Jeep is set to introduce its first electric vehicle (EV) in Australia with the arrival of the 2025 Jeep Avenger, slated for release between October and December 2024. Priced competitively at $53,990 for the base model Longitude variant, the Avenger promises to be one of the ten most affordable battery-powered vehicles on the market.
Offering a compelling range of features across its lineup, the Avenger will be available in three trim levels: Longitude, Limited, and Summit. Despite their differences in equipment, all variants will share the same single-motor front-wheel-drive powertrain.
The Limited and Summit models, priced at $57,990 and $63,990, respectively, offer additional premium features for those seeking a more upscale driving experience.
Powered by a front-mounted electric motor generating 115kW of power and 260Nm of torque, the Avenger boasts an impressive driving range of 396km under the WLTP cycle.
Charging is made convenient with options for Mode 2 home charging, Mode 3 charging up to 11kW, and DC fast charging up to 100kW, allowing for a 20 to 80 percent charge in just 24 minutes.
Measuring 4084mm long, 1776mm wide, and 1528mm tall on a 2560mm wheelbase, the Avenger offers ample interior space while maintaining a compact footprint suitable for city driving.
Despite its front-wheel-drive configuration, the Avenger boasts impressive off-road capabilities with features like 200mm of ground clearance and a robust chassis design.
In terms of safety, the Avenger comes equipped with a comprehensive suite of driver assistance systems, including autonomous emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, and lane-keep assist. While official safety ratings are pending, the vehicle offers a range of advanced safety features designed to provide peace of mind on the road.
