2025 Jeep Recon styling
The 2025 Jeep Recon strikes a styling balance between rugged off-roader and EV without sliding all the way into Wrangler territory. It sports an illuminated version of the brand’s trademark seven-slot grille along with similarly styled U-shaped daytime running lights. A boxy, rugged appearance makes a first impression, while subtle blue accents on the tow hooks and badging hint at its electric underpinnings.
Although it’s not intended to be an electric replacement for the Wrangler, the 2025 Jeep Recon comes with many of the same outdoor-oriented features. The doors can be removed, the rear quarter windows and back glass can open, and a one-touch sliding roof creates an open-air feel.
2025 Jeep Recon interior design and practicality
As of this writing, no interior preview of the 2025 Jeep Recon is available. We doubt Jeep would choose the Recon for launching anything revolutionary, though—the brand will likely save its best for the all-electric Wrangler, which is rumoured for a 2027 release. Instead, we think the Recon will be reminiscent of the modern-day Wrangler, including the 12.3-inch infotainment screen running the Uconnect operating system along with washable materials and mesh inserts.
2025 Jeep Recon engines, motors and drive
Rather than being based on a body-on-frame setup, the 2025 Jeep Recon shares the SLTA Large platform with the new electric muscle car family from Dodge. This means a few things: it’s not intended to be a Wrangler replacement, and it should have better on-road manners than the brand’s most rugged offerings. Jeep representatives have stated, though, that the Recon will be available with a Trail Rated badge.
We expect, at minimum, a two-motor setup for all-wheel drive. Jeep has stated the Recon will come with e-lockers, which means it’s likely there will be three or four motors to give this off-road focused Jeep individual wheel control. Jeep’s Selec-Terrain traction control system, all-terrain tires, underbody protection, and tow hooks are all expected to be on the option sheets.
No specifics on the 2025 Jeep Recon’s powertrain have been forthcoming as of this writing. We do know Jeep has hinted to being flexible regarding what goes under the Recon’s hood, so it’s possible there could be a plug-in hybrid version offered alongside the confirmed fully electric model. However, this detail has also not yet been confirmed.
2025 Jeep Recon price and release date
Jeep representatives have stated that the 2025 Jeep Recon will launch sometime toward the end of 2024. No official hints have been given on pricing as of this writing, though we expect Jeep Canada will feel pressure to offer a stripped-down model priced at less than $60,000 to allow some of the Recon line-up to qualify for federal and provincial EV purchase incentive programs. Even still, the most capable models are likely to be priced beyond existing rebate thresholds and could climb well past the $80,000 range.
