The 2024 Jeep Wagoneer S is the brand’s first electric vehicle for the U.S., but Jeep won’t rush it into showrooms if it is not ready, the brand’s boss said in an interview with Automotive News.

Jeep has said the Wagoneer S, which was revealed in May, will arrive in U.S. dealerships this fall. That will only happen if the electric SUV meets the standards of CEO Antonio Filosa.

“I want perfect quality, and I know that we are close, but close is not good enough,” Filosa told Automotive News. “Timing is important, but more important than that is to be perfect for the consumers that will give us the privilege to buy this car.”

Filosa said he had received word from the factory in Toluca, Mexico, that will build the Wagoneer S that “quality is increasing,” and did not confirm a delay. But he emphasized that the mandate for the Wagoneer S is “no launch if the quality isn’t perfect.”

Built on Stellantis’ STLA Large platform, the Wagoneer S is about the same size as the Jeep Grand Cherokee. It will launch with a dual-motor powertrain producing 600 hp and 617 lb-ft of torque, with a 0-60 mph time of 3.4 seconds. Jeep says the EPA range will top 300 miles, but that’s not official yet. So far Jeep as only detailed the Wagoneer S Launch Edition, which costs $71,995 with destination. Other versions will arrive for the 2025 model year.

The Wagoneer S will be joined by the Jeep Recon, which the automaker describes as a fully electric “brother” to the Wrangler, next year, with a new “electrified” midsize model that could replace the Cherokee arriving in 2026. Jeep has said that by 2025 it will offer “multi-energy options” across its whole lineup.
