FIRST LOOK: 2024 Jeep® Wagoneer S Launch Edition

Our Best Look Yet, At The All-New, All-Electric Wagoneer S...

The all-new, all-electric 2024 Jeep® Wagoneer S made its first public appearance last weekend at the PGA Tour’s Rocket Mortgage Classic in Detroit. This marked a significant moment for Jeep, as the Wagoneer S is the brand’s first global all-electric SUV and the first time the Wagoneer nameplate has been used on a midsize SUV since 1990. Prior to this event, the Wagoneer S was unveiled privately in New York City to a select group, including some social media personalities.

A New Era for Jeep® –

The Wagoneer S, along with the Grand Wagoneer and Grand Cherokee, was on display for attendees at the Rocket Mortgage Classic. Kevin M. Tourneur provided us our  best look yet at this newest member of the Jeep family. The Wagoneer S is exclusively a battery electric vehicle (BEV) with a range of over 300 miles on a single charge. It boasts 600 horsepower, an impressive 0-60 mph time of 3.4 seconds, and 617 lb-ft of instant torque.

We are told, in addition to the BEV model, Stellantis is exploring the possibility of introducing a hybrid electric (HEV) powertrain for a future Wagoneer S offering. This hybrid option would provide customers with even more flexibility and choice in their vehicle’s powertrain, catering to a wider range of driving needs and preferences. However, Jeep has yet to officially announce anything.

Performance and Features –

Equipped with Jeep’s exclusive Selec-Terrain™ traction management system, the Wagoneer S ensures confident driving in all weather and road conditions. The vehicle features a 400-volt, 100 kWh battery pack that can charge from 20% to 80% in just 23 minutes using a DC fast charger. Each Wagoneer S Launch Edition comes with a 48-amp Level 2 home charger or public charging credits through Free2move Charge, Stellantis’ comprehensive charging ecosystem.

Design and Technology –

Built on the flexible STLA Large platform, the Wagoneer S combines performance with luxury. The all-electric four-wheel drive system provides excellent on-road and off-road dynamics, while the aerodynamic design, including a reimagined seven-slot grille, sleek proportions, and advanced lighting, sets a new standard for Jeep. The interior features more than 45 inches of screen space, a segment-exclusive 10.25-inch front passenger display, and a 19-speaker McIntosh sound system, creating a luxurious and tech-savvy driving experience.

Optional Features and Pricing –

This fully-loaded Wagoneer S Launch Edition shown here, includes the optional Radar Red interior color for an additional $1,000, adding a bold and stylish touch to the already luxurious cabin. The Launch Edition will be available in Jeep brand EV-certified dealerships starting in the second half of 2024, with a starting U.S. MSRP of $71,995, including destination charges. The vehicle qualifies for the Inflation Reduction Act Retail and Lease EV credits.

Like the idea of a midsize Wagoneer and the exclusivity of the Wagoneer as an upscale Jeep. Don’t like the all electric power train, a sure losing strategy.
Not impressed with exterior styling, another bland offering from Jeep. Seems their design studio is stuck in a flat side panel uninspiring mindset. Hybrid option would help. A more stylish and bold Cherokee spin off might recoup developmental costs for the S. Let’s hope the Jeep stylists get something interesting for this segment with the Cherokee or things will continue to slide at Jeep. Recon could disappoint also with an all electric strategy. Concerned.

The headlining statement in this article is that Stellantis is "considering" using a hybrid powertrain option. If this is going on the STLA large platform a 2.0L 4Xe hybrid should be the base engine and the two Hurricane engines should be what actually powers this thing with the EV option as a low-production limited edition option, something that won't really be taken seriously so that when it doesn't sell (because it won't) stellantis won't experience a huge loss. This should get an SRT Version with a Hurricane HO hybrid pushing over 760hp, same as everything else on the STLA Large platform and every single STLA Large Platform vehicle needs Direct Connection Stage 1 & 2 packages for their ICE and hybrid variants. Keep that full electric nonsense for Europe and everywhere else. We, the people dont want that! Nothing wrong with the designs, just the electric powertrains.

You don't rep CARB states....every year we get close to 2035... and the Northeast is Jeep's biggest area of sales.

This model isn't design for massive sales.

I purchased my Wagoneer S2 despite its numerous trips to the service department I'll buy another because of its size and seating and comfort. I currently get 580 miles to a tank on the highway and if EV with a range of 300 miles is my only option for another Wagoneer, I'll be looking at other models for our next vehicle

What seems to be emerging is a common general opinion that the Wagoneer S has some strong points on size, luxury appointments and the Wagoneer sub brand appeal working for it, but the power train limitation is a no go for many. Sadly it seems Jeep, Chrysler and Dodge are beating a dead horse and investing valuable dollars that could have been spent on better electronics that have proven unreliable instead of, let’s say, electric airplanes.
One might think this is a science fiction movie playing out in a fantasy world conceived by the deranged. Sadly this movie is real and Stellantis is in the director.’s chair and it’s a film production that no one is going to the box office to pay to watch. Lights, camera,....cut!
