I recently spent a week with the Jeep Avenger petrol and it turned out to be a real surprise. The cheapest vehicle in the Jeep range had all the character you would expect from Jeep with a very frugal little petrol engine that still delivered a fun driving experience.

A few more upgrades to that car and it could have been a contender to my current vehicle.

I own a Jeep Compass 4x4, 2 Ltr diesel here in India nad I love the car for what it offers both on and off road. I may not be a hardcore mud plugger but it does the job well enough without compromisisng a lot of on road comfort. Was looking fwd to this. Looks and seems good but I strongly feel that a Jeep that dose'nt really go off road isnt a Jeep. Somewhere Jeep needs to draw a line between nice cars and a Jeep without compromising on what makes Jeep a Jeep in the first place. Hope Jeep does something about that coz I love Jeep for what it is - a Jeep.

And its also good to hear that the avenger does good motorway mpg - I was getting 37MPG out the rene

I’ve been driving mine since November in Italy including a 3260km trip to the UK and I must admit I’ve been very surprised with how the little Avenger performed. My only concern for me was trying to adjust to a manual gear box after years of driving an automatic, so I’ve traded my in for the new Avenger Summit Hybrid which is arriving in August, 6 speed dual clutch,paddle,s on the steering wheel with an extra 29hp and the little engine finally has a timing chain not that I think there’s a problem with the timing belt if serviced regularly with the correct oil. I’ll let you know how the Hybrid performs in September after a trip to Sardinia. Don’t think about it buy one, great little car. Roger

Great review Pete, I like the styling of this car. The one problem with all the Stellantis group cars is the design of that 1.2 litre engine, in that it has a wet belt oil pump, which can be troublesome or even catastrophic at higher mileages! So as a new car under warranty great, second hand with higher mileage is a risk. That aside it look a nice package from Jeep. 👍😎

Now you mention the Jeep ownership experience BUT I bought a Jeep and nothing like that happened. I had expected more involvement but that was a few years ago. I trust the dreadful build and reliability problems are behind them but I’m not sure I could ever trust one again.

Weird seeing a Jeep that we won't get in the USA... This is actually smaller than the Jeep Renegade that we do get. While many of Jeep's crossovers really divide enthusiasts here in the states, the truth is Jeep has figured out how to make all of their cars genuinely off-road capable. Sure, their smaller cars aren't as capable as a Wrangler or Grand Cherokee, but they really punch above their weight class.

In all I’ve completed 6450kms and the 1.2 Jeep Avenger never missed a beat. Yesterday I ordered the new Jeep Avenger e-hybrid with a delivery date August/September,main reason is I want the automatic and will feel happier with the the timing chain even if Jeep have said with proper maintenance using the correct oil there wouldn’t be a problem with the timing belt. We had no problem with the journey travelling just over 700kms in a day but there was just the two of us and luggage. Looking forward to the arrival of the e-hybrid..

Brilliant review as always & kinda makes you think if you don't want bags of performance but want good mpg in something that's not too big for the UK roads why on earth would you buy an electric SUV which are usually far too large & expensive. Just how many years of ownership would it take before you started to see any gains in going electric when factoring in the cost. With most electric SUVs costing 40k upwards that £15,000+ saving is an awful lot of petrol , probably 10 years worth for the average motorist before you see any gains.

Did you miss the little Jeep icon in the rear tail lights (see 4:09)? Watching your driving/seat position you have the seat reclined a bit but then you lean forward. For improved driving posture bring the seat more upright and rest against it rather than lean forward. There’s a huge gap from halfway up your back to your shoulders where you’re totally unsupported. I see you did improve the upright a little. To know the right position for the steering wheel you should extend your right arm straight with shoulders back in the chair and your wrist should rest on the top of the wheel with your hand falling over and drooping towards the binnacle. If not - you’re too far or too close to the wheel regardless of where your legs are.
