The Jeep Avenger Turbo is already undergoing testing in Brazil and promises to be a strong competitor to the Yaris Cross. Discover all the details about the Jeep SUV that is about to arrive, bringing innovation and performance to the automotive market.

When the new generation of the Renegade was officially discarded for Brazil, Stellantis announced that it is working full steam ahead on the new Jeep Avenger Turbo for our market. The new Jeep SUV, which rivals the Yaris Cross, will be the brand's cheapest in the country.

Jeep SUV delivers up to 130 hp of power

The Jeep Avenger Turbo is a mini SUV from Jeep that is expected to be launched in Brazil in 2025. It is now undergoing testing on Brazilian streets and its launch should bring a very significant sales volume for the brand in Brazil, as it will be the cheapest new Jeep SUV in Europe.

The model has already been launched with several turbo hybrid electric engine options and here in Brazil it should be launched first with the Turbo engine under the hood.

O Yaris Cross rival will have a 1.0 turboflex engine L with three cylinders with single camshaft and chain drive and it has a maximum power with ethanol of 130 horsepower. With gasoline it yields 125 hp and the maximum torque is 20,4 kgfm with both gasoline or ethanol and the The gearbox will be an automatic CVT that simulates seven gears. 

Jeep's new SUV will also have a version exactly like the Pulse here in Brazil. The Jeep Avenger Turbo should sell well due to its design and finishes. It will be produced nationally, in the state of Pernambuco in the city of Goiana along with its siblings. Jeep Compassif Renegade. 

What is the interior of the new Jeep Avenger Turbo like?

The compact SUV was highly rejected in clinics held in Brazil due to its interior finish. The Yaris Cross' rival uses a lot of hard plastic in the construction of its dashboard, which is something that Brazilians do not accept in a Jeep, as seen in the finish of the Renegade, which is a reference in the category.

Therefore, the main task of the engineering and design team at Stellantis in Brazil is to improve the finish of the Jeep Avenger Turbo. Inside, the new Jeep SUV will receive new rubberized lining on the upper part of the doors, while in Europe the part is hard. The door fabric will also receive a more generous layer of foam.

Another change will be in the lower part of the Yars Cross rival's dashboard, just below the plastic strip that, in Europe, is part of the bodywork. Better quality materials will also be used in the Jeep Avenger Turbo, but it is also likely that it will still be hard plastic, after all, even in the Commander this lower part is hard. The textures should change and receive higher quality.

New SUV will arrive with a revamped look for Brazil

The important new feature of the Yaris Cross' rival will be the gearshift knob of the automatic versions. Currently in Europe, the automatic or electric Jeep Avenger receive the same gear selector as the Fiat 500e, made with buttons, in addition to having the driving mode selector made with a Peugeot part.

For Brazil, the brand will install a standard gear knob, similar to the one on the Renegade. This is because the idea is to convey the sophistication and robustness that the brand demands here. The electronic parking brake will be maintained, but the button will change location due to the change in the central control.

On the outside, the Brazilian Jeep Avenger Turbo will debut with a new look, possibly exclusive to Brazil. Stellantis will change the entire front of the model, completely altering the bumper, front grille and headlights.

In Brazil, any car that is cheap will be the best seller.
If any SUV car comes along for under 80k, I buy it, not for the style, not for the engine, not for the interior, but for the price.
In Brazil, the abusive prices are a disgrace.

I saw this car in Europe and it really is very nice. It's not as big as the Renegade, but it's a nice size. But let's be honest, if the Kwid is being sold for 70 thousand, does anyone believe that a Jeep will be sold for 95 thousand?
I wish... It certainly won't cost less than 110 thousand. There may even be a version for people with disabilities, a super **** (even without the trunk lid like the Renegade) for a more affordable price. But a nice entry-level version won't cost less than 110 thousand, unfortunately. The discourse is always the same between expectation and reality. We live in a country of abusive taxes on everything related to cars.

Where did the information about the value come from???
A car with a turbo engine and automatic transmission for 95 thousand???
This article is just for viewing purposes, as a journalist with a minimum of knowledge of the Brazilian automotive market would not believe such information.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that exactly what the Citroen Basalt Feel Turbo brings for 97k?
