The Jeep Avenger will add a hybrid powertrain – as well as a pure electric one ⛽️ ⚡️
Jeep’s forthcoming Avenger 4×4 will make production in 2024 – and it’s set to wear Jeep’s 4xe badge denoting it’s a plug-in hybrid., start in mainland Europe in April 2023. There it’s available as a pure electric car with a 115kW motor turning the front wheels, or using a 1.2-litre turbo petrol in a few markets with limited EV sales.The 4xe four-wheel drive version follows in 2024.
Jeep claims that 4xe delivers the brand’s trademark off-road prowess, and insiders say that even if the front wheels have zero grip on a 20˚ incline, the electric-powered rear axle will be able to comfortably accelerate up and out of trouble. Head of global design Ralph Gilles said: ‘When I first started here, 31 years ago, we only had three name plates. A niche brand, not thinking in a global way. At Stellantis, the pace of change is incredible. Jeep still has a small-town dynamic, with this incredible company behind us.’In turn, Gilles briefed Daniele Calonaci, European design chief: ‘Even without a badge, you need to know it’s a Jeep.
Jeep CEO Christian Meunier says the Avenger is true to the company’s core pillars of freedom, adventure, authenticity and passion. ‘It’s not marketing bullshit. Whenever we have a conversation about product, it has to be robust, and we like to convey that with the design of the product. There’s no fake stuff on a Jeep.’
