The only way this Jeep will recoup the investment is with MINIMUM a hybrid version and better yet, a conventional gasoline powered model. One other factor in the business case will be a Cherokee spin off that MUST have a Hurricane Six model. That a fact Jack.
I’d love to love this new Wagoneer but if the electric rejection by buyers continues to hold, you won’t see many of these on the road. That’s a fact Jack.
As a Jeep owner, I hope in my heart I’m wrong here, but my mind tells me different. DOA without a hybrid version. Just ask Jack.

Stellantis is expecting the Jeep badge to sell by itself now? Putting it on a low-slung crossover with all that shmutz that has nothing to do with offroading is a sin.

Stupid Willys, that company knew nothing about Jeep heritage.

Am I the only person who notices the distance between the back of the front fender well and the front door frame? This is a front drive biased model. Yes it's an EV with front and rear dive units. Based on what I'm seeing in the videos and photographs of the S, its Cherokee production-line brother will be a front drive based model when the IC engine version appears.

Jeep presented a Trail Hawk concept of the Wagoneer S soon after the launch edition was introduced, just saying. This Cherokee S would really benefit from an extended range option.

I agree with Bill. There is no way they will sell enough of these to make a profit. There are a lot of things going against it. For one is right now the anti-EV climate. Second the economy right now isn’t that great. And for people to cough up $72 grand plus for one of these is going to be very limited to the people that could afford it right now. I agree that a hybrid should be offered and maybe the I6 at a lower price, which would probably sell more. My last thought on this, just by looking at it and calling it a Wagoneer doesn’t fit the Wagoneer group of SUVs that are already out there. There is no way this is as big as the current Wagoneers that are available. This looks more like the size of the Jeep Grand Cherokee L.
So making this as an EV Wagoneer doesn’t seem to cut it .

So, how many consumers can afford this vehicle? Keep raising the prices and note, sales are growing less. It is between eating or purchasing a vehicle that sells in the same league of homes in Mississippi.

Not the target buyer ( "between eating cs buying")

There is a Youtube channel produced by MGUY Australia. He offers a critique of the electrification panacea push with a steady output of videos. He states there are 3 F's of EV buyers, fanboys, fleets and freeloaders. Fanboys are self explanatory. Fleets purchase EVs often due to regulatory pressure, or for a private business, investor pressure. Freeloaders or "freebies" are those who are able to purchase an EV because of government subsidies.

My suspicions were correct that this model would be an electric Track Hawk. Stellantis introduces the EV models first, because it's a jail house religion. In our current regulatory environment, offering a battery electric vehicle is the cost of doing business. Jeep can get away selling this as a limited edition model to the fanboys. They will also sell a few to the freeloaders. Thank you for your tax dollars, which makes it possible for someone who makes a lot more than you do, to purchase a vehicle you can't afford.

Another point is this, when the EV bubble burst the Wagoneer S was already set. it is too late for the quick addition of some sort of ICE option for this model. The Recon will probably be a different story with its later introduction. The next Cherokee will be EV or ICE, that is already known. Hopefully the models with IC engines won't weigh 5,500 lbs, like the battery electric ones.

It is surprising how KL Cherokee it is, shape wise

Pricing seems in line with most of what the company has - so the middle class is not the target audience for Stellantis in general. Even the lifted Italian clown car that Dodge is selling for ~50k is premium... as sales continue to slow down.
