The all-new, all-electric Jeep Recon is an off-road SUV with a difference. The vehicle is making history as Jeep’s first fully electric SUV to earn the prestigious Trail Rated badge, signifying its authentic off-road capability.
ENGINEERED FOR ADVENTURE
Charging into the future with the debut of the Recon, Jeep is introducing the only fully electric Trail Rated SUV on the market.
Delivering legendary Jeep 4×4 capability in a fully electrified package, the Recon is purposefully designed to blend powerful performance with authentic 4xe system capability.
A Jeep-exclusive Selec-Terrain traction management system offers drive modes across a wide variety of terrains and conditions.
With 650 horsepower, 620 pound-feet (lb/ft) of torque, and 0-60 miles per hour (mph) of acceleration in as little as 3.6 seconds, the Jeep Recon offers precise drive control.
Jeep CEO, Bob Broderdorf, notes how the model remails true to the brand’s core values of freedom, adventure, and capability, ready to take Jeep enthusiasts into the future without compromising on the legendary performance they’ve come to expect.
Indeed, with an estimated all-electric range of up to 250 miles, Jeep is proving that electrification isn’t just compatible with off-road excellence but can elevate it.
Manufacturing and production of the vehicle began this year at Stellantis’ Toluca Assembly Plant in New Mexico, with initial launches anticipated imminently in the US and Canada, followed by global expansion.
OFF-ROAD DOMINANCE
Stellantis-designed electric drive modules (EDMs) are at the core of the Jeep Recon’s propulsion system, which combines an electric motor, gearing, and power electronics into a single compact unit for enhanced efficiency and instant torque on demand.
For a satisfying off-road driving experience, engineers have tailored the vehicle’s throttle pedal to deliver torque in a controlled and precise manner.
Off-road performance is further enhanced by electronic locking that delivers maximum traction when navigating challenging terrains, along with a robust suspension system engineered for stability and control both on and off-road.
Purpose-built skid plates and all-terrain tires reinforce the Recon’s Trail Rated credentials, ensuring durability and protection in demanding environments.
Designed with adventure in mind, the Recon also features a removable roof and doors, allowing drivers to experience the kind of open-air freedom that has long defined the Jeep brand.
The cabin’s interior, meanwhile, balances rugged functionality with modern technology, offering intuitive digital displays and advanced connectivity features that keep drivers informed and in control wherever their journey leads.
VEHICLES THAT WITHSTAND ADVENTURE
At the heart of the Jeep Recon’s electric architecture is a battery system engineered to balance range, durability, and off-road resilience.
Strategically positioned within the vehicle’s structure, the battery remains protected no matter the outside conditions.
This thoughtful integration not only supports confident handling across various terrains but also reinforces Jeep’s long-standing commitment to building vehicles that can withstand real-world adventure.
Designed to accommodate a range of charging solutions, the vehicle’s charging flexibility further enhances its everyday usability.
The all-electric SUV supports both home and public charging infrastructure, helping drivers transition seamlessly between daily commutes and extended journeys.
Whether plugged in overnight or recharged on the go, the Recon reflects Jeep’s understanding that electrification must be both practical and progressive.
A NEW ERA OF OFF-ROAD PERFORMANCE
Functionality remains paramount to the Jeep Recon, with durable materials and thoughtfully placed controls designed to withstand active lifestyles.
The interior layout emphasises visibility and ease of use, reinforcing its dual role as both a capable trail vehicle and a comfortable daily driver.
It also represents a key milestone in the company’s broader electrification strategy by combining zero-emission performance with unmistakable Jeep capability.
As part of Stellantis’ global push towards sustainable mobility, the vehicle demonstrates how electrification can be integrated without sacrificing identity or capability.
It signals not just an evolution in electrification, but a reaffirmation of Jeep’s commitment to pushing boundaries.
For Jeep loyalists, the message is clear – electrification does not signal an end to adventure.
Instead, it opens the door to new possibilities, delivering instant torque, precise control, and reduced environmental impact whilst preserving the freedom that has always defined the brand.
Looking ahead, the Jeep Recon is poised to lead the charge into a new era of off-road performance.
