All-new Jeep Avenger 4xe enters production in Poland with hybrid AWD capability and off-road capability.
Stellantis commenced production of the Jeep Avenger 4xe at its state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Tychy, Poland. The first unit produced was a sample of the low-series Jeep Avenger 4xe “The North Face Edition”, a limited series of only 4,806 cars—a nod to the top of Mont Blanc, the highest point in Europe.
The Jeep Avenger 4xe marries the brand’s legendary off-road capability with electrified all-wheel-drive capability, a significant step in the compact electric SUVs’ development.
