Woah, the new Jeep Wagoneer S will do 0-62mph in 3.5s

The Jeep Wagoneer has returned, and this time, it’s… stupendously fast. The new Wagoneer S will go from 0-62mph in 3.5s which – in a world not too distant in the past – was the sole preserve of high-end, two-seater exotica.

Clearly this is not a two-seater exotica, but it is high-end. Jeep’s “premium” offering is of course a brand new electric SUV, and the first details explain how it’ll come with four-wheel-drive – or 4xe in Jeep’s nomenclature – and “all-terrain management”. Kerbs should be… manageable.

Elsewhere, there’s a 600bhp electric drivetrain of unspecified vintage, able to achieve that lightning 0-62mph time, and helped along by close attention to aerodynamics.

Though, while the sole image released thus far teases the BEV’s new face, it rather appears the Wagoneer S will bludgeon its way through the air rather than dance. Looks mean.

We’re told the Wagoneer S will be sold in the US from Spring 2024, and then “in key markets around the world from 2025”. More as we get it…
