Jeep veep says 'good chance' electric Wrangler is coming in 2023
Fox News
Jeep is launching an all-electric model by 2023, but hasn't confirmed what it will be. However, Jeep VP Jim Morrison said it 'could' end up being a Wrangler.
Signs point to it being a small model sharing a platform with one of the EVs parent company Stellantis will have launched by then through Citroen, Peugeot and Fiat, but something even more on-brand could be in the works. At this year's Moab Easter Jeep Safari, the brand rolled out an all-electric Wrangler concept it called the Magneto. Rather than a purpose-built electric, it swapped out its internal combustion engine for an electric motor connected to its conventional 4x4 drivetrain, offering a relatively easy zero-emissions solution for the model in the short term. During an appearance on The Fox Garage, Jeep's VP in charge of North American operations, Jim Morrison, was asked if the 2023 EV would be a unibody model or a Wrangler and his answer left the door wide open.More Related News
