We can see why the Avenger has sold quite well for its maker. The brief here - to create a fun, boxy Jeep that can be all-electric - has been delivered with the kind of flair likely customers will be looking for. And if you don't want an EV, the various combustion versions offer sensible alternatives. Either way, the Avenger's 'Selec-Terrain' system delivers the kind of poor weather driving confidence that most of this car's competitors lack.
The fact is though that this attribute isn't one usually prioritised by on-trend customers in this growing segment. People more likely to want space and practicality; and a comfortable on-tarmac driving experience. These are both areas in which, to be frank, the Avenger still falls short in comparison to its most obvious segment rivals outside of competing Stellantis Group brand models. If you're looking at the EV version, you can get a lot more power for this kind of outlay too.
For all that though, there's plenty here you might like, especially in this updated model. We can't help respecting the company for making at least some attempt to preserve traditional rough road brand virtues here - and in doing so, they've given the car a unique selling point in its segment, even if it's not a particularly significant one. You could still argue of course that for all kinds of reasons, this isn't 'a real Jeep'. But there's no question that it's really what the brand needs right now.
