Review: 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe<\/h4>\n

Grand Cherokee goes green<\/p>\n

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!<\/p>\n

Jeep is going electric \u2026 off-road and on.<\/p>\n

The Jeep Recon and Wagoneer S midsize SUVs revealed Thursday will be the brand’s first-ever fully electric vehicles in the U.S. when they go on sale in 2024.<\/p>\n

Jeep has found great success with the plug-in hybrid Wrangler 4xe, which is the best-selling plug-in hybrid in the U.S., and is planning for half of its models to be all-electric by 2030.<\/p>\n

The new siblings are built on the same platform, but target very different markets.<\/p>\n

JEEP HAS REINVENTED ITS WINDSHIELD WIPER. HERE’S HOW IT WORKS<\/p>\n

\"The <\/p>\n

\n The Jeep Recon is an all-electric off-road SUV.
\n (Jeep)<\/p>\n

The Recon is an extreme off-roader inspired by the Wrangler, while the Wagoneer S is very much a street-smart luxury performance machine, although its name might change before it goes on sale.<\/p>\n

\"The <\/p>\n

\n The Recon is similar in size to the Wrangler.
\n (Jeep)<\/p>\n

The Recon features a boxy, utilitarian body in the same vein as the Wrangler, but has a full-width hood instead of separate dropped fenders, with a front trunk “frunk” under it.<\/p>\n

\"The <\/p>\n

\n The Recon has removable doors and rear quarter windows.
\n (Jeep)<\/p>\n

It also has exposed door hinges which allow for the doors to be taken completely off, removable rear quarter windows and a panoramic power-opening fabric top.<\/p>\n

\"The <\/p>\n

\n The Recon is equipped with a full panoramic fabric opening roof.
\n (Jeep)<\/p>\n

Jeep has not revealed power and driving range specifications, but said it will have the Trail Rated designation that means it is capable of traversing California’s difficult Rubicon Trail.<\/p>\n

THE 2023 JEEP WAGONEER L AND GRAND WAGONEER L ARE SUPERSIZED SUVS<\/p>\n

The Wagoneer S cannot do that, but it will be able to accelerate to 60 mph in about 3.5 seconds thanks to a 600 hp all-wheel-drive system. It is also expected to have a driving range of 400 miles per charge.<\/p>\n

\"The <\/p>\n

\n The Wagoneer S rides on the same platform as the Recon, but is a luxury performance model.
\n (Jeep)<\/p>\n

The Wagoneer S is similar in size to the Grand Cherokee and features several cool design features that make it look bigger than it is from some angles.<\/p>\n

\"\u00a0The <\/p>\n

\n \u00a0The Wagoneer S has several features that improve its aerodynamic efficiency.
\n (Jeep)<\/p>\n

The grille is actually a flow-through section that allows air to flow over a sloped hood and give it sleeker aerodynamics. A rear wing at the trailing edge of the roof creates the similar illusion of a more upright body than what’s really there.<\/p>\n

\"The <\/p>\n

\n The Jeep Avenger is a subcompact EV designed for Europe.
\n (Jeep)<\/p>\n

Jeep is also launching a subcompact SUV called the Avenger for Europe in 2023, but currently has no plans to offer it in the United States.<\/p>\n

Prices for the Recon and Wagoneer S have not been announced, but both will be built in North America qualifying them for some federal tax credits and the order books will open early next year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
