Jeep Avenger 2023 European Car of the Year The jury of professional motoring journalists is usually a 61-member panel from across the continent, but on this occasion, four Russian judges were forced to sit out in response to their country's invasion of Ukraine. Each of the judges has 25 points to distribute, which must be distributed among at least five cars and not give more than 10 points to any vehicle. The Avenger is based on the same Stellantis platform as the 2008 Peugeot and Opel Mokka, and is currently available as an EV, though a 1.2-liter three-cylinder ICE version will be added. But being designed specifically with Europe in mind, the 160.5-inch (4076mm) small SUV won't make it to the US.
