The Jeep Avenger is the first all-electric model from the American brand, too. It sits on a new, heavily updated version of the Stellantis e-CMP ‘platform’ of mechanicals that also underpin the Vauxhall Mokka-e and Peugeot e-2008, both of which are key rivals to the Jeep Avenger. But it manages to be quite a lot better than both – at least until they are ‘facelifted’ and get the same new motor and battery.

The styling is unmistakably Jeep, courtesy of the squared-off wheel arches, butch-looking black plastic cladding, the trademark seven-bar grille and cross rear light signature. It’s dinky yet chunky, which is quite the design trick and suits the brashness of the Jeep brand.

Complete with 51kWh of usable battery capacity (54kWh total), the Jeep Avenger gets an official WLTP driving range of 248 miles in between charges. It’s clever stuff, too, as the batteries on this updated platform have been shuffled about so that they’re stacked beneath the seats and boot rather than laying flat like a mattress, which has freed up more foot space for passengers.

Join Ginny as she puts the new Jeep Avenger through its paces in the UK for the first time. Is this the small electric car that needs to be on your shortlist? Would you choose the Avenger or something else? As always, we love to hear from you, so let us know in the comments below.
