Jeep will finally launch its first fully electric SUV in the US later this year. Ahead of deliveries, Jeep<\/a> is putting the Wagoneer S to the test in New Zealand\u2019s tundra to ensure the EV meets the rugged SUV brand\u2019s standards.<\/p>\n

Meet Jeep\u2019s first global EV<\/h2>\n

It\u2019s been over two months since Jeep unveiled its first global EV<\/a>, the luxury Wagoneer S. CEO Antonio Filosa boasted that the Wagoneer S is \u201cdistinctively a Jeep and 100% electric.\u201d<\/p>\n

You can see the Wagoneer S retains Jeep\u2019s signature rugged design elements but with a modern twist for the EV era.<\/p>\n

One of the most noticeable is the redesigned seven-slot grille with ambient cast lighting. Without the need to cool a massive engine, the SUV\u2019s grille is closed off, giving it a more sporty, aggressive look up front.<\/p>\n

Powered by the STLA Large platform<\/a>, the Jeep Wagoneer S features 600 hp and 617 lb-ft of torque. The added power is good for a 0 to 60 mph sprint in 3.4 seconds. In comparison, Tesla\u2019s Model Y<\/a> Performance can hit 0 to 60 mph in 3.4 seconds.<\/p>\n

With a 100 kWh battery, Jeep\u2019s electric Wagoneer gets over 300 miles range. It can also fast charge (20% to 80%) in 23 minutes.<\/p>\n

The interior is loaded with Jeep\u2019s latest tech and software. You can\u2019t miss the massive \u201cbest-in-class\u201d display with 45\u2033 of space.<\/p>\n

Jeep Wagoneer S put to the test in frigid temps<\/h2>\n

Ahead of its official launch later this year, Jeep is putting the Wagoneer S through the paces in the frigid, icy conditions of New Zealand.<\/p>\n

Filosa said on social media that Jeep engineers are \u201cperfecting the incredible vehicle dynamics and performance of the all-new Jeep Wagoneer S.\u201d<\/p>\n

The all-electric 2024 Wagoneer S delivers \u201clegendary 4xe Jeep capability\u201d and impressive performance credentials, according to Filosa.<\/p>\n

Jeep\u2019s first EV features the exclusive Selec-Terrain traction control system. For better traction and control, you can select from different modes, including Auto, Snow, Sport, Eco, and Sand.<\/p>\n

With 35% more body torsion stiffness than Jeep\u2019s other mid-size SUVs, the Wagoneer S is quieter and smoother drive.<\/p>\n

Coming to a US dealership near you<\/h2>\n

Filosa confirmed<\/a> the 2024 Jeep Wagoneer S will launch in the US and Canada later this year. In 2025, it will begin rolling out globally.<\/p>\n

The 2024 Jeep Wagoneer S Launch Edition starts at $71,995. It\u2019s expected to hit US dealerships this fall. Filosa believes Jeep\u2019s first EV can help revamp the brand by attracting buyers from rival brands.<\/p>\n

\u201cSomething like 100% will be conquested,\u201d Filosa said. \u201cThe brands we are targeting are mainly Tesla\u2026 but there are many others.\u201d Tesla\u2019s Long Range RWD Model Y starts at $44,990 with up to 320 miles range.<\/p>\n

Jeep also revealed an off-road-focused Trailhawk edition that could compete with Rivian\u2019s R1S<\/a>. Following the Wagoneer S, Jeep will launch the Wrangler-inspired Recon.<\/p>\n
