Jeep is all set to make waves in the compact SUV segment with the launch of its much-awaited Jeep Avenger in India. The Avenger is expected to offer advanced tech features, a bold design, and ample off-road capabilities. This will make it a suitable and worthwhile investment option for city adventurers. 

The Jeep Avenger is going to be a perfect blend of Jeep DNA and modern urban styling. While its European success stories are already creating a buzz worldwide, Indian car enthusiasts are eager to know when this compact SUV hits the Indian roads and how much it will cost. 

Keeping all the potential questions in mind, we’ve uncovered the Jeep Avenger’s expected launch date, estimated pricing, and why it could be a game-changer in the compact SUV segment. 

What’s the Launch Date?

Well, the Jeep Avenger has been booming in the European market since 2023. Being a quite popular and feature-rich subcompact crossover SUV, Indian car enthusiasts are eagerly waiting for its arrival in the Indian market. It was always clear that the Jeep Avenger would hit the Indian roads, but when, that was a major question. 

So, the good news is Jeep Avenger has got its launch date in India, and it’s anticipated to be December 2026. This subcompact SUV will hit the Indian market with two variants– Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) and Electric Vehicle (EV). While the ICE variant will be launched first in late 2025 or early 2026, followed by the EV in December 2026. 

Features and Specs: What to Expect?

Now that we know the launch date, the expected features, and specs remain another burning question. While it would be too early to predict the exact features for the Indian version, as it has not officially been launched or tested. 

However, the car experts are expecting the Avenger to be powered by a single motor with 115 kW (154 bhp) and 260 Nm of peak torque. The Avenger is the first complete EV SUV introduced by Jeep. It’s all built and designed in Europe only. Also, claims are that the Avenger has a range of 400 km (WLTP Cycle) on a single charge.

This can be further extended to 550 km when you opt for the city use mode. Moreover, it will include six selectable driving modes, including Mud, Normal, Sport, Eco, Sand, and Snow. Talking about the expected features, nothing is clear yet, but we can get an idea by looking at the already existing Jeep Avenger globally. 

Some expected features may include:

• Iconic seven-slot grille with a modern touch 

• Premium LED fog lamps

• Bi-function LED projector headlights 

• 18-inch aluminum polished wheels

• LED taillamps to enhance visibility and safety 

• Gloss black exterior mirrors 

• Responsive braking system with ABS and EBD 

• 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system

• Power-adjustable front seats

Color Options Available 

As per the latest updates, the Jeep Avenger will have some solid and metallic colors. You may choose your desired color among the available options. For the Indian market, the color options might include:

• Silver

• White

• Red 

• Black

Apart from this, you may also opt for the color pairing of the Volcano black roof with any of these color options. This will enhance the overall appearance of the SUV and make it more appealing. In the global market, combinations like Sun with Volcano roof or Ruby with Volcano roof are highly preferred. You can decide on the same depending on future market offerings.

What Will Be the Price Range?

Now, it’s time to answer the most important question: the expected price range for the upcoming Jeep Avenger. It will be wrong to give any speculations or false rumors about the pricing until it’s officially announced by the company.

Even though the exact price in India is yet to be disclosed, market experts and car enthusiasts are expecting it to start somewhere around ₹8 Lakh. Having that said, this price may also range between ₹8 Lakh to ₹12 Lakh, depending on the availability of variants in India. 

Jeep Avenger Variants Expected In India
