Electric Jeep Wagoneer S coming to Holland?

Electric Jeep Wagoneer S coming to Holland?


Wrangler is a common success, but big Jeeps are not seen here. That probably has something to do with European regulations and thirsty combustion engines in American SUVs. But the Jeep Wagoneer S you see above will be perfect for the Netherlands. It is electric and therefore has no problem with strict regulations regarding CO2 emissions. Parking will be a problem in the narrow spaces of the Netherlands. Not to mention the road tax, if soon applied to EVs.

Jeep will release the electric Wagoneer in the US in the summer of this year. Later it will be the turn of ‘other key markets’. Are we also a part of that? Jeep tells Top Gear Netherlands that the brand cannot confirm or deny the arrival of the Wagoneer S. We strongly suspect that it will come to the Netherlands.

It is on the STLA-Big platform and gets 600 hp of power. This is good for a 0-100 time of 3.5 seconds. And just look at him. There are many sharp lines on the side that meet at the back. We like the combination of the roof spoiler, the light that pops up above the nameplate and the bar above the taillight.

The cabin is also attractive. What is immediately apparent is that the dashboard largely consists of a screen that is divided into four sections: the driver’s display, a two-part center screen and an entertainment section for the co-driver. Below the central screen you will find a separate screen where you can adjust the direction of the vents.

A little lower you will see the gear lever. Stellantis also shows closeness to this. Below the dial, the car brand shows the different driving modes: Sport, Auto, Eco, Snow and Sand. The buttons on the steering wheel seem to be physical, but otherwise you are forced to use touch buttons. In addition, it will include a 19-piece speaker set from McIntosh and the panoramic roof has two panels as standard. More information about the electric Jeep Wagoneer S will come later.
