Jeep Unveils 2026 Recon, Trail-Rated Electric SUV Priced at $65,000

Production begins early 2026 in Toluca, Mexico, with Supercharger access via NACS promised to start in 2026.

Overview

  • A dual-motor setup with a roughly 100 kWh battery is rated at about 650 horsepower and 620 lb-ft, with a 0–60 mph claim as quick as 3.6 seconds and an estimated range of up to 250 miles.
  • The first to launch is the Moab trim featuring 33-inch tires, a 15:1 rear final drive ratio, Rock mode, Selec-Speed control, and an electronic locking rear differential.
  • Jeep highlights open-air capability with removable doors plus rear-quarter and swing-gate glass, and fits a 12.3-inch driver display alongside a 14.5-inch Uconnect 5 touchscreen.
  • Independent reporting notes that off-road gearing and aggressive tires are likely to reduce real-world range below the quoted maximum, particularly on highway drives.
  • The Recon will debut in the US and Canada before broader rollout, and its 400-volt system supports DC fast charging from 5% to 80% in about 28 minutes with automatic front-axle disconnects to conserve energy on-road.
