Photos of the upcoming electric Jeep Wagoneer accidentally revealed

The person in charge of Jeep’s social media accounts made a mistake by accidentally posting photos of the first electric vehicle for North America. They were removed shortly after, but someone acted quickly and downloaded the images before disappearing from Facebook.

Mopar Insiders was able to obtain these photos of the Wagoneer S from one of their readers, showing the electric SUV in its production version. It appears to be identical to the 2022 concept of the same name, and dare we say it strongly evokes a Range Rover Velar vibe.

Jeep intends to sell the Wagoneer S exclusively as an electric vehicle, with a release planned for this fall. It will not be exclusive to North America, as other markets will have this fifth variant of the Wagoneer. In our market, it will be alongside the gas-powered Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer, both of which are offered with an optional longer wheelbase.

The 2025 Wagoneer S will come with all-wheel drive as standard, meaning it will have a pair of electric motors. With a confirmed combined power of 600 horsepower and what can be assumed to be substantial amounts of instant torque, the silent SUV will reach 0-60 mph in just 3.7 seconds.

A few days ago, Jeep’s parent company, Stellantis, revealed full details of its new STLA Large platform. Logic tells us that the Wagoneer S will use this architecture, especially since the automotive conglomerate claims that the first models will be launched in 2024. In fact, it explicitly states that Jeep and Dodge will lead the way, and these initial models will be launched in North America first. Eight EVs across five brands are planned for the market by 2026.

The STLA Large platform has been designed in 400 and 800-volt configurations with battery packs ranging from 85 to 118 kWh. Sedans will offer up to 500 miles of range, but with SUVs inherently being heavier, efficiency is likely to be lower in the case of the Wagoneer S. Vehicles based on this platform will have lengths ranging from 4764 to 5126 millimeters, widths ranging from 1897 to 2030 mm, and wheelbases ranging from 2870 to 3075 mm.

Expect the Jeep electric SUV to become even faster, as Stellantis promises improved “propulsion system performance” updates via over-the-air updates. Although the Wagoneer S is exclusively electric, the STLA Large platform for D and E segment models will support combustion engines and hybrid powertrains.
