Jeep Avenger India Launch Date, Features, and Expected Price Revealed

We’ve been closely tracking the launch of the much-awaited Jeep Avenger in India, and here’s everything we’ve gathered from trusted sources. This compact SUV has already made news in global markets, and now it’s India’s turn to experience it. Jeep is planning to bring both petrol and electric variants, making it suitable for a wide range of Indian buyers. Let us take you through its launch details, features, price expectations, and why this car is something to watch out for.

Jeep Avenger India Launch Date

From what we found in our research, the Jeep Avenger is expected to be launched in India around December 2026. But the launch will be done in parts. First, the petrol (ICE) variant will be introduced, possibly by the end of 2025 or early 2026. Later, towards the end of 2026, Jeep will bring the electric variant (EV) to the Indian market.

This phased launch will help Jeep understand the Indian market response better and adjust their offerings accordingly.

Expected Price of Jeep Avenger in India

Based on our comparisons and price trends in the compact SUV market, we expect the Jeep Avenger to be priced between ₹8 lakh and ₹12 lakh (ex-showroom).

Here’s how the pricing might work:

• The base petrol variant could start around ₹8 lakh.
• The top petrol variant may go up to ₹10-11 lakh.
• The electric version might fall between ₹11 lakh to ₹12 lakh.

This price range puts the Avenger in direct competition with some of the most popular compact SUVs in India like the Tata Nexon, Hyundai Venue, Kia Sonet, Maruti Suzuki Brezza, and Mahindra XUV300.

Variants and Features We Can Expect

From our review of Jeep’s global model line-up and what Indian buyers usually expect, we believe Jeep may offer three main variants in India:

Variant	Features You May Get
Longitude	LED headlamps, touchscreen infotainment, alloy wheels, standard safety features
Altitude	Bigger touchscreen, dual-zone climate control, connected car tech, better interiors
Summit	Panoramic sunroof, ADAS safety tech, 360-degree camera, wireless charging, premium materials

These names are used globally, and Jeep might change them slightly for the Indian market. But the feature distribution is likely to remain similar.

Engine and Performance Options

Petrol (ICE) Variant

• The Jeep Avenger petrol version will likely come with a 1.2-litre turbocharged engine.
• It could produce up to 109 bhp power and 190 Nm of torque.
• We expect it to have a 6-speed manual gearbox.
• Automatic transmission may be introduced later, based on demand.
• Jeep may not offer a diesel engine at launch.

This petrol engine is similar to what we have seen in the Citroen C3, so we believe it will be refined and fuel-efficient.

Electric (EV) Variant

The electric version of the Avenger is expected to offer strong performance:

• Battery Capacity: 54 kWh
• Power: 156 PS (approx. 154 bhp)
• Torque: 260 Nm
• Range: Up to 400 km on full charge (WLTP tested), and up to 500 km in city use
• Charging Times:
  • Fast charger (100 kW): 20-80% in 24 minutes
  • AC charger (11 kW): Full charge in around 5.5 hours

This electric setup puts it in the same range as the Tata Nexon EV and Mahindra XUV400.

Exterior Design and Road Presence

We looked at official images and reviews from global markets, and the Jeep Avenger surely has a bold road presence. Some key exterior highlights:

• Jeep’s iconic seven-slot grille
• LED headlamps and taillamps
• High ground clearance and muscular stance
• 16-inch to 18-inch alloy wheels, depending on the variant
• Black body cladding and skid plates for a sporty and rugged look
• Roof rails and shark-fin antenna add to the SUV feel

The overall design is boxy yet modern, which we think will attract both young buyers and families.

Interior Features and Comfort

Inside, the Avenger seems to offer a premium feel with practical features. Here’s what we expect:

• Two-tone dashboard, inspired by the new Citroen C3
• Digital instrument cluster (7 or 10.25-inch, based on the variant)
• 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system
• Wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay
• Ambient lighting in top variants
• Rear AC vents and flexible seat folding options
• Good boot space for weekend trips or city drives
• USB Type-C charging ports at the front and rear

From our research, we feel Jeep is trying to blend comfort, technology, and functionality inside the Avenger.

Safety and Technology

Safety is a growing concern for Indian buyers, and Jeep appears to have packed the Avenger with solid safety features, especially in the top trims. Expected safety features include:

• ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems)
  • Lane-keeping assist
  • Adaptive cruise control
  • Emergency braking
  • Blind spot monitoring
  • Driver drowsiness alert
• 360-degree camera with drone view
• 6 airbags, ABS with EBD, ESC, hill start assist
• ISOFIX mounts for child seats

These features will be available mostly in the top-end variants, but basic safety like ABS, airbags, and rear sensors should be standard across all trims.

Rivals in the Market

Once launched, the Jeep Avenger will compete with:

• Tata Nexon
• Hyundai Venue
• Kia Sonet
• Maruti Suzuki Brezza
• Mahindra XUV300
• Renault Kiger
• Nissan Magnite

These cars are already well-established, but we think the Jeep brand value, rugged design, and multiple powertrain options will give the Avenger an edge.

Final Words from Our Side

After analyzing various details, comparing features, and understanding what Indian SUV buyers want, we feel that the Jeep Avenger could be a game-changer in its segment.

With a combination of:

• Modern urban looks
• Practical petrol engine
• Strong electric performance
• Advanced safety features
• And attractive pricing

Jeep is aiming to capture attention in one of India’s most competitive car segments.
