With a commitment to performance and electrification, Jeep introduces the Avenger 4xe to European journalists, showcasing its legacy of SUV excellence.
Rooted in a customer-centric approach, Jeep seamlessly integrates timeless design with cutting-edge technology, delivering an unparalleled driving experience. The innovative powertrain of the Avenger 4xe combines hybrid efficiency with advanced AWD technology. Featuring a dynamic 48V hybrid system and dual 21Kw electric motors, alongside a robust 1.2-liter turbo engine, this configuration offers thrilling performance and an E-Boost function in Sport Mode.
With a maximum power output of 136 hp and acceleration from 0-100 km/h in just 9.5 seconds, the Avenger 4xe sets a new standard in the hybrid lineup. Additionally, it achieves higher speeds and acceleration while minimizing CO2 emissions, showcasing the blend of power and eco-consciousness.
The Powertrain complemented by a 22.7:1 reducer on the rear axle ensures remarkable rear wheel torque of 1,900 Nm for unparalleled traction. This capability enables conquering slopes of nearly 40% on challenging terrains like gravel and up to 20% on front-axle-gripless surfaces.
With the smart all-wheel-drive system, the Avenger 4xe ensures that 4×4 capability is readily available. At low speeds, traction on all four wheels is permanent with a 50:50 split, while at medium speeds, the rear axle activates on demand.
Even with zero Nm of torque, the rear e-motor remains connected for sudden needs. Torque distribution adjusts based on demand, with up to a potential 50:50 split, transitioning to permanent forward drive at speeds above 90 km/h to minimize fuel consumption.
The Selec-Terrain function offers Four Different modes:
- Auto, for on-demand all-wheel-drive with minimal CO2 emissions.
- Snow, ensuring stability control and smart all-wheel-drive for safe winter travel.
- Sand & Mud, tailored for uneven terrains with specific gearshift ratios and traction control.

Meticulously tailored roof rails and rear tow hook complement the vehicle’s rugged persona.
Front and rear bumpers, crafted from mold-in-color material with anti-scratch finishing, offer safety and solidity in rocky terrain. The new front bumper exposes the wheel for added protection and features prominent cladding to shield the number plate from impact.
Vital components like the front lower grill and radar are safeguarded by robust bumpers, ensuring durability in rugged environments. The optional Hood Sticker, made of matte material, prevents unpleasant reflections from the sun during driving.
Inside, the Avenger 4xe impresses with innovative features elevating comfort and convenience. The cabin features new seats crafted from unconventional, washable, and durable materials, perfect for outdoor adventurers.
