Jeep’s Electric Debut: Introducing the Wagoneer S
Jeep is setting the stage for its grand entrance into the electric vehicle market later this year with the release of the Wagoneer S, its first-ever EV. Slated for availability this fall, the Wagoneer S embodies Jeep’s commitment to electrification, following the brand’s announcement of three electric models last year.
Dynamic Features and Unmatched Power
The Wagoneer S is not just about eco-friendly driving; it promises to blend style, speed, and power under the umbrella of Jeep’s renowned 4xe capabilities, featuring comprehensive all-terrain management systems. This model boasts an impressive 600 horsepower and achieves a 0 to 60 mph sprint in roughly 3.5 seconds, positioning it as a high-performance electric SUV.
Innovative Design and Extended Range
Jeep has meticulously designed the Wagoneer S to optimize aerodynamic efficiency, incorporating a modern twist on the iconic seven-slot grille, now illuminated with LED lights. Targeting a range of approximately 400 miles on a single charge, the Wagoneer S is engineered to travel from New York City to Toronto without stopping to recharge, setting a new standard for electric travel.

What’s Next for Jeep’s EV Lineup?
Production of the electric Wagoneer S kicks off this year, with sales commencing in the US this fall and subsequent releases planned for other key global markets. Following the Wagoneer S, Jeep will introduce the Recon EV, an off-road-ready SUV inspired by the legendary Wrangler, complete with removable doors and windows for an immersive outdoor experience.
Jeep’s All-Electric Future
Looking ahead, Jeep’s ambitious roadmap includes the launch of an all-electric Wrangler by 2028, with an electric Grand Cherokee set to debut in 2027. This strategy aligns with Stellantis’ Dare Forward 2030 initiative, aiming for half of its US sales to be electric by 2030. Despite joining the EV market later than some, Jeep is leveraging its strong brand loyalty to navigate the transition to electric vehicles successfully.
