2027 Jeep Recon EV Release Date Specs USA – The Jeep Recon is Jeep’s first fully electric, Trail Rated midsize SUV, designed as an off-road-focused alternative to the Wrangler with removable doors, open-air options, and serious capability. The launch model is the 2026 Recon Moab, already available to order and on sale in the United States and Canada as of mid-to-late 2026. The next trim, the more on-road-oriented Overland, is expected as a 2027 model year vehicle arriving early in 2027 (around January per recent reports).
Built on Stellantis’ STLA Large platform at the Toluca plant in Mexico, it targets US adventure drivers seeking electric power without sacrificing Jeep’s signature 4×4 identity. It competes with vehicles like the Rivian R2 while emphasizing trail performance over maximum highway range.
2027 Jeep Recon EV Release Date and Availability
The 2026 Recon Moab went on sale in the US and Canada starting around June–fall 2026, with orders open and initial deliveries underway or imminent by September 2026. Production began earlier in 2026.
The 2027 Overland trim is scheduled to arrive early next year (January 2027 in some reports), offering a less aggressive off-road setup with improved efficiency and range. Additional trims may follow. Global expansion (UK, Europe, and other markets) is planned after the North American launch. Limited early production volumes applied to the Moab.
US buyers can configure and order the Moab now via Jeep dealers or the official site. Check local inventory, as early units were limited.
2027 Jeep Recon EV Pricing in the USA
The 2026 Recon Moab starts at an MSRP of $65,000–$66,995 before the $1,995 destination charge, for a delivered starting price around $66,995–$68,990. This positions it as one of the higher-powered SUVs under $70,000.
Options such as the Doors-Off Kit (~$695) and Skye One-Touch power fabric top (~$1,995) add cost. Fully equipped examples can approach or exceed $75,000. Pricing for the 2027 Overland has not been fully detailed but is expected to be comparable, with differences mainly in wheels, tires, and features rather than a major price shift. No federal EV tax credit eligibility is noted due to Mexican assembly.
Powertrain, Performance, and Battery Specs
The Recon uses dual electric motors (one per axle) for full-time AWD, delivering a combined 670 horsepower (updated from an earlier 650 hp figure) and 620 lb-ft of torque. This enables a manufacturer-estimated 0–60 mph time of 3.6 seconds in Sport mode (around 3.8 seconds in Auto) and a top speed of 112 mph.
It draws power from a 100.5 kWh (total; ~93.9 kWh usable) 400-volt nickel-manganese-cobalt battery pack. EPA-estimated range is 222 miles for the Moab trim. The upcoming Overland is expected to reach about 240 miles thanks to different tires and gearing. Efficiency is rated around 80 MPGe combined (with city/highway figures in the 70–90 MPGe range depending on source). Curb weight is approximately 6,100–6,112 lbs.
Towing capacity is rated at 3,300 lbs. Regenerative braking helps recapture energy.
Charging Capabilities
DC fast charging (CCS, with NACS/Tesla Supercharger access expanding via partnerships) allows a 5–80% charge in about 28 minutes, or roughly 100 miles of range in around 10 minutes. Level 2 (240V) home charging takes approximately 6.8 hours for 5–80%. Level 1 is much slower (tens of hours).
Range mapping and efficiency displays assist trip planning on the large touchscreen.

Why the Jeep Recon EV Matters for US Drivers?
The Recon delivers Wrangler-inspired open-air and trail capability in a zero-emission package with strong acceleration. Its range is modest by current EV standards (especially on the highway or off-road), and the starting price is premium, but it stands out for Trail Rated status, removable body panels, and instant torque. The 2027 Overland should broaden appeal with better efficiency for daily driving.
