![]() ![]() These energy drinks qualify for the ALDI Twice As Nice Guarantee! This seems like a great deal as Amazon has this 24-pack of Red Bull Energy Drink 8.4oz cans priced around $23.54 shipped making for a final cost of 98¢ per can! We recently spotted a 4-pack of Summit Red Thunder 8.5oz cans for just $2.99 at ALDI – making each can just 74¢! Note that some readers have reported spotting these 4 packs for as little as $1.70 per 4 pack! If you are a fan of Red Bull Energy drinks, did you know that ALDI actually carries their own version of energy drinks called Summit Red Thunder Energy Drinks?Īvailable in both regular or sugar-free varieties, these energy drinks are surprisingly similar to Red Bull Energy Drinks but come with a much lower price tag. It is a niche that has not been deeply explored (that of the small, off-road competent luxo-truck), and Jeep has stolen a march in the segment with this Trailhawk variant.We love sharing new ALDI deals and finds! ![]() Ultimately, the market will decide if Jeep gets traction with the Renegade, and in many ways it deserves to sell well. All important stuff for a car charged with carving a new niche for the brand. Headlights that see around corners, just about the best rear camera I have experienced, and last but by no means least, great, progressive brakes. The car serves two very distinct and disparate masters and does it as well as can be expected.Īncillaries are well thought out. The suspension straddles the comfort/travel equation brilliantly, which is a big ask. Inner urban U-turns or tight bush track maneuvers will ensure a driver feels every metre of that. The turning circle leaves a little to be desired as well at 10.8 metres. The steering is sharp enough, but has that typically American over-assistance at the tiller. Then there's Jeep's new full-time four-wheel drive system – including Jeep Active Drive Low with 20:1 crawl ratio and 'Selec-Terrain' system with easily-switchable modes to tackle mud, snow, sand and rock. In practice, the choice of ratios keeps the car in the power at all times, and while those performance numbers are far from astounding, the optimum is almost always available. Nine-speeds really are the new black when it comes to transmission configurations (look to Mercedes-Benz on that front), but this is the first time we've seen one in a car of this ilk. Mated to that 2.4-litre petrol four-cylinder is the model specific nine-speed automatic transmission. This one lays claim to real off-road ability, rising from the gridlock of softies in the current domestic marketplace. Essentially, the others are soft-roaders. ![]() It's fair to say that it would need to, because we are talking about light SUV with one heck of a hefty price tag.Ĭentral to top-of-the-line status is the fact that the Trailhawk is the only Renegade to get AWD. The Trailhawk is the jewel in the Renegade crown, and it arrives packed with electro-goodies and classy equipment. Is it a case of style or substance? Does the Renegade tick all the boxes? It consists of the choice between two naturally-aspirated petrol four-cylinders – a base-model-only 81kW/152Nm 1.6-litre and a 129kW/230Nm 2.4-litre that is exclusive to the AWD Renegade Trailhawk tested here – and a 103kW/230Nm 1.4-litre turbo. Jeep's step into the light SUV segment hasn't been taken lightly. ![]()
