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.

We get behind the wheel of the 2024 Wagoneer S Launch Edition to see what Jeep's first full-electric vehicle is all about.

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.

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.

Jeep wants you to take a chance on its first EV, with discounts on the Wagoneer S, ranging from a few bucks to well over 10 grand at some dealers.
