- Jeep opened US orders for the 2026 Recon EV at $66,995, offering only the Moab range-topping trim at launch.
- The Recon Moab earned an EPA-estimated 222-mile range, falling short of Stellantis' earlier 230-mile Moab forecast and the 250-mile target for lower trims.
- Built on Stellantis' STLA Large platform with dual-motor AWD, the Recon delivers 650 hp, 620 lb-ft of torque, and a 0–60 mph time of 3.6 seconds.
- Jeep markets the Recon as the "first and only fully electric Trail Rated SUV," featuring removable doors, rear quarter glass, and a swing-gate glass panel.
- The Moab trim adds a new Rock drive mode, 33-inch tires, 9.1 inches of ground clearance, and an upgraded rear electric drive module with a 15:1 final drive ratio.
- Jeep says the Recon can charge from 5% to 80% in about 28 minutes, or add roughly 100 miles of range in roughly 10 minutes.
- The Recon Moab carries a Canadian price of CAD 88,285, with launches planned for the UK, Europe, and other global markets.
Why it matters: At $66,995 with 222 miles of range — below the 250 miles Stellantis originally floated — the Recon undercuts its own value proposition before reaching showrooms. Jeep's claim as the only fully electric Trail Rated SUV gives it a category-of-one marketing edge, but lower-priced rivals like the Rivian R2 and Hyundai IONIQ 5 XRT could pull buyers who don't need the Moab's dedicated off-road hardware.
