If no one tells you, it's impossible to imagine the next Jeep hitting the market early next year running on electricity.
Its appearance could almost make it pass for a Renegade evolution.
Looking more closely, we observe that the seven vertical bars which act as a grille – the signature of the American brand – are closed, a sign of the presence of an electric traction chain.

The first zero-emission Jeep will be presented as a world premiere to the public at the next Paris Motor Show to be held in Paris, Porte de Versailles, from October 18 to 23.
A show that will unfortunately only be global in name due to the disaffection of many manufacturers.
Jeep Avengers.

Baptized Avenger, the first electric Jeep will position itself below the Renegade in size, the length not exceeding 4.15 m.
Produced in the Tichy factory in Poland, this small SUV can flatter itself with attractive lines highlighted by the marked wheel arches.
As the newest child of the Stellantis galaxy, the Avenger bows to the discipline of the group.
It is thus based on the redesigned CMP platform of the Peugeot e-2008 and the DS3 Crossback e-Tense.
Not only, the Jeep would benefit from a new evolution of the battery but also of the electric machine.
Technical information has not yet been disclosed, except for an announced range of 400 km with a full charge.
Jeep obliges, the Avenger will also be distinguished from its French cousins by the presence of a small electric motor on the rear axle to provide four-wheel drive.
Finally, to know the interior, it will still be necessary to wait a few weeks.
