Jeep has been on a bit of an electrification kick as of late, as it prepares to add a plug-in hybrid Gladiator 4xe to its lineup, as well as the Avenger 4xe in Europe. We’ve known for some time that the all-electric 2024 Jeep Wagoneer S was on the way as well, given the fact that Stellantis has teased this future Ford Mustang Mach-E rival on not just one, but two different occasions over the past couple of years. Now, the 2024 Jeep Wagoneer S has been officially unveiled in its entirety.
On the outside, the 2024 Jeep Wagoneer S looks very much like a product from that particular brand, featuring its famous seven-slot front grille that contains welcome lighting, coupled with a familiar silhouette. The Wagoneer S Launch Edition – which arrives first – will also feature a host of darkened elements like gloss black 20-inch wheels, paired with dark neutral gray bits and pieces on the outside. Inside the cabin, the Wagoneer S features 45 inches of usable screen space, with a 12.3-inch unit in the center.
Underneath, the 2024 Jeep Wagoneer S rides on the new EV-focused STLA Large platform, and it’s powered by a pair of electric motors generating 600 horsepower and 617 pound-feet of torque, driving all four wheels and propelling the crossover from 0-60 in 3.4 seconds. Those motors are powered by a 400-volt, 100-kilowatt-hour battery pack that can be DC fast-charged from 20-80 percent in 23 minutes, with range estimated to come in at around 300 miles.
The 2024 Jeep Wagoneer S Launch Edition is slated to go on sale this fall with an MSRP of $71,995 including destination charges, with other trims following thereafter. Then, it’ll do battle with a number of other EV crossovers, including the Mach-E, which received a handful of updates for the 2024 model year including the addition of the new Bronze Appearance Package and Rally trim, along with new, more efficient e-motors.

$72k for a Jeep is a hard pill to swallow…
By the time you leave the dearler your at 85000. How long will the battery last? What will it cost to replace?
That’s a lot of money for people shopping for an EV when you can get a Model Y for 40k. Tesla.plays games with its numbers too, so that makes it harder to compete with.
It’s basically an electric Grand Cherokee. I don’t think that’s a bad thing, and 600hp 3.4 0-60 is pretty good. An SRT version of this with more like 800hp would probably be appealing.
That said, I think they’re gonna struggle to sell these at that price point. Ford learned that price sells EVs, Model Y is a total.piece of garbage yet it sells best of all EVs because it’s cheap.
When these are sitting on the lots unsold fully loaded at like 50-55k they might sell.
