With states like California in the U.S.
for a complete ban on the sale of gas-powered cars, many car companies need to accelerate their design pipeline and test the waters with multiple models.Jeep's entry into the battery electric vehicles is markedly delayed. However, that isn't stopping the company management from aiming high as it wants to become the leading e-SUV brand on the market. It also set some ambitious goals, with a 100 percent passenger BEV sales target in Europe by the end of the decade.
Jeep has no qualms in accepting that the Recon is "highly inspired" by its Wrangler and that the latter's features, like exposed door hinges spill over into Recon's design too. According toRecon was meant to be the name of Wrangler and other Jeep models with bigger tires and a suspension-lifted vehicle body to accommodate them.With Jeep shifting its focus to BEVs, the Recon will only be an all-electric SUV.
Jeep will also bundle its Selec-Terrain traction management system while including the latest iteration of Stellantis' UConnect software that will give car owners access to detailed guides on off-road trails. Recon is meant for the North American and European markets and is expected to be available in 2024. Reservations will be available from 2023.
