Jeep's first EV is quiet luxury. Leave the doors on, enjoy the posh seats, and leave the off-roading to the Wrangler.

This is it folks, our chance to drive the world’s first-ever all-electric Jeep has arrived. It’s called the Wagoneer S, and as you can tell by its nameplate, it’s a version of the Auburn Hills’ automaker's flagship model.

An all-electric Jeep was inevitable. That's simply the reality of current government mandates and initiatives. The trick is for Jeep to make a high-amperage electric that still looks and drives the way Jeep buyers expect.

The Jeep Wagoneer S EV will be judged against the heritage and ethos of the brand. “Is it a real Jeep?” The answer is yes, but it’s complicated.

Jeep has officially entered the EV market with the 2024 Wagoneer S, its first fully electric model for North America. Built on the STLA Large platform, this all-electric SUV is positioned as a premium two-row alternative to the Grand Cherokee.

The 2025 Jeep Wagoneer S is arriving at dealers now and starts at $71,995. This all-electric two-row Jeep uses a 100.5-kWh battery pack to feed 250-kW drive modules at the front and rear and is good for 303 miles of range.

The $71,995 2024 Jeep Wagoneer S Launch Edition piles on the standard equipment—everything from heated and cooled power front seats, all the digital displays, wireless smartphone charging, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and delicious sound that emanates from a 1,200-watt McIntosh sound system with 19 speakers and a 12-inch subwoofer.

The 2024 Jeep Wagoneer S Launch Edition is a cleanly styled, convincingly upscale, and competitively equipped electric SUV. My main complaints are its high price, hard-to-keep-clean screens, and dissatisfying steering. In nearly all other respects, this is a premium EV worth considering.

An all-electric Jeep was inevitable. That's simply the reality of current government mandates and initiatives. The trick is for Jeep to make a high-amperage electric that still looks and drives the way Jeep buyers expect.

We’ll spare you a chronology of Jeep’s electrification misadventures; suffice it to say that the Wagoneer S was supposed to arrive last year, along with the Jeep Recon EV, giving the brand two all-electric offerings in the U.
