The 2025 Jeep Avenger will arrive as the brand’s first electric vehicle (EV) in Australia in the final months of 2024, with pricing to make it one of the 10 cheapest battery-powered vehicles on sale.
Due between October and December, the Jeep Avenger will start from $53,990 before on-road costs in base Longitude guise – undercutting the Peugeot e-2008 which it shares its platform by $6000.
There are two better-equipped Avengers on offer in the Limited, priced at $57,990 before on-roads, and flagship Summit, priced at $63,990 before on-roads, though all examples feature the same single-motor front-wheel drive powertrain.
Jeep claims a driving range of 396km for the Avenger, which can be charged at up to 100kW using a DC fast charger, providing a 20 to 80 per cent charge in 24 minutes.
Deliveries of the 2025 Jeep Avenger are due to begin in the fourth quarter of 2024.
Pricing
The Avenger will be offered in three variants.
- 2025 Jeep Avenger Longitude: $53,990
- 2025 Jeep Avenger Limited: $57,990
- 2025 Jeep Avenger Summit: $63,990
Prices above exclude on-road costs.
Drivetrain
The Jeep Avenger is powered by a front-mounted electric motor, producing 115kW of power and 260Nm of torque.
While there is a turbo-petrol version of the Jeep Avenger sold overseas, the electric powertrain is the only offering to be confirmed for Australia.
Efficiency
Jeep claims the Avenger can achieve 396km of driving range under the WLTP cycle, courtesy of its 51kWh usable lithium-ion battery pack.
Mode 2 home charging is capped at 1.8kW, Mode 3 charging can be completed at up to 11kW and DC fast charging is available at up to 100kW – the latter of which results in a 20 to 80 per cent charge in as little as 24 minutes.
Dimensions
The Jeep Avenger measures 4084mm long, 1776mm long, and 1528mm tall on a 2560mm wheelbase.
Despite being a front-wheel drive city car, Jeep claims the Avenger has 200mm of ground clearance, a 20 degree approach and breakover angle, and 32 degree departure angle.
The Avenger has a kerb weight of 1520kg, making it one of the lightest electric vehicles on sale in Australia.
Its boot boasts 380 litres of storage space, which is added to the 34 litre capacity in its ‘frunk’.

Jeep is yet to confirm service intervals and pricing for the Avenger. It has also not yet confirmed local warranty coverage, though all Australian-delivered models are covered by a five-year, 100,000km warranty.
