2024 Jeep Recon EV
Overview
Electric vehicles have made their mark across nearly every segment, zapping into classes of vehicles such as full-size pickup trucks, station wagons, and luxury SUVs, but the upcoming 2024 Jeep Recon EV is coming to crawl rocks. Inspired by the Wrangler 4xe plug-in hybrid, the four-wheel-drive Recon EV is a fully electric mid-size SUV with an available power-folding rooftop and easily removable doors. Other than the Wrangler, the Ford Bronco is the only pony with tricks like that. Initial images show a tailgate-mounded spare tire, but details on price, range, battery size, and total power output haven’t been revealed yet. We can, however, see details such as an illuminated seven-slot front grille, meaty BFGoodrich T/A rubber, and seating for up to five people atop rubberized flooring. We’ll update this space as our own little reconnaissance mission for Jeep Recon info continues. In the meantime, we wait for the Recon EV’s initial production date—set for sometime in 2024—to arrive.
What’s New for 2024?
The Recon EV is set to join the upcoming Wagoneer EV as one of two electric models that will be new to the Jeep lineup. The Jeep Recon EV fits into the mid-size SUV class, so we expect it to be roughly the size of the current Jeep Wrangler or two-row Grand Cherokee. Jeep says reservations for the Recon EV will open in early 2023 with a production date set for some time in 2024.

Jeep hasn’t revealed the Recon EV’s starting price yet, but we think it’s reasonable to assume it will be more expensive than the gasoline-powered Wrangler. Given its likely off-road capability, we also think there’s a good chance the Recon EV could follow the Wrangler’s trim structure, starting with an entry-level Sport trim and quickly escalating in price and luxuriousness through to a loaded Sahara High Altitude model. When we find out more about the Recon EV’s price and available features, we’ll update this story with that information.
