The Jeep and The North Face design people have worked as a team over the past two years, and they’ve brought together different, but complementary, perspectives and skills, and then added lots of passion to create something that’s truly unique and innovative.
Sustainable power redefined: meet the Jeep Avenger 4xe line-up
Building on the success of the model, the Jeep Avenger 4xe is set to become the new benchmark in the B-SUV segment, offering an exclusive design, top-tier performance, and embodying Jeep’s rich legacy of all-wheel drive. The Avenger 4xe is set to make history for Jeep with two soon-to-be iconic trims: Upland and the exclusive The North Face Edition. This model represents a significant leap in Jeep’s legendary capability. Both trims are equipped with a groundbreaking powertrain that establishes a new standard for lightweight design and driving enjoyment, seamlessly blending off-road performance with sustainable mobility.
The innovative powertrain of the Jeep Avenger 4xe seamlessly blends hybrid efficiency with cutting-edge AWD technology. At its core is a 48V hybrid system, featuring a powerful 1.2-liter turbo engine that generates 136 hp, paired with dual 21kW electric motors located at the front and rear. This configuration provides all-wheel drive and is coupled with a 6-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, allowing the vehicle to drive in full electric mode at low speeds.
This setup ensures top-tier performance, with the Avenger 4xe achieving a maximum power output of 136 hp and a top speed of 194 km/h—10 km/h faster than the e-Hybrid version. It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 9.5 seconds. The 4xe powertrain stands out as the most powerful in the Avenger hybrid lineup, offering 36 hp and 25 Nm more torque than the e-Hybrid FWD, which results in faster acceleration and a higher top speed, while maintaining only a slight increase in CO2 emissions. This balance of power and eco-friendliness is a hallmark of Jeep’s commitment to sustainability, allowing drivers to enjoy impressive performance without sacrificing environmental responsibility.
Beyond raw power, the Avenger 4xe’s capabilities are further enhanced by its superior off-road performance. It boasts improved off-road angles, an additional 10 mm of ground clearance, and a wading depth of up to 400 mm, making it more rugged and versatile than the front-wheel-drive model. The all-wheel-drive capability offers superior traction across diverse terrains, ensuring that the Avenger 4xe is ready for any adventure.
The Jeep Avenger 4xe is designed to conquer a wide range of terrains with ease and confidence, thanks to its robust features and advanced technology. Standard M+S tires provide reliable traction in various weather conditions, while optional All Terrain 3PMSF tires are available for those seeking enhanced grip on more challenging surfaces.
The Avenger 4xe boasts optimized off-road angles, including a 22° approach, 21° breakover, and 35° departure angles, coupled with a ground clearance of 210mm. These features, along with the increased water fording capacity, make the vehicle ideal for adventurers ready to explore the most rugged terrains. A key component of the Avenger 4xe’s power is the 22.7:1 reducer on the rear axle, delivering an extraordinary rear-wheel torque of 1,900 Nm, ensuring exceptional traction even on steep, challenging surfaces. The vehicle can handle slopes up to 40% on difficult terrain like gravel and maintain up to 20% traction when the front axle has little or no grip.
Equipped with an intelligent all-wheel-drive system, the Avenger 4xe ensures that 4×4 capabilities are readily available when needed. Depending on the drive mode selected, at low speeds (between -30 and +30 km/h), permanent traction on all four wheels is maintained with a 50:50 torque split. At medium speeds (30 to 90 km/h), the rear axle drive engages only when required, while at high speeds (above 90 km/h), the rear e-motor disengages from the axle to optimize fuel consumption.
The Selec-Terrain system allows drivers to switch between modes tailored for specific driving conditions: Auto, providing all-wheel drive only when necessary, balancing performance and allowing the electric drive up to 1km in EV under 30km/h; Snow, enhancing traction and stability, and ensuring safety during winter travel; Sand & Mud, for uneven terrains, featuring specific gear ratios and traction control to maintain grip; Sport, unleashing the full potential of the 4xe system, including an E-boost function for rear-wheel torque to achieve a quicker acceleration.
The Avenger 4xe also includes Jeep’s exclusive Multilink rear suspension system, a feature usually found on larger vehicles. This innovative system significantly enhances rear axle articulation, resulting in smoother rides on rough roads and providing superior comfort across challenging terrain.
The Upland’s one-of-a-kind design
In the Jeep Avenger 4xe Upland, Jeep has designed every aspect of the vehicle to embody resilience and adventure. The exterior immediately captures attention with its rugged upgrades, including redesigned fog lights that are placed higher and further outward, improving visibility in challenging nighttime driving conditions. The roof rails and rear tow hook are practical additions, enhancing both the vehicle’s capability and its rugged, adventurous aesthetic. The front and rear bumpers , constructed from mold-in-color material with an anti-scratch finish, ensure the Avenger maintains its durability and pristine look even in rough conditions. The front bumper is particularly noteworthy, with an exposed wheel design that offers improved safety on rocky terrain, while its elevated and prominent cladding protects critical elements like the number plate from impact.
To further underscore its rugged character, the front lower grill and radar are shielded by reinforced bumpers, increasing the vehicle’s robustness in off-road environments. Additionally, the new optional hood sticker adds both style and function by reducing sun glare, making it easier to navigate under bright conditions. With its striking green accents , 17” black alloy wheels, full LED reflector headlamps, body-colored door handles, and silver skid plates, the Upland model offers a bold yet refined aesthetic that sets it apart from other SUVs.
Inside, the Avenger 4xe Upland features a cabin designed to be as functional as it is comfortable, perfect for adventurers. The seats are crafted from highly durable and washable materials, offering twice the resistance of standard fabrics. This practical choice makes the interior not only stylish but also perfect for those who embrace the outdoors, ensuring that the cabin remains in excellent condition despite frequent exposure to dirt and water. The refined interior also includes a black headliner, and a silver-accented dashboard with a dedicated 4xe logo, adding a touch of sophistication to the rugged design. The synth leather steering wheel, coupled with auto climate control selections , ensures that every ride is comfortable and tailored to the needs of the occupants.
Beyond comfort, the Avenger 4xe Upland is equipped with an impressive array of advanced technologies and driver assistance features that elevate the driving experience. The 10.25” radio screen and matching 10.25” full digital cluster offer seamless integration of infotainment and driving data, providing a modern, connected driving experience. The Adaptive Cruise Control enhances highway driving by automatically adjusting the vehicle’s speed to maintain a safe distance from other cars.
On winding or mountainous roads, features like Hill Descent Control provide extra confidence, with the latter ensuring smooth and controlled descents on steep slopes. For those navigating busy urban environments, the 180° rear camera offers a “drone view” perspective, making parking and maneuvering easier and safer. In terms of connectivity, the Telematic Box and Connected Services allow drivers to remain informed and in control of vehicle functions via a smartphone, adding convenience to the everyday driving experience.
The thoughtful inclusion of an auto-dimming mirror minimizes glare from other vehicles at night, while automatic high beams adjust brightness based on road conditions and oncoming traffic. Furthermore, the electric parking brake offers the convenience of a modern braking system that requires minimal effort, and keyless start provides ease of use for busy, on-the-go drivers.
Jeep Avenger 4xe The North Face Limited Edition
The Jeep Avenger 4xe The North Face Edition, born from the collaboration of two legendary brands, stands at the pinnacle of the Jeep Avenger range. This highly exclusive vehicle takes the Avenger’s potential to new heights, offering a perfect synergy between Jeep’s iconic off-road legacy and The North Face’s expertise in outdoor exploration. Together, they have crafted a product that embraces the great outdoors and redefines the concept of exploration, all while championing electrified mobility. This unique configuration serves as a tribute to the natural world, embodying both brands’ shared core values and commitment to adventure and environmental responsibility.
The North Face Edition reflects the excellence both Jeep and The North Face represent, merging their distinctive elements in a product that perfectly encapsulates the philosophy of sustainable exploration.
Nature, and particularly the mountains, serves as the primary source of inspiration for this partnership. The vehicle will be produced in a limited run of 4,806 units, a symbolic number reflecting the height of Mont Blanc, the tallest mountain in Europe. The design of the Avenger 4xe mirrors the dramatic shapes and features of this iconic peak, paying homage to the strength and elegance of the mountainous landscape. This attention to detail extends beyond the vehicle itself. Jeep and The North Face have also created a dedicated welcome kit for buyers – The North Face Explore Pack – including a tent, duffle bag, and water bottle, all adorned with the brands’ logos. The kit’s signature Summit Gold color, a nod to The North Face’s legendary shade, is a distinctive and recognizable feature throughout the collaboration.
The Summit Gold also plays a prominent role in the vehicle’s exterior design, complementing its nature-inspired palette of Storm, Volcano, and Snow. These neutral mimetic tones, strategically designed to blend seamlessly with the natural environment, are enhanced by refined accents, such as 17” black alloy wheels with gold details, Jeep’s signature seven-slot grille featuring topographic lines and glossy black rings, and a Summit Gold skid plate protection insert. The antireflective hood sticker, another functional and aesthetic addition, bears the Summit Gold color and The North Face logo, visually merging the two brands’ identities in a powerful tribute to their shared ethos of exploration.
Inside, the cabin is also a celebration of the natural world. The dashboard incorporates topographic lines, with a silhouette of Mont Blanc and the inscription One of 4806 proudly displayed below the Avenger logo, emphasizing the limited edition’s connection to the peak’s height. The custom floor mats are designed with 3D mountain ranges, offering passengers a literal foothold on nature.
The seats, a true hallmark of this collaboration, are crafted from durable, washable materials and accented with Summit Gold outline. They also include an exclusive design detail that echoes The North Face’s famous puffer jackets, complete with elastic straps on the seatbacks, reminiscent of those on The North Face backpacks. The seats’ backs feature the brand’s logo, an unmistakable nod to the outdoor gear that has become The North Face signature, since it’s the only position visible when an athlete is climbing.
Adding to the sense of exclusivity and practicality, the Avenger 4xe The North Face Edition includes an array of advanced features such as multi-color ambient lighting, a navigation system, a heated windshield for cold-weather adventures, and heated front seats for comfort during winter expeditions. The vehicle’s functional features further underscore its modern capability, with passive entry and a hands-free power liftgate making it easier to load up gear and head out on the next adventure.
