Much like the commercial Hummer ripping off the military Humvee for its seemingly lack of actual ascetics, this Jeep® concept car deemed the Renegade is to be shown at the 2008 Detroit Auto Show.

2008 Jeep® Renegade Concept
The 2008 Jeep Renegade Concept is a sporty B-segment-sized two-seater ideally suited for the all-weather delights of off-roading and dune surfing. Featuring a cut-down speedster windshield, a roll bar, openings in the door lowers and a hose-out interior, it is an “eco-friendly” vehicle with minimized use of materials – designed for those who want to enjoy the earth while taking care of its future. The propulsion system combines a 40-mile lithium-ion battery pack and a small-displacement BLUETEC diesel engine. The result: fuel economy of more than 110 miles per gallon.

Whether or not this or any other concept hits the streets somewhat following the likeness of the famed Warthog from Halo, there’s only one thing that’s certain. Don’t go blaming bad A.I. if you happen to pick one of these up and end up in an accident.
