One of two versions is EPA-rated at a combined miles of range; that was the one we drove. Only about 4, model-year versions were built, all with the high-spec Launch Edition trim. They may include both an offroad-focused Trailhawk model and less expensive versions,. Overall, we found the electric Wagoneer to be a competent, pleasant, relatively quick SUV.

The second is the polarizing Dodge Charger Daytona, the electric performance car with the audio-enhanced vroom-vroom noises. From the front, the traditional Jeep seven-slot grille has morphed into seven fins on a blanking plate with LED accent lights that illuminate the design. The side profile is adequately Jeepish, and it has the characteristic metal lettering spelling out the model name standing proud on the lower front doors.
The very steeply raked rear window is cleverly disguised by a large basket-handle roof spoiler whose vertical side supports give the Wagoneer S a square, SUV side profile.
You only see the massive gap between that raked rear glass and the spoiler from certain angles. But we saw nothing at the rear that definitely said Jeep. In fact, coming up to a black SUV ahead at a stoplight, we pegged it as either a Kia or the new Honda Prologueβuntil we realized it was another Wagoneer S. The Launch Editions feature a standard glass roof, all-black paint and trim above the beltline, and black alloy inch wheels. One small touch of butch was a starburst pattern on the matte black plastic that now seems to be supplanting the hackneyed shiny piano-black trim in car interiors.
Those displays include a The control and infotainment software worked fine, though it seemed slow to load once in a while.
