The new Avenger e-Hybrid represents the first step to electrification as an eco-friendly vehicle, intentionally crafted and promoted as an inclusive choice for a wide spectrum of customers, who are still looking for capability, style, state-of-the-art technology and comfort in a compact dimension\u201d.<\/p><div class=\"autoestrada-nel-contenuto autoestrada-entity-placement\" id=\"autoestrada-1624612881\" style=\"position: relative;padding: 30px;border: 2px solid red;margin: 25px auto 35px;text-align: center;width: fit-content;\"><div class=\"autoestrada-adlabel\">Advertising<\/div><div id=\"autoestrada-4146934339\"><!-- START ADVERTISER: from tradedoubler.com -->\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\nvar uri = 'https:\/\/impfr.tradedoubler.com\/imp?type(img)g(25401758)a(2263928)' + new String (Math.random()).substring (2, 11);\r\ndocument.write('<a href=\"https:\/\/clk.tradedoubler.com\/click?p=320153&a=2263928&g=25401758\" target=\"_BLANK\"><img src=\"'+uri+'\" border=0><\\\/a>');\r\n<\/script>\r\n<!-- END ADVERTISER: from tradedoubler.com -->\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>Electrification pioneer<\/strong><\/em><br>Jeep is continuously moving towards a new concept of mobility, able to further enhance capability, comfort, fuel efficiency, safety, respect for the environment and adventure. The electrification plan started in Europe at the end of 2020 and was smoothly carried forward with the launch of the 4xe Plug-In Hybrid technology on the Compass, Renegade, Wrangler, and more recently on the new Grand Cherokee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then, in 2023, the first ever fully electric Avenger came, packing the Brand\u2019s DNA into a compact SUV with a unique combination of capability, style, functionality, and technology. A pure expression of \u201cconcentrated freedom\u201d, the Avenger offered, and continues to, Jeep\u2019s trademark performance to guarantee peace of mind in all conditions, both on- and off-road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>Electric drive<\/strong><\/em><br>The engine powering the new Avenger e-Hybrid represents the pinnacle of technological achievement, delivering both comfort and performance. Through this cutting-edge technology, the new Avenger e-Hybrid provides an exceptionally seamless driving experience, allowing customers to embrace electric mobility at low speeds thanks to the combination of the automatic 6-speed e-DCS6 dual-clutch transmission and &nbsp;its &nbsp;integrated electric engine.<br>Likewise, the electric motor improves efficiency and driving pleasure, allowing the vehicle to travel with the internal combustion engine turned off in certain situations. This mode is activated during city driving at a speed of less than 30 km\/h, reaching up to 1 km of autonomy in completely electric mode on urban and extra-urban roads if regular driving is maintained, or when the driver releases the accelerator pedal&nbsp; in stabilized conditions or downhill even on the motorway saving fuel.<br>Technology is also involved in the engine ignition process, facilitated by an electric motor with Belt Starter Generator support. This enables a seamless transition between the internal combustion engine and the electric motor while maintaining a silent operation.<br>The key to its performance lies in the harmonious synergy between the 1.2-liter, 3-cylinder combustion engine, capable of delivering up to 100 horsepower, the 48-volt lithium-ion battery, and the innovative 6-speed dual-clutch electric gearbox. This gearbox houses a 21-kW electric motor, an inverter, and the central transmission unit, working together to optimize compactness and efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The additional electric power enhances low-end torque and ensures a quiet and responsive start for the driver, with seamless and rapid transitions. Pure electric power is also useful for the e-creeping function, allowing a series of short forward movements without accelerator input, beneficial in situations like traffic jams (e-queueing). The vehicle can also be parked in 100% electric mode (e-parking). Moreover, this technology enables energy recovery during deceleration and granting the freedom of auto recharge through regenerative braking, eliminating the need for plug-in charging.<br>Under typical driving circumstances, the engine is engineered for optimal fuel efficiency, achieving up to a 15% reduction in CO2 emissions compared to a combustion engine with an automatic transmission. This is further achieved through the Miller Cycle, resulting in estimated CO2 emissions ranging from 111 to 114 grams per kilometer, which positions it favorably within its category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>Performance<\/strong><\/em><br>The remarkable new Avenger e-Hybrid distinguishes itself with an acceleration from 0 to 100 km\/h in a mere 11 seconds, coupled with virtually instantaneous torque delivery from the electric motor. This configuration optimizes the performance of the combustion engine, particularly during restarts, mitigating the &#8220;turbolag&#8221; effect and ensuring a quick response when the accelerator pedal is pressed, thus delivering an exceptional driving experience. Similarly, in pure electric mode at startup, the combustion engine is only engaged when additional power is needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>New Avenger e-Hybrid: a new set of product features<\/strong><\/em><br>New features are available with the new Avenger e-Hybrid including the fascinating Open-Air Sky Roof, offering open-air, fun and pleasure for drivers and passengers alike, and definitely enhancing the behind-the-wheel pleasure. Other groundbreaking enhancements in comfort are offered with the introduction of the Powered Driver Seat with massage function and leather material. Elevating the driving experience to unprecedented levels, these innovative seats offer an optimal support and relaxation during every journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new model introduces several noteworthy enhancements in both its exteriors and interiors. Externally, it boasts a distinct and dedicated badge. Inside the cabin, drivers have the choice of a 7-inch e-Hybrid &nbsp;cluster featuring MHEV information such as drive mode, engine status feedback, and power meter readings, or they can opt for the 10.25-inch e-Hybrid one. Additionally, the vehicle comes equipped with steering wheel gear paddles and a cutting-edge 6-gear DCT transmission in manual mode to take control of the gear selection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Key product highlights include a 48V system that delivers a genuine hybrid experience. Fuel consumption is also remarkable at just 5.1l\/100km. The powertrain features an engine with a 1.2 e-DCT 6-gear P2 48V configuration, generating 74kW (100hp) of maximum power and 205Nm of torque, along with a 21kW e-motor delivering 55Nm of torque, all complemented by a 44-liter fuel tank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Furthermore, the hybrid system includes significant CO2 savings compared to traditional gasoline engines, with the potential to reduce emissions more than 10g CO2\/km versus the manual petrol engine according to WLTP standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And to make driving even more enjoyable, there are two new connected services packs available for the Avenger range. The Connect ONE pack, providing assistance and security in case of need, and the Connect PLUS pack, offering a wide range of connected services focused primarily on navigation. Take full advantage of the &#8216;over the air&#8217; map updates, stay informed about the weather, the danger zones on your route, the location of service stations (and fuel prices), the parking spaces available in town. And above all, don&#8217;t take any risks on the road, stay focused by using mainly voice recognition commands to ask your questions or give your instructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>Freedom of choice<\/strong><\/em><br>Jeep has a long history of producing versatile vehicles that can handle a variety of terrains and driving conditions, which aligns with the idea of offering freedom and choice to its customers. The Brand\u2019s vehicles provide individuals with the ability to choose their own adventures and explore the world, thanks to their capable and versatile nature.<br>Jeep&#8217;s commitment is to enabling customers to select the ideal vehicle that aligns with their requirements and tastes remains unwavering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The embodiment of the dedication to freedom is mirrored in Jeep&#8217;s expansive and diverse vehicle offerings, now more extensive than ever before.
