The Jeep Avenger is receiving a refresh for 2026, featuring a smarter design, enhanced technology, and a special 85th Anniversary edition. UK orders are expected to open in late summer, with pricing and full trim details to be announced closer to launch.
The fully electric Avenger retains its 54kWh battery and 154bhp electric motor, offering a claimed range of up to 248 miles. It supports rapid charging at up to 100kW and 11kW AC charging. The Avenger, named European Car of the Year in 2023, is now Jeep's best-selling model in Europe, with over 270,000 units sold since launch, 60% of which are electrified.
Exterior updates include a new LED-backlit seven-slot grille on higher trims, redesigned front and rear bumpers, fresh 17in and 18in alloy wheels, and two new colours: Forest and Bamboo. Inside, softer materials are used on door panels and the lower dashboard, while the Selec-Terrain control gains a red rubber-coated surround for easier use.
Technology upgrades include LED matrix headlights that adapt the beam based on speed and traffic, and a new front camera providing a 360-degree view on the central touchscreen. Standard equipment across the range includes full-LED front lights, automatic high beam, keyless start, cruise control, automatic air conditioning, a 10.25in infotainment screen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and over-the-air updates.
The Avenger maintains its off-road capability with up to 210mm ground clearance and approach, breakover, and departure angles of up to 22, 21, and 35 degrees respectively. Selec-Terrain and Hill Descent Control are standard. The boot offers 380 litres of space, and the Jeep app allows remote battery checks, charging scheduling, and cabin preconditioning.
