2026 Jeep Recon: Electric Off-Roader Specs, Trims & What’s New
The 2026 Jeep Recon produces 650 hp and 620 lb-ft of torque from a dual-motor electric drivetrain with 230 miles of range. This is the first production year for the Recon, making every feature on it new rather than a revision of a prior model. This page covers trims, off-road capability, and tech specs.

What’s New for 2026
The 2026 Jeep Recon is an all-new nameplate, not a refresh or carryover. Jeep built it from the ground up as a fully electric midsize off-road SUV, and no prior-year version exists to compare it against. That means buyers in Boscobel, Richland Center, and Prairie Du Chien are looking at a vehicle with zero legacy compromises.
The headline number is 650 hp. Two permanent-magnet synchronous electric motors power all four wheels simultaneously through a full-time AWD system, with no traditional transfer case needed. The 100.5 kWh, 400V battery pack supports up to 230 miles of range on a charge.
EPA fuel economy and range data
The Recon also debuts the largest touchscreen ever placed in a Jeep Brand vehicle: a 14.5-inch Uconnect NAV display. Integrated off-road trail maps and a Selec-Terrain Traction Management System with dedicated Rock, Sand, Snow, Sport, and Auto modes position it as a purpose-built trail rig that also handles daily commutes and weekend highway runs across southwest Wisconsin.
Trim Lineup
The 2026 Jeep Recon launches in a single trim for its debut model year.
Moab
The Moab is the only trim available at launch, and Jeep has loaded it well rather than leaving meaningful features as paid upgrades. Standard equipment includes the 14.5-inch touchscreen, the 12.3-inch digital cluster, an 11-speaker Alpine Premium Audio System with a subwoofer, wireless Apple CarPlay, wireless Android Auto, a 360-degree camera system, heated steering wheel, regenerative braking, integrated trail maps, and the full Selec-Terrain suite.
Available options include the Sky One-Touch Power Top and a Digital Rearview Mirror. Ten exterior color choices are offered, including Red Hot, Hydro Blue, Copper Shino, and Fathom Blue, with Copper Shino and Fathom Blue arriving at late availability.
Performance & Powertrain
Two 250 kW permanent-magnet synchronous electric motors, one per axle, deliver power to all four wheels through a 1-speed automatic direct drive setup. There is no clutch, no gear hunting, and no delay between throttle input and wheel torque.
The combined output is 650 hp and 620 lb-ft of torque. That torque figure arrives instantly, which is particularly relevant for technical off-road use where precise wheel control matters more than peak horsepower.
The 100.5 kWh battery pack targets 230 miles of range. Fuel economy ratings come in at up to 91 MPGe city and up to 70 MPGe highway, with a combined figure that varies between approximately 71 and 80 MPGe depending on configuration.
Towing capacity is rated at 3,500 lbs, and payload reaches up to 850 lbs. Ground clearance measures 9.1 inches, which is the number that matters most to trail drivers navigating rocky terrain near the Mississippi River bluffs or heading out from Boscobel toward the Kickapoo Valley.
The 8-year, 100,000-mile EV battery warranty is the most significant ownership protection point in the powertrain package.
Interior, Comfort & Cargo
The Recon seats five across two rows. There is no third-row option, and the interior is designed around a two-row layout that prioritizes front and rear passenger comfort without sacrificing cargo flexibility.
Behind the second row, cargo volume measures 30.3 cu ft. Fold the rear seats flat and total cargo space reaches 65.9 cu ft, which is enough for a full weekend of gear for two people heading into the Kickapoo Valley or the Chequamegon-Nicolet country north of the store footprint.
Vehicle height is 74.4 inches, and overall length is 193.3 inches, putting the Recon in midsize SUV territory while maintaining a proportionally tall roofline that serves both headroom and approach-angle geometry.
The cabin includes a 115W outlet, a wireless charging pad, and four USB ports so passengers and drivers stay powered on longer trips. The heated steering wheel is standard, and the available Sky One-Touch Power Top brings an open-air option that connects the cabin to the outdoors without requiring any hardware to stow.
Technology & Infotainment
The 14.5-inch Uconnect NAV Touchscreen is the largest display Jeep has ever installed in one of its vehicles. It pairs with a 12.3-inch digital cluster display to create a wide, information-dense instrument panel that does not feel cluttered.
Wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto are both standard, removing the cable that most off-road owners prefer to avoid. The 11-speaker Alpine Premium Audio System includes a dedicated subwoofer for audio quality that holds up at highway speed with the windows down or the power top open.
Integrated Off-Road Trail Maps are built into the navigation system rather than offered as an app. For drivers using the Recon as an actual trail vehicle rather than a show truck, this is a practical convenience on remote routes where cell signal is unreliable.
The Selec-Terrain Traction Management System provides five modes: Auto, Sport, Sand, Snow, and Rock. Each mode adjusts motor torque delivery, regenerative braking behavior, and stability management thresholds to match surface conditions. The Regenerative Braking System also functions as a one-pedal driving option that extends range on highway returns to Richland Center or Prairie Du Chien.
The available Digital Rearview Mirror replaces the traditional mirror with a wide-angle camera feed, improving rear visibility when the vehicle is loaded with gear or towing.
Safety & Driver Assistance
The Recon’s standard safety suite covers a wide range of driving scenarios from parking lots to open highways to off-road trails.
Standard systems include:
- Rough Road Cruise Control, designed specifically for variable-surface terrain
- Pedestrian Emergency Braking
- Blind-Spot Monitoring
- Blind-Spot Warning with Rear Cross-Traffic Warning
- Front Cross-Traffic Alert
- Adaptive Cruise Control
- Driver Attention Warning
- 360-Degree Camera System
- Parking Sensors (front and rear)
- Fully Autonomous Parking System
The Rough Road Cruise Control feature is particularly notable for a vehicle positioned as an off-road platform. It maintains a set speed on uneven terrain by modulating individual motor torque rather than relying on conventional throttle inputs.
Who It’s For / vs the Prior Year
There is no prior-year Recon to benchmark against, so the relevant comparison is between the Recon and other electric off-road SUVs in the $65,000 to $75,000 range. The Recon targets buyers who want genuine trail capability (9.1-inch ground clearance, Rock terrain mode, integrated trail maps) without giving up the range or daily-driver practicality that a 230-mile battery and 91 MPGe city rating provide.
Buyers coming from a Jeep Wrangler will notice the move to a five-passenger enclosed body rather than an open-body platform. The Sky One-Touch Power Top preserves some of that open-air character. Buyers coming from a crossover EV will notice the step up in ground clearance, torque delivery, and terrain-specific technology.
For Wisconsin shoppers crossing the driftless terrain between Boscobel and Prairie Du Chien, the Recon’s combination of rural range and off-road competence is well-matched to the roads and trails in the region.
