Review and specifications
2026 Jeep Recon
The electric Jeep Recon is designed to combine the Grand Cherokee’s civility with the Wrangler's off-road-ready capabilities, including the ability to open the top and remove the doors. It's powered by a 650-hp, dual motor set-up with full-time four-wheel drive. Jeep says that the SUV will go from 0-60 mph in 3.6 seconds in Sport mode. Despite its prodigious power, the Recon is rated to tow just 3,300 pounds. It has seating for five, and the back seats fold flat, creating a sizable cargo area. The Recon uses a 400-volt system with a 100.5-kWh battery. It debuts with the Moab trim with 33-inch tires and a 230-mile range. Future versions may see the range increase to 250 miles.

Brand context
About Jeep
<p>The storied Jeep brand, long synonymous with adventure and off-road capability, continues a steady drumbeat of new models. However, none currently meet our criteria to earn a recommendation. For example, the iconic Jeep Wrangler has poor fuel economy, wind noise, an uncomfortable interior, and reliability scores near the bottom of Consumer Reports’ rankings. Despite those results, the Wrangler has been popular for decades. Amid endless options of aerodynamic, compact SUVs, its boxy, military-inspired design makes it timeless and charming. The Wrangler’s rugged appeal benefits the rest of Jeep’s lineup of small, medium, and large SUVs. The brand has expanded into electrified vehicles with plug-in hybrids and new electric-only models, such as the Recon and Wagoneer S. Low reliability scores across the brand make it difficult to recommend buying a used Jeep.</p>
