The ‘autonis’ prize for our compact electric SUV confirms that readers and customers appreciate it.”

The Jeep Avenger is a compact SUV in the fast-growing B-SUV segment, the second largest segment in Europe in terms of volume. It combines Jeep DNA with a unique combination of capabilities, style, functionality, and technology.
