Comparison Review

Comfort
Rear passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the GMC Terrain than in the Jeep Renegade. The Jeep Renegade offers just a little more front head- and legroom than the GMC Terrain, offering the driver and front passenger a bit more room and comfort.

Convenience
Due to the larger tank size and better fuel economy of the GMC Terrain, you will definitely be making fewer stops at the gas station than with the Jeep Renegade.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The GMC Terrain is somewhat more expensive than the Jeep Renegade.

Dimensions
Since the GMC Terrain is much slimmer than the Jeep Renegade, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. If you go with the GMC Terrain, you may be circling the block looking for a space large enough to park more often than with the Jeep Renegade.

Handling
The GMC Terrain has a larger turning radius than the Jeep Renegade, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
In terms of horsepower, it's a virtual tie between the GMC Terrain and the Jeep Renegade.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the GMC Terrain does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Jeep Renegade.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the GMC Terrain and the Jeep Renegade. The GMC Terrain has a roomier cargo area for putting your bags or other items than the Jeep Renegade.
