Jeep has been flirting with electrification with their 4Xe models for years, but has finally gone all in with this 2024 Jeep Wagoneer S; and we’re just back from San Diego, where we got a chance to take a Quick Spin in the all-electric Wagoneer S Launch Edition which is available now.

Coming in about the size of the Grand Cherokee, the Wagoneer S shares a chassis with the Dodge Charger Daytona, and in similar fashion comes with standard all-wheel drive thanks to front- and rear-mounted electric motors. Here in the Jeep, they combine to whip up 600 horsepower and 617 lb-ft of torque, and power is managed through five different drive modes as part of Jeep’s Selec-Terrain. Current max rating is 303 miles of relaxed cruising.

“One of the first things I noticed while driving this Wagoneer S is just how comfortable it is. I mean, this suspension has luxury levels of comfort, and it’s just a passive suspension. It’s a pretty simple set up, but it works so well.”

It may ride better than most Jeeps, but it certainly looks genuine, seven-slot grille and all; though with perhaps much more attention paid to aerodynamics than any Jeep before it. Inside the five-passenger cabin, the vibe is highly similar to the big ICE Grand Wagoneer; premium leather-like materials, plenty of screen space, and even a jammin’ 1,200-watt McIntosh sound system.

This 2024 Jeep Wagoneer S Launch Edition stickers for about $72,000. But a recently announced Limited trim is on the way for $5,000 less.

And we’ll have more Quick Spins…soon!
