First announced in September 2022, the Wagoneer S EV is finally ready for launch. Here are the stats of Jeep’s first electric vehicle and what it means for the brand’s electric future.

Jeep’s Wagoneer S Electric Vehicle

The Wagoneer S is not messing around with its specs. For the launch edition, the Wagoneer S offers over 300 miles on a single charge, a 600-hp powertrain capable of 0-60 in 3.4 seconds, and all-wheel drive. Despite being smaller than the Jeep Grand Cherokee, this two-row, five-seat SUV provides all the room you need for comfort without the bulk. The sporty two-spoke steering wheel, wall-to-wall screens spanning the large dashboard with plenty of room for rubber ducks, and McIntosh audio system come standard at launch for a luxury SUV to rival the competition.

We did say ‘luxury’ and the price point reflects that. The Wagoneer S may cause some sticker shock at $70,200, reflecting the quality of all its amazing features. This may make the model less accessible for those looking for more affordable EV models – but rumors say Jeep isn’t done yet.

Jeep’s Electric Breakthrough

Following the unveiling of the Wagoneer S, Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares revealed that Jeep is developing an EV priced at $25,000. This undisclosed compact SUV draws comparisons to the European Citroën ë-C3, which also starts at around $25,000. The Citroën, a compact SUV, features 113 horsepower and a range of under 200 miles, specifications that are likely to be adjusted to meet the American market’s emphasis on power and range.

Beyond the initial investment in EVs, Jeep also intends to boost plug-in hybrid SUV sales by around 50% in 2024. PHEVs, which combine an internal combustion engine with EV technologies, could help accelerate consumer adoption of electrified Jeep vehicles as the company attempts to develop its all-electric line. Currently, Jeep offers two great PHEV models – the Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe and the Jeep Wrangler 4xe.
