few exclusive extras.
As you can tell, the new special edition draws from the classic Jeep CJ Willys, with decals on the hood, front fenders, and D-pillars. It offers six color options, including the exclusive Recon Green shown here.

The roof and A-pillars are blacked out, complementing the five-spoke 17-inch alloy wheels wrapped in All-Terrain Plus Scorpion tires.
Interior tweaks include Willys embossing on the leather seats, side sills, and a standard sunroof. As a Trailhawk derivative, the Willys special edition boasts a raised suspension, 4×4 system with electronic differential lock, low mode, and terrain selector.
Since the debut of the facelifted Jeep Renegade in 2022, the Brazilian-spec model is exclusively available with a turbocharged 1.3-liter gasoline engine producing 185 hp (136 kW / 187 PS) and 270 Nm (199 lb-ft) of torque. Both Trailhawk and Willys trims feature a nine-speed automatic transmission that sends power to all four wheels.
The Willys-branded Renegade isn’t entirely new; a similar special edition was introduced for the 2019 model year. That version was based on the diesel-powered Longitude 2.0 4×4 and was limited to 250 units for the Brazilian market.
The 2025 Jeep Renegade Willys is limited to 500 units, making it less exclusive than its predecessor. Pricing starts at R$ 179,990 (US$ 31,795), R$ 6,000 (US$ 1,060) more than the Trailhawk. This year, Jeep cut prices on some Renegade trims in Brazil, though this came with a reduction in standard equipment.
Despite the facelifts and model year updates, the Jeep Renegade has been around since 2014, so time is ticking for its replacement. Jeep recently confirmed that a new generation will arrive in 2027, featuring a fully electric powertrain option and a starting price under $25k in the US.
