They can also control their car using the touchscreen or their voice assistant.

Navigation improvements include on-street parking and natural voice recognition. The first makes it easier to find parking spaces on public roads, thanks to a system that identifies the streets most available in terms of parking spaces. The system uses parking data to provide dynamic mapping that displays paid public parking spaces. Natural voice recognition is a safety feature that allows drivers to communicate with their navigation system without having to use their smartphone and thus avoid the risk of accidents. This functionality has been improved to ensure greater efficiency and understanding of the actions requested by drivers.

It allows you to navigate through tunnels or parking lots without losing connection and the map is updated weekly without owners needing to perform additional actions. In addition to these convenience features, the Avenger also has premium features such as the hands-free power tailgate, power adjustable leather driver’s seat with massage function, multi-color ambient lighting and panoramic sunroof. These elements add a touch of comfort and sophistication to the car. The hands-free liftgate is a rare feature in this class of car and is standard on the highest-end trims, Altitude and Summit.

Peak capacity

As a pure expression of “focused freedom,” the Avenger delivers Jeep-like performance in a compact package to ensure peace of mind in all weather conditions. This agile, responsive and pleasant-to-drive car stands out for its silence and offers dynamic performance thanks to its instant torque.

The new Avenger is the first front-wheel drive Jeep equipped as standard with Selec-Terrain® and Hill Descent Control, which, combined with 200 mm of ground clearance, a 20-degree approach angle and a leak of 32 degrees, make it a vehicle with unexpected all-road capabilities in the segment. These features guarantee maximum protection even in the city, for example when climbing a steep parking ramp.

To improve its angles, the Avenger adopts the new e-CMP2 modular electric platform, which has been extensively customized with specific settings to deliver best-in-class capabilities. No less than 60% of its components are entirely dedicated to Jeep. The front and rear overhangs have been reduced to a minimum from this platform, which has made it possible to design completely new protective bodies, which are 30 mm shorter and offer the same performance in terms of absorption. ‘energy.

The vehicle was raised to maximize ground clearance, with the lowest point being the engine shield. Also worth noting is the Avenger’s solid, flat underbody, which is designed to protect the battery and motor from damage while improving aerodynamic efficiency.

The Avenger perfectly embodies Jeep’s “double soul” and is as efficient on the road as it is off-road. Thanks to its compact size and agility, it offers a turning radius of just 10.5 meters, which is ideal in the alleys of a historic city center as well as on winding off-road paths.

In addition, the Avenger offers exceptional ride comfort combined with extraordinary handling. For example, during the development of the suspension system, the damping force was increased by 20%. In doing so, we reduced vertical body acceleration by 20%, body roll by 12% and pitch acceleration by 18% to ensure that the Avenger is still very comfortable – in off-road use, but also filtering out bumps on ordinary roads.

Brand new electric motor/battery assembly

The Avenger’s energy consumption according to the WLTP cycle is the best in its class, showing a consumption of 15.4 kWh per 100 km. This efficiency is due to the lightness of the vehicle, which weighs only 1,500 kilograms, and the efficiency of its compact electrical assembly.

Every element of the Avenger has been designed to maximize its performance and efficiency, starting with the lightweight and efficient eCMP2 electric platform, which has helped optimize the range range.

The new electric motor improved the range by 5%, the new battery by 12%, and a further 5% improvement was achieved through aerodynamics, gear ratio and tires. The standard heat pump also increases autonomy by 10% in extreme heat and cold conditions.

The M3 power unit adopted on the Avenger is a second-generation, high-efficiency 400-volt electric motor, developed by eMotors, the 50/50 joint venture of STELLANTIS with NIDEC. It provides 115 kW corresponding to 156 HP and 260 Nm of maximum torque.

The battery is a key element that allows high autonomy. The new Avenger battery, produced at the Tychy factory, has a capacity of 54 kWh and offers maximum energy density and an excellent ratio between nominal and usable energy. It consists of 17 modules and 102 cells based on NMC 811 lithium-ion. The battery system is very compact and is located under the front and rear seats and under the central tunnel, with double crash protection.

The charging system includes a standard on-board charger that delivers 100 kW of direct current and 11 kW of alternating current. High power and torque as well as specific powertrain calibration allow the Avenger to deliver uncompromising driving pleasure on and off-road on a compact platform.

Finally, aerodynamics are a key factor in the efficiency and autonomy of the Avenger, which has a frontal area of only 2.25 square meters and a drag coefficient of 0.33, placing it among the best cars in its class in terms of aerodynamic response.
