We've driven the new Jeep Avenger, an all-electric baby SUV designed, engineered and built in Europe. 'A stepchange,' says CARPhilMc. 'Refined to drive, pleasant to sit in and delivers all Jeep’s trademark appeal in a bonsai package' ⚡️🏔️
and, most closely related, the revised DS 3. But Jeep says it’s substantially re-engineered to deliver as much of the brand’s trademark capability as can be mustered in a front-wheel drive city car.
But Jeep demonstrated its off-road credentials clambering over some offset ramps, first breezing up a 17˚ slope, hauling itself along on one wheel with its airborne partner spinning helplessly before being braked, until all wheels bumped down to terra firma exploiting the 32˚ obstacle departure angle. Its ‘off-road’ capability is not far off a Range Rover Evoque’s.We put the Avenger in gear by tapping the D button on the centre console, and first impressions are of a car oozing sophistication.
Corners are despatched by plenty of front-end grip, even ones with nasty mid-corner bumps, and when craggy straights jostle the Avenger left and right there’s very little head toss: this little Jeep can take a pummelling like AJ. Throw in a design that looks pure, boilwashed Jeep but is cleverly aerodynamic – the trad bonnet bulge sticks air to the windscreen, wheelarch channels smooth turbulence – and there’s a 12 per cent efficiency improvement compared with a DS 3 on the same fundamentals.
