"Whatever you wan to call it, it features a 174-horsepower 3.6-liter V6, which acts solely as a generator to recharge the battery. It's not connected to the wheels, which are instead powered by electric motors to the tune of 647 hp and 620 lb-ft of torque. This allows the Wagoneer EREV to accelerate from a standstill to sixty in five seconds, making it the quickest variant in the lineup."
"The 92-kilowatt-hour liquid-cooled battery pack is quite big by EREV standards. Looking at a similar-sized extended-range SUV from China, the Lynk & Co 900, which only has around 52 kWh of battery capacity, which gives it a claimed electric-only range of 174 miles on the optimistic Chinese test cycle. Since it's not available outside China, the 900 doesn't get a WLTP or EPA range rating, but its real-world electric range is likely closer to 110-120 miles."
"The Jeep Grand Wagoneer refresh gets an unexpected electrified powertrain option. The Grand Wagoneer EREV powertrain has the exact same specs as the Ramcharger, but is a bit slower to accelerate. Jeep hasn't said what its electric range is or when the EREV variant will be available for order. Jeep will beat Scout Motors to the punch in launching America's first extended-range electric vehicle with its upcoming Grand Wagoneer range extender."
Jeep offers an extended-range electric vehicle (EREV) option for the Grand Wagoneer using a 174-horsepower 3.6-liter V6 that functions solely as a generator and is not connected to the wheels. Electric propulsion comes from motors producing 647 hp and 620 lb-ft of torque, enabling 0-60 mph in five seconds. The system uses a 92-kilowatt-hour liquid-cooled battery pack and likely increases vehicle weight above 6,000 lbs due to the larger battery and heavier V6 generator. Jeep has not released the electric-only range or order availability. The EREV shares specs with the Ramcharger but accelerates slightly slower.
