Where possible, travel companies have been promoting fewer vacations and more staycations in 2020, and Jeep created a hanging hotel of its own to promote the hybrid Jeep Renegade. Hanging hotels are usually set up on picturesque cliffsides but to create the Renegade Motel, Jeep partnered with The O2 in London, creating a sky-high accomodation that sits almost 250 feet above the ground.
Guests have their chance to win a one-night stay for two and the experience will give them the chance to drive to the "motel" above the entertainment complex in the Jeep Renegade. While visiting The O2, guests will have the chance to experience the roofwalk, dining, 24-hour concierge service and features like WiFi hotspot and Amazon Alexa connectivity that take cues from the hybrid model.
