The Jeep EVP is a 1,332 cc, inline‑three turbocharged petrol engine produced from 2021 to present, serving as the internal combustion component of a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) system. It features gasoline direct injection, a single twin‑scroll turbocharger, and dual overhead camshafts (DOHC). This compact powerplant delivers 132 kW (180 PS) and 270 Nm of torque, with its small displacement turbo design enabling strong low‑end pull that complements the electric motor for seamless urban and highway performance.
Fitted exclusively to the Renegade and Compass 4xe SUVs, the EVP engine was engineered to work in concert with an electric motor for zero-emission driving and extended range. Emissions compliance for Euro 6d was achieved through a close‑coupled three‑way catalyst and an engine management system calibrated for hybrid operation, minimizing real-world NOx and CO2 output.
One documented concern is potential failure of the engine-driven vacuum pump, noted in Stellantis service documentation. This issue, addressed in Stellantis Service Bulletin 09-040-24, is linked to premature diaphragm wear causing loss of brake booster assist. A revised pump design with reinforced diaphragm material was implemented for engines produced after May 2024.
Production years 2021–Present meet Euro 6d standards across all applicable markets (EU Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 as amended).
The Jeep EVP is a 1,332 cc inline‑three turbocharged petrol engineered for PHEV compact SUVs (2021-Present). It combines gasoline direct injection with a twin‑scroll turbocharger to deliver responsive low‑end torque that seamlessly integrates with electric propulsion. Designed to meet Euro 6d standards, it prioritizes efficiency and low emissions in hybrid operation.

The twin-scroll turbo provides brisk acceleration that complements the electric motor, but requires adherence to 15,000 km oil change intervals using Stellantis MS-12991 specification oil to manage soot and hybrid system heat. Due to its GDI system, periodic induction system cleaning (every 60,000 km) is recommended to prevent intake valve carbon buildup. The engine-driven vacuum pump is generally reliable but early units (pre-May 2024) should be monitored for brake booster issues per Stellantis SIB 09-040-24. Fuel quality meeting EN 228 standards is essential for injector longevity.
Oil Specs: Requires Stellantis MS-12991 (5W-40) specification (Stellantis Owner's Manual). Equivalent to ACEA C3.

The Jeep EVP – Petrol (PHEV) (Stellantis) was used across Jeep's Small Wide 4x4 platform with transverse mounting. This engine is integrated into the 4xe plug-in hybrid system, receiving platform-specific adaptations-unique engine mounts, hybrid cooling circuit, and exhaust routing for the Renegade and Compass-with no significant facelift revisions during its production run to date. All adaptations are documented in OEM technical bulletins.
Locate the engine code stamped on the front of the cylinder block, near the thermostat housing (Stellantis TIS ST-9715). The 8th digit of the VIN is 'P' for the 1.3T PHEV variant. Visually, the engine is identifiable by its compact inline-three layout, '1.3 MultiAir Turbo' badge on the plastic engine cover, and the presence of high-voltage orange cables nearby for the hybrid system. Differentiation from the non-hybrid 1.3L EZD engine: The EVP shares identical core hardware but is calibrated for hybrid operation and is always paired with the electric drive unit. Service parts for the core engine are generally consistent across 4xe applications.
The EVP's primary reliability consideration is potential engine-driven vacuum pump failure in early production units, with elevated incidence after 40,000 km. Stellantis service data indicates this was addressed with a running change, while owner reports often cite its general efficiency and seamless hybrid operation. Extended oil change intervals and poor maintenance accelerate wear on engine components, making adherence to the factory service schedule critical.
Analysis derived from Stellantis technical bulletins (2021-Present) and EU type-approval failure statistics (2022-2025). Repair procedures should follow manufacturer guidelines.
