Jeep Adds Electric SUVs to Lineup: Wagoneer S Trailhawk Concept and 2024 Launch Edition
Jeep has recently unveiled two groundbreaking additions to their lineup, the Jeep Wagoneer S Trailhawk concept, and the 2024 Jeep Wagoneer S Launch Edition. These fully electric vehicles signal a major milestone in Jeep’s quest for electrification, all while staying true to the brand’s renowned capability and design.
The Jeep Wagoneer S Trailhawk concept showcases the perfect blend of electric power and Jeep’s off-road legacy. Constructed on the STLA large platform, this concept car promises a smooth transition from city streets to rugged terrains. Antonio Filosa, CEO of Jeep, highlighted the vehicle’s heritage and its advanced features, stating,
“The launch of the all-electric Jeep Wagoneer S marks a new chapter in the storied history of the Jeep brand. Building upon nearly a century of innovation and design, this first global EV will introduce a whole new generation of owners to an experience that is distinctly Jeep and 100% electric in every way. With new energy in the Jeep vehicle lineup, ranging from EV to V-8, customers have never had more freedom to choose their own adventure.”
As a fully electric SUV, the Wagoneer S Trailhawk concept delivers instant torque and boasts an enhanced Selec-Terrain system with various modes for different terrains. Equipped with a 4-wheel drive system and 31.5-inch all-terrain tires, this vehicle is prepared for any expedition.
The Trailhawk concept stands out with its rugged design, lifted suspension, and practical features like heavy-duty tow hooks and air extractors. The front-end design, featuring the iconic seven-slot illuminated grille with Storm Gray metallic accents, reflects its off-road prowess. The Banner exterior color and details like the anti-glare hood decal and laser-cut aluminum roof rack enhance its adventurous appeal.
Inside, the Wagoneer S Trailhawk concept is tailored for off-road enthusiasts. The interior boasts soft surfaces wrapped in Mantis Green synthetic material, accented with real stone veneer inspired by meteorites. The redesigned octagonal steering wheel provides a tactical grip for precise control, while the seating merges sportiness and luxury with heated and ventilated seats wrapped in Mantis Green with Ultraviolet accent stitching.
Alongside the Trailhawk concept, Jeep introduced the 2024 Wagoneer S Launch Edition, their first global battery-electric vehicle (BEV). Initially available in the US and Canada, this vehicle boasts impressive performance with 600 horsepower, over 800 newton-meters of torque, and accelerates from 0-60 mph in just 3.4 seconds. It also offers a range of over 300 miles on a single charge.
The Wagoneer S Launch Edition features Jeep’s exclusive Selec-Terrain traction management system with five distinct drive modes. Its aerodynamic design is complemented by a reimagined seven-slot illuminated grille, 20-inch wheels, and a dual-pane panoramic sunroof. Inside, the vehicle provides 45 inches of usable screen space, an interactive front passenger screen, and a premium 19-speaker McIntosh audio system.
The Wagoneer S will be available in Jeep brand dealerships across the US in the second half of 2024, with plans for global expansion.
