Jeep is preparing to launch several new all-electric vehicles in the US in the coming years, including the Recon 4xe and Wagoneer S. The EV concepts were recently shown off at a dealer conference for the first time in person. Take a look at the images below.
New Images Reveal Jeep’s First EV, the Recon Moab 4xe
Under the umbrella of the Stellantis brands with Dodge and Ram Trucks, Jeep revealed that it would target 50% of US sales to be all-electric by 2030 as part of the company’s Dare Forward 2030 plan.
Jeep says it plans to become the leader in zero-emission SUVs by bringing the four virtues it values most to the EV era, which include freedom, adventure, authenticity, and passion.
The maker of rugged SUVs is transitioning its iconic 4×4 technology to an electric future with 4xe. Jeep says its 4xe electric technology is more powerful than its predecessor, with higher torque on demand for instant acceleration and rock/mountain climbing.
The first Jeep to be launched in North America is the Recon 4xe, inspired by its legendary Wrangler name. Jeep (Stellantis) held an event at the MGM in Las Vegas, where they showed off the EV concepts in person. Here are the first images of the Recon EV concept posted on the Jeep Recon Forum.
Jeep says its Recon 4xe model will have everything the 4×4 line has to offer, only with zero emissions and more power and capability than ever before. The concept features aggressive off-road tires, traction control, tow hooks, and removable doors/windows for an open-air feel.
The Recon Moab is expected to be the top trim option based on the concepts badge you can see in the images above.
The director of Jeep North America says that “the all-new, all-electric Jeep Recon has the ability to cross the mighty Rubicon Trail, one of the most challenging off-road trails in the US, and reach the end of the trail with enough range. to drive back to the city and recharge.”
Production of the Recon electric vehicle is expected to begin in 2024, with the first models available the following year.
The next planned EV model will be the premium Wagoneer S, an electric upgrade to its luxury SUV. The Wagoneer S will come fully loaded, according to the automaker, with 400 hp and up to 400 miles of range on a single charge.
Jeep claims the Grand Wagoneer S is designed to go from New York City to Toronto with an estimated range of 500 miles.
Reservations will begin later this year, and the electric Wagoneer will also go into production in 2024.
