Can Jeep\u2019s first EV compete with Tesla in the US? Ahead of its official debut, Jeep<\/a> is already comparing its Wagoneer S electric SUV to Tesla\u2019s best-selling Model Y in a new teaser video. With 600 horsepower and over 300 miles range, is the electric Jeep up to the challenge?<\/p>\n

\t<\/p>\n

Jeep is launching its first fully electric vehicle in the US this year as it looks to revamp the brand. The first to roll out will be the Jeep Wagoneer S, a premium all-electric SUV.<\/p>\n

Based on the Stellantis STLA Large platform, Jeep says its EV is \u201clightning fast,\u201d with a 0 to 60 mph in 3.4 seconds.<\/p>\n

Leading up to its debut, Jeep has teased the Wagoneer S<\/a> several times. Its signature elements, like a new seven-slot grille and aerodynamic design, have been updated for the modern era.<\/p>\n

We got our first look at the electric SUV\u2019s interior earlier this year. Jeep included a tech-rich interior with plenty of controls and screens. Jeep equipped the EV with a custom driver control center and its Selec-Terrain toggle with Sand, Snow, Eco, Auto, and Sport modes.<\/p>\n

The two electric SUVs are shown racing head-to-head as Jeep highlights key specs, including a 0 to 60 mph time (with rollout subtracted) in 3.4 seconds, 600 hp, 617 lb-ft of torque, and +300 estimated driving range.<\/p>\n

Jeep claims the \u201creal competition is ourselves,\u201d as a Grand Cherokee Trackhawk joins in. However, the Wagoneer S still accelerates quicker than the TrackHawk (3.4 vs 3.5 sec 0 to 60 mph time).<\/p>\n
