New Jeep Wagoneer S to Be Manufactured in Mexico
The new electric SUV from Jeep is set to hit the market with a bang, offering impressive performance capabilities that will leave its competitors in the dust. The Jeep Wagoneer S is primed to be the brand’s first dedicated battery-electric vehicle (BEV) for the U.S. and Canadian markets.
Featuring a powerful electric powertrain that can produce 600 horsepower and 617 lb-ft (836 Nm) of torque, the Wagoneer S boasts acceleration that can take it from 0 to 60 mph in a lightning-fast 3.4 seconds. This performance even surpasses that of the iconic Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk, showcasing the SUV’s capabilities in the electric segment.
Scheduled for an official unveiling on May 30th, the Wagoneer S will ride on the STLA Large platform, which is shared with other vehicles in the Stellantis family, such as Dodge Charger and Alfa Romeo.
One of the highlights of the Wagoneer S is its impressive range, with a battery pack that enables the SUV to travel over 300 miles (483 km) on a single charge, outpacing competitors in its class. The SUV will also offer a range of high-tech features, including a digital instrument cluster, a dedicated display for front-seat passengers, a panoramic sunroof, and a premium McIntosh audio system.
The manufacturing location for the Wagoneer S will be at Stellantis’ Toluca Assembly Plant in Mexico, a key production site that also manufactures the Jeep Compass. While further production details are expected to be announced at the launch event, this move marks a significant step for Jeep into the electric vehicle market.
With a blend of powerful performance, innovative technology, and rugged capabilities, the Jeep Wagoneer S is poised to make a mark in the EV segment and capture the attention of consumers worldwide.
