Jeep Avenger: electric, hybrid and trims
The Jeep Avenger is the smallest Jeep, launched in 2022 and built in Poland. You can choose between a petrol engine, mild hybrid, electric version, and the 4xe all-wheel-drive. We look at the variants, trims, and what to check when buying a used Avenger.
Avenger at a glance
The Avenger is a compact, around 4.1m long city SUV. Built on the Stellantis platform, it features the typical Jeep design: boxy shapes, round headlights, and a prominent front grille.
The model won the 'European Car of the Year' title in 2023 and is a practical city car with more ground clearance than most rivals. It's still relatively new in the used market, so the supply is limited.
Versions
The Avenger comes in several variants: with a 1.2-litre turbo petrol engine, mild hybrid (e-Hybrid), pure electric version, and the 4xe hybrid with all-wheel drive.
Front-wheel-drive versions are ideal for city and daily use. The 4xe is for those who often drive on rough roads or in winter.
Engines and gearboxes
The 1.2-litre turbo petrol engine has around 100hp and a 6-speed manual gearbox. The mild hybrid e-Hybrid has around 100hp and a 6-speed automatic dual-clutch gearbox.
The electric version has around a 156hp motor and a 54kWh battery, with a range of several hundred kilometres according to WLTP. In the 4xe version, a secondary electric motor drives the rear wheels.
What to check when buying a used Avenger
The 1.2 l PureTech petrol engine uses a timing belt that operates in oil, so it's crucial to stick to the manufacturer's recommended service intervals and use the correct oil. Ask for the service history.
For the electric version, request battery condition data and check charging via AC and DC ports. For the hybrid version, test the automatic gearbox — it should operate smoothly, without any juddering.
Test the multimedia system, cameras, and driver assistance features, and for all-wheel-drive versions, check the uniformity of the tyres. Inspect the body for repainted parts.
