Jeep is known for its rugged and capable off-road vehicles, but the brand is also embracing the future of mobility with its new e-Hybrid models. The Jeep Avenger e-Hybrid is the latest addition to the electrified lineup, and it is now available in Europe. This small electric SUV combines the iconic Jeep design with a powerful and efficient plug-in hybrid system, offering a range of benefits for urban and adventure seekers alike. Here are some of the key features and advantages of the Jeep Avenger e-Hybrid.

The Jeep Avenger e-Hybrid is powered by a 1.3-liter turbocharged petrol engine and a 60-hp electric motor, delivering a total output of 190 hp or 240 hp, depending on the trim level. The electric motor is fed by an 11.4 kWh battery pack, which can be recharged in less than two hours using a 7.4 kW wallbox or a public charging station. The battery pack is located under the rear seats, and it does not compromise the interior space or the boot capacity of the Avenger.

The Jeep Avenger e-Hybrid can run in three different modes: Hybrid, Electric, and e-Save. In Hybrid mode, the system automatically switches between the petrol engine and the electric motor, optimizing fuel efficiency and performance. In Electric mode, the Avenger can travel up to 31 miles (50 km) on pure electric power, with zero emissions and a top speed of 81 mph (130 km/h). This mode is ideal for city driving, where the Avenger can take advantage of the low noise and the electric motor's instant torque. In e-Save mode, the system preserves the battery charge for later use, relying mainly on the petrol engine.

The Jeep Avenger e-Hybrid also features a Sport mode, which enhances the throttle response and the steering feel, and a 4xe mode, which activates the four-wheel drive system for improved traction and stability. The Avenger e-Hybrid is the only plug-in hybrid in its segment to offer a mechanical four-wheel drive system, which can distribute the torque between the front and rear axles according to the road conditions. The Avenger e-Hybrid also comes with the Selec-Terrain system, allowing the driver to choose from five modes: Auto, Snow, Mud, Sand, and Rock. These modes adjust the engine, transmission, brakes, and traction control settings to suit different terrains and scenarios.

The Jeep Avenger e-Hybrid retains the distinctive and recognizable Jeep design, with a boxy and muscular shape, a seven-slot grille, round headlights, and trapezoidal wheel arches. The Avenger e-Hybrid also features some exclusive details that distinguish it from the conventional Avenger models, such as the blue accents on the badges, the grille, and the wheel caps, the e-Hybrid logo on the front fenders, and the charging port on the left rear quarter panel. The Avenger e-Hybrid is available in four trim levels: Longitude, Limited, S, and Trailhawk. Each trim level offers different equipment and customization options, including various colors, wheels, and interior finishes.

The Jeep Avenger e-Hybrid has a spacious and comfortable interior, with a modern and functional dashboard, a digital instrument cluster, and a touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. The Avenger e-Hybrid also offers a range of advanced safety and convenience features, such as adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, blind spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert, forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, park assist, and a 360-degree camera. The Avenger e-Hybrid also has a generous boot capacity of 14.8 cubic feet (420 liters), which can be expanded to 37.7 cubic feet (1067 liters) by folding the rear seats.

The Jeep Avenger e-Hybrid is competitively priced in the European market, starting from €35,900 ($41,500) for the Longitude trim level and going up to €45,900 ($53,000) for the Trailhawk trim level. The Avenger e-Hybrid also benefits from lower taxes, incentives, and running costs compared to the conventional Avenger models, thanks to its lower CO2 emissions and fuel consumption. The Avenger e-Hybrid emits 44 g/km of CO2 and consumes 1.9 liters/100 km (123.8 mpg) of petrol in the WLTP cycle, which is significantly lower than the 143 g/km and 6.2 liters/100 km (37.9 mpg) of the Avenger 1.3 T4 150 hp model.

The Jeep Avenger e-Hybrid also offers a unique driving experience, combining the fun and freedom of a Jeep with the efficiency and sustainability of an electric vehicle. With its versatile and capable plug-in hybrid system, the Avenger e-Hybrid can tackle any terrain and situation, from the urban jungle to the wilderness. The Avenger e-Hybrid is also connected and smart, with a dedicated smartphone app that allows the driver to monitor and control various functions of the vehicle, such as the battery status, the charging schedule, the remote start, the climate control, and location.

The Jeep Avenger e-Hybrid is a new electric adventure for Europe, and it is part of Jeep’s global strategy to offer a full range of electrified models by 2025. The Avenger e-Hybrid joins the Renegade e-Hybrid and the Wrangler 4xe in the Jeep e-Hybrid family, and the Jeep Compass e-Hybrid and the Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe will soon follow it. The Jeep e-Hybrid models aim to deliver the best of both worlds, combining Jeep's performance, capability, and style with the efficiency, innovation, and responsibility of electric mobility. The Jeep Avenger e-Hybrid is a great example of this vision, and it is now available in Europe.
