et al) make for a much better starting point for a model that’s good to drive, rather than trying to reinvent something off the Renegade’s platform. As a side note, it’s those eCMP2-based economies of scale that allow Jeep to build the Avenger profitably .Anyway, the Avenger’s roots aren’t the kind you need to hide, but it does have its own distinct character and touches inside – such as lots and lots of storage, 34 litres of which is in the front cabin alone.

It’s still only a tiddler, after all.From the outside, the Avenger looks like a robust and tough little thing. There’s lots of hard black cladding around the bottom, but leaving those surfaces unpainted saves €1000 in scuff and scrape repair costs over the car’s life, says Jeep.
Its best feature is how compact it feels without being compromised for space inside. That boxy shape lets you know where all four corners are, and there’s good visibility and a sensible width that makes it an easy car to place. It is also keen to turn in and holds a line in a corner with well-controlled body movements and good grip, although the steering is overly springy and artificial on initial inputs off the straight-ahead.
