Jeep has unveiled the all-new Jeep Avenger, the brand's first-ever battery electric vehicle (BEV), to press and public at the Paris Motor Show. The Jeep Avenger Electric SUV will launch in Europe in the first half of 2023 and eventually launch in Nepal as well.The Jeep Avenger has a new generation electric propulsion system which combines a new electric motor and a new battery. The second-generation 400 Volt electric powertrain is the first one to be launched by Emotors, a joint venture between Stellantis and Nidec Leroy-Somer Holding. It supplies 115 kW, corresponding to 156 horsepower, and 260 Nm of maximum torque. The new 54 kWh battery delivers 400 km of range in the WLTP cycle and up to 550 km (342 miles) in the urban cycle where EVs are most efficient.The Avenger follows a compact design language. The front of the vehicle displays the iconic 7-slot grille that is positioned in front of the headlamps to protect them in the case of impact. The side view is marked by the classic trapezoidal wheel arches and the vehicle features imposing 18-inch wheels, with a robust design and diamond cut finish, mounted on a 690mm tire diameter. In the rear, the vehicle features signature lights inspired by the classic X fuel cans.In order to reduce any damage caused by low-speed impacts, which make up around 70% of cases in Europe, the new Avenger is equipped with skid plates, 360-degree cladding, and encased-protected headlamps. Specifically, the front headlamps are encased and positioned up high for protection in the case of low-speed impacts. Plus, the new SUV skid plates are made of polymer mould-in colour.The new Avenger is the first front-wheel drive Jeep vehicle equipped with standard Selec-Terrain and Hill Descent Control which, together with the impressive approach and departure angles and the vehicle’s ground clearance, make it a benchmark in the segment.On the inside, the Avenger gets a functional and spacious design which is anchored by a lean dashboard. The upper part of the dashboard gets a single horizontal function ‘beam’ which includes all the air vents, ambient lighting and a centrally located 10.25 inches touch screen, which can be seen by both the driver and passenger. Similarly, the central console has also been developed to maximize available usable space for the driver and passenger.The Jeep Avenger offers a full array of driving assistance features. It boasts Level 2 autonomous driving, which automatically adjusts speed and trajectory, and makes use of Adaptive Cruise Control and Lane Centering. It also offers Traffic Sign Recognition, Automatic Emergency Braking, Drowsy Driver Alert,  Lane Keeping Assist,  360° parking sensors with Active Park Assist and a 180° rear camera with drone view.

The Jeep brand continues to expand its 4xe portfolio globally, enhancing its legendary 4x4 capability with the use of electrification and technology. By the end of this year, 100% of the Jeep SUV portfolio will be electrified in almost all of the European markets.
