2024 Jeep Wagoneer S First Impression // A VALUE Among Luxury Vehicles That Happens to be Electric

[@georgehummel621]

Just ordered mine today. getting it in the white with black top, and red interior. Should have it by the end of the year very very excited!!!!!!

[@GTGarageTalk]

How very exciting.

[@davecchi]

I put my name down a few months back but haven't heard anything yet. Dealer was not aware of any news three weeks ago.

[@parkerhubs]

Ordered mine on june 8th. still shows being built since september 21st. long delays in production. Cannot wait to get mine ordered the white/black with black interior.

[@nas8938]

Lucky !

[@terrystevens1771]

Will definitely be buying one when they hit Australia in 2026

[@AaronLBrown-nv9bu]

First off I’m sick and tired of all these EV vehicles only able to give me 300 miles in range. I don’t care about the HP I want more range, like 500 to 600 miles

[@GTGarageTalk]

Silverado EV may be your best bet currently

[@philipwood8776]

most people drive under 30 miles a day....No need for more range

[@harlengineering6589]

You’re gonna need 2 1/2 times the amount of battery for the 300 range just to offset the weight you’re gonna add from a bigger battery plus they’ll be less cargo room because that battery has to be put somewhere and the next thing you know you have an 8000 pound vehicle just so you don’t have to stop for 25 minutes to charge sounds kind of stupid. You should probably just stick with gas at this point.

[@YoungDen]

For the price will be looking at the Lucid Gravity. 400 mi range would have been considerable

[@sultan221985]

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@Brianf1977]

sorry to disappoint you but the range is more like 250-260, i work for stellantis and one of our bosses has one

[@GTGarageTalk]

That’s valuable news.

[@HokieD1993]

Crud. How about the Recon?

[@stevewickens102]

This is great. But more importantly a hopeful precursor to what we see in the following year…a range extender version with a ccs plug and bi-directional charging. Add Level 2+ (software upgradable to level3) self driving and then you’ve got the coolest sleekest vehicle anywhere with zero range anxiety. Also fun fact, this is about 2 inches longer than my 2013 Grand Cherokee so awesome size imo. ❤

[@Andre30006]

Y don’t the back seats recline!😮

[@cognetic]

What makes you think they don’t recline? I assume they will recline like my grand Cherokee does. This reviewer did not cover this. So it could go either way. But I would be shocked if it doesn’t. For me, reclining is critical. As I need the back seats to touch the privacy cover, in the back trunk area ( vs a gap in between, exposing items in the trunk area).

[@stevewickens102]

They recline

[@TheHk1966]

Seems like a production version of the Lincoln North Star concept essentially from the side profile

[@rlstrad2059]

Nice SUV, wonder how it will compete against products like the Lyric

[@GTGarageTalk]

Time will tell. From what I see, I personally like it better.

[@lot2196]

Um... they can't get electrical issue correct on their normal vehicles.

[@cognetic]

Hopefully they will offer maxcare lifetime warranty again. If so, it would take my anxiety of getting it correct out the gate, etc. Especially if it’s the traditioanl zero or low repair deductible, and with free rental coverage, etc.

[@x2for10x]

LoL facts ...

[@mikesg72]

You ain't lying. Friend of mine has the 2024 Wagoneer and the battery has been replaced 8 times in 12 months and the first time was less than a week after driving it off the lot. It has been in the shop for 13 weeks, on and off in a single year. Lawsuit incoming.

[@pithello]

Shocked its not a NACS port.

[@GTGarageTalk]

They were late to jump on the NACS acceptance.

[@Paul-Hill-3461]

this should be the next Grand Cherokee. it's smaller than the current Grand Cherokee 4xe but with an extended range and more power, which would be an improvement. The next Wagoneer should be bigger than any Grand Cherokee but not as big as the current Wagoneer. Just make this thing ng bigger and get rid of the shiny black plastic, with a matte finish instead, and then I will buy one of those

[@ericgeier8611]

You made a reference to leather seats. I believe the seats are synthetic.

[@GTGarageTalk]

You are correct; "Leatherette" is the term they use. I guess I did not catch that when editing. My apologies. I normally try and get small misspeaks like that.

[@TheHk1966]

Vegan leather anyone?

[@nas8938]

I heard that these are very fast

[@jonathanantoine3935]

The should of just called it the Cherokee s instead of disconnecting it

[@ironmonkey720]

Looks like a great value, but that 300 range is tough.

[@GTGarageTalk]

It’s inline with the Kia EV9

[@ironmonkey720]

@@GTGarageTalk yeah for sure. I think 400 is the number to convert a lot of people though. We're close!

[@GTGarageTalk]

I agree. I’ve held that 300 miles at 80% charge is the perfect spot for Texas.

[@trustandbelieve9173]

@@GTGarageTalkwhen is the official release date?

[@franktank9573]

After owning a track hawk and currently my 2nd tesla as well has a hellcat Durango no way I’d buy this. Wouldn’t ever trust stellantis to get it right/reliable especially on their 1st try. No ncas plug? Everyone else is going ncas, Tesla super chargers are everywhere.

[@GTGarageTalk]

Will be NACS eventually. Maybe the 2025 model

[@Greg_In_SoCal]

@@GTGarageTalk Any chance the 2024 production models arrive with NACS?

[@GTGarageTalk]

I do not believe the first models have any chance of it. NACS will be a process and Stellantis was the last major automaker to commit to the switch. Hyundai is just now rolling out its first NACS vehicles.

[@AaronLBrown-nv9bu]

First off I wouldn’t get this vehicle, they weren’t smart enough to at least place a battery higher than 400kW, this behinds the 800kw battery not 400🙄

[@AaronLBrown-nv9bu]

Well that’s your opinion and I drive more then that in one hour

[@GTGarageTalk]

👍🏼
