2026 Jeep Recon: Electric Trail Rated SUV Overview for Ontario
The 2026 Jeep Recon is an all-new, all-electric SUV and the first Jeep to earn a Trail Rated badge on battery power alone. It arrives in a single launch trim, the Moab, starting at $68,990 MSRP†, with 670 horsepower and an EPA-estimated 222 miles of combined range‡. Jeep notes that quantities are limited. Here’s a high-level look at what the Recon brings to drivers across Ontario, Corona, Norco, Claremont, Riverside and West Covina.

What’s New for the 2026 Jeep Recon
Everything. 2026 is the Recon’s first model year — a new nameplate, not a redesign. It is Jeep’s second fully electric vehicle after the Jeep Wagoneer S, and the first engineered from the start for off-road use, sharing the STLA Large platform with its sibling. The Moab is the only trim available for 2026; Jeep has announced a longer-range Overland trim but has not priced it or named an on-sale date, and additional versions are expected next year.

Performance, Range and Efficiency
Two Stellantis-designed electric drive modules, one at each axle and each rated at 250 kilowatts, combine for 670 horsepower and 620 lb-ft of torque with standard four-wheel drive and a single-speed reduction. Jeep quotes 0 to 60 mph in as little as 3.6 seconds, which makes the Recon the most powerful Jeep on sale and, by Jeep’s own measure, the only 670-horsepower SUV under $70,000 MSRP†.
Energy comes from a 100.5-kWh battery on a 400-volt architecture, EPA-rated at 222 miles combined‡. That figure reflects the trade-off of 33-inch all-terrain tires and a tall, boxy shape: in Car and Driver’s steady 75-mph highway test, the Moab covered 160 miles on a charge. Shoppers weighing the Recon against Jeep’s gas trail hardware can review the Jeep Wrangler’s off-road capabilities for comparison.

Exterior Design and Open-Air Features
The Recon keeps the Jeep features that define the brand. The doors come off, the rear-quarter glass comes out, and the swing gate glass lifts away — all without tools. A dual-pane sunroof is standard, the Sky One-Touch Power Top is available, and a full-size spare mounts to the swing gate. Jeep describes the Recon as the only fully electric utility vehicle designed with removable doors, removable rear-quarter glass and removable swing gate glass. Available exterior colors are ’41, Coppershino (late availability), Ceramic Gray, Red Hot, Silver Zynith, Hydro Blue, Bright White, Diamond Black and Joose, with a black or body-color roof. Buyers cross-shopping the gas original can compare it with the Jeep Wrangler.

Interior, Technology and Entertainment
Inside, a 14.5-inch Uconnect 5 NAV touchscreen anchors the cabin — Jeep calls it the largest touchscreen area ever fitted to a Jeep Brand vehicle — paired with a 12.3-inch digital cluster for more than 26 inches of combined screen space. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard, and so is an 11-speaker Alpine Premium Audio system with a subwoofer, mounted under the seats rather than in the doors so the sound survives a doors-off afternoon. Heated eight-way power front seats with memory and lumbar support come standard, and 270-degree ambient lighting offers 64 colors.
Driver-assist equipment is standard across the board, including Blind-Spot Monitoring with rear cross-path detection, pedestrian emergency braking, forward collision warning with active braking, adaptive cruise control with stop and go, Active Lane Management, Rough Road Cruise Control and a 360-degree surround view camera¶. Jeep counts over 170 standard safety and security features on the Recon.
¶ Driver-assist and safety systems are supplemental aids and are not a substitute for safe, attentive driving. Their effectiveness depends on weather, road, and traffic conditions and other factors. Always obey traffic laws and stay attentive to the road. See your owner’s manual for system details and limitations.
