Back in December, Jeep opened up its order books for the special "1st Edition" Avenger, which started at €39,500 in Italy, France, Germany, Spain, Belgium, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Austria, Portugal, and Poland.
Apparently the "1st Edition" campaign was a success, with over 10,000 reservations received online, and starting today you can order the entire Avenger range. The first deliveries are expected to occur in the second quarter of this year, so between April and June.
There are four trims, seven body colors, and up to a maximum of five packs to choose from. Here's the description of those four trims straight from Jeep itself:
• Avenger – Includes 16" black wheels and full-LED headlights. Equipped with the latest technology in terms of security and capability, it has cruise control and lane keep assist, and comes standard with a 10.25" infotainment screen and 7" digital instrument cluster. Moreover, there's automatic A/C, Hill descent control, Selec-Terrain, and the Connected Services suite.
• Longitude – Provides additional style accents like 16" alloy wheels, body color door handles and gray skid plates, and there are also rear parking sensors.
• Altitude – Combines superior elegance and comfort and provides 17" alloy wheels, silver skid plates, and premium cloth and vinyl seats perfectly matching the dedicated silver dashboard fascia and interior silver accents. There's a bigger 10.25" digital instrument panel, as well as a handsfree power liftgate and passive entry support.
• Summit – The top-of-the-line includes 18" alloy wheels, full LED headlights and taillights. Plus, the cabin provides unmatched style and comfort thanks to its multicolored ambient light, yellow dashboard fascia, and wireless charger. The Summit trim offers state-of-the-art technology with Level 2 autonomous drive, 360° parking sensors and rear camera with top drone-like view.
The colors on offer are called Snow, Volcano, Ruby, Sun, Lake, Granite, and Stone - the first three being pastels, the final four metallic. There's an additional two-tone livery with a Volcano roof on the upper trims.
All of the trims come with a 54 kWh battery rated for 400 km of range in the WLTP cycle (and "more than 550 km in the city" according to Jeep), and a FWD motor delivering 115 kW (156 hp) of power and 260 Nm (192 lb-ft) of torque. Charging at 100 kW DC takes the battery from 20% to 80% in 24 minutes. Jeep says you can get 30 km of range after a three-minute charge. The Avenger is the first all-electric Jeep and the smallest Jeep yet with its length of just 4.08m (160").
