Jeep® Avenger: Italy’s Best-Selling SUV of 2024

The Jeep® Avenger (JJ) has secured its position as the best-selling SUV in Italy for the first seven months of 2024. According to Dataforce’s market analysis, the achievement highlights the European-produced and designed subcompact Jeep’s ability to cater to Italian consumers’ preferences and needs.

Leading the B-SUV Segment – 

The Jeep Avenger’s dominance in the B-SUV segment is a testament to its appeal. This subcompact SUV encapsulates Jeep DNA with its distinctive design and impressive versatility. Since its launch, the Avenger has garnered significant recognition, receiving seventeen awards from the international press for its innovation, style, and functionality.

The Jeep Avenger offers a range of powertrain options to suit different driving preferences. It is available with an all-electric version, the Avenger-e, providing a sustainable driving experience. For those who prefer a traditional combustion engine, a turbocharged 1.2-liter inline-three-cylinder delivers 100 horsepower. Additionally, the e-HYBRID variant combines the benefits of electric and gasoline power for enhanced efficiency. By the end of the year, Jeep plans to introduce the 4xe model, a hybrid with all-wheel-drive (AWD) off-road capability and versatility.

Jeep Renegade: A Strong Contender – 

In addition to the Avenger, the Italian-built Jeep Renegade (BV) continues to make its mark on the B-SUV segment. Thanks to its plug-in hybrid (PHEV) 4xe technology, the Renegade offers an excellent balance of performance and sustainability. This technology is also offered on other Jeep models like the Compass, Grand Cherokee, and Wrangler, enhancing their performance while reducing emissions.

Market Impact – 

Jeep’s success with the Avenger and Renegade has significantly bolstered its presence in the Italian market. From January to July 2024, Jeep secured the seventh position in market share, holding close to 4.5%. The Jeep Avenger’s status as the best-selling SUV in Italy clearly indicates its widespread appeal and the Jeep brand’s strong market position.
