Jeep wants to be the top seller of electric SUVs in the world.
But that will change, starting next year with the Europe-only Jeep Avenger. It makes sense that the automaker is targeting the European market first; Europe has a more mature EV charging network than the US, and EVs outsell gas models in many European countries, including Norway.The Jeep Avenger will have a target range of 400 kilometers and will slot into the compact SUV market under the Jeep Renegade.
Like the Wrangler, the Recon will be highly customizable, including removable doors and roof panels. Buyers will be able to “see a little bit of the Wrangler DNA infecting the design of the Recon, and that’s not by accident,” Jeep’s chief design officer Ralph Gilles said. For example, the Recon will have exposed door hinges like the Wrangler — which bucks the trend of sleek, aerodynamic body types for most EVs.
