Yahoo Autos Jeep's $25,000 EV will be the next-generation Renegade
During a Stellantis investor presentation, executives including the brand's CEO Antonio Filosa, provided a look at the future of Jeep through 2027. It includes new and updated models, and plenty of electrification, with products both at the high and low ends of the price range.
One of the big announcements was for a little vehicle: the next-generation Jeep Renegade. (Current model shown above.) The compact SUV will launch with a fully-electric variant, which Filosa said will start at under $25,000. He did not specify whether that price was including federal tax credits, and it's hard to call it one way or another. It would seem necessary to include credits if it's launching in the next few years, but the domestic production and material contents will be getting stricter to actually take advantage of credits.
But Renegade isn't the only new model on the way. The Jeep Compass is getting a new generation by 2027. And joining both these models will be the unnamed midsize SUV announced with the Wagoneer S reveal. While no name has been given, it will likely be the new Cherokee, or a Cherokee successor with a different name. And getting refreshes along the way will be the Wrangler, Gladiator, Grand Cherokee, Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer. And the whole lineup as of 2027 will include five PHEV variants, a range-extended model and six full EVs. Some of these will of course be variants of the same model, such as the Wrangler 4xe PHEV, the Wagoneer 4xe range-extender and the aforementioned Renegade EV.
