It might seem a little odd that Jeep has given such an aggressive and confrontational name to a car as small, charming and likeable as the Avenger. Just look at it – it’s too cute to avenge anything, bless it., But when you think about it, the name is quite fitting. Despite its diminutive size, the Jeep Avenger considers itself to be rugged, plucky, no-nonsense and not to be messed with. Think about Scrappy Doo in the old Scooby cartoons shouting “Lemmie at ‘em!” in the face of larger, more imposing adversaries – that’s how we see the character of the Jeep Avenger., However, if the Jeep Avenger plans to shout its mouth off in such a way, it needs to back up the bluster. As Jeep’s first all-electric car, this teeny-tiny crossover SUV has plenty of pressure riding on its small shoulders, So, can it deliver?., Well, the Jeep Avenger certainly has the style to appeal in this image-conscious sector of the car market. All those classic Jeep design cues give it a cute brand of ruggedness that’s missing from other supermini-sized SUVs, electric or otherwise, so it really stands out. The interior is a cheerful environment, too, thanks to big splashes of colour and lots of light coming through the big windows., This is a small car with a small footprint, On the plus side, there’s a decent amount of standard equipment included in the price (which is very reasonable by class standards), and the large central touchscreen – along with the rest of the controls – is easy and intuitive to use., What might surprise you most, though, is what a pleasure the Jeep Avenger Electric is to drive. It combines zippy electric performance with tidy, nimble handling and a comfy ride, and although it’s at its best on tight city streets, it doesn’t feel out of its depth on the motorway. , All in all, in the scheme of small electric SUVs, the Jeep Avenger is a very likeable, very capable and very compelling choice, and if you're looking for such a car, it should be very near the top of your shortlist., Call us on 01902544200 and speak to one of the team at Stoneacre Wolverhampton.
