New Jeep Recon BEV at Leavens Chrysler
The Super Bowl is known for the big game, its showstopping performances and memorable commercials, but an unexpected addition to the lineup was the unveiling of the 2026 Jeep Recon BEV, which appeared alongside none other than the ultimate Hollywood adventurer: Harrison Ford. A unique member of the legendary Jeep line, the electric mid-size Recon reinvents the off-road game, borrowing the STLA Large EV platform used by the glamorous Wagoneer S to blaze new trails and push the electrified SUV scene to new heights. No official date or price have been revealed yet for this next-gen marvel of engineering, but Leavens Chrysler expect we’ll be seeing the Recon in stores sometime in late 2025. In the meantime, our team of Jeep enthusiasts is ready to give you the inside scoop on practically everything else, so keep reading to hear why you’ll want to get your pre-orders in as soon as they open.

Exterior
Refreshed and Reimagined
The 2026 Jeep Recon stands apart from its stablemates with brand new elements and unexpected returns to form, defying expectations with a return to red recovery hooks, a rear-mounted spare tire, shortened overhangs, squared fenders, and side-mounted electroluminescent diode headlights to strengthen its silhouette. It must truly be seen to be believed, so make sure you book a test drive at Leavens Chrysler to get the whole picture!
True to Form
Despite its unique profile, the 2026 Recon BEV maintains Jeep’s iconic DNA at its core. Enthusiasts will instantly note its open-air qualities like removable doors and roof panels, as well as its modernized, backlit take on Jeep’s signature seven-slot grille, blending the old and the new to create a bolder, more robust figure with improved airflow and enhanced rigidity.
Interior
Durable by Design
The name ‘Jeep’ conjures images of off-road readiness and refinement, and the 2026 Recon doesn’t disappoint in holding true to both. By using rubber-like textures, resilient fabrics, and stitching resistant to dust, moisture, staining, and airborne debris, the Recon creates a premium-yet-practical interior that feels special without the need for careful handling or treatment.
No Wasted Space
Adaptability is a key element of the 2026 Jeep Recon, from its performance to its design. Seats can be folded down to expand your cargo space and simplify loading, and further storage includes under-floor compartments, a configurable rear shelf, and tie-down rails to keep everything secure. Additionally, an innovative front trunk expands your storage even further, topping off the Recon’s clever use of practical space.
Technology
Chart Your Course
Every good adventurer knows to be prepared, and that the right tool can make all the difference. The 2026 Jeep Recon doesn’t just let you plan a route like any old Sat Nav; its specialized onboard navigation system helps you plot your route based on your current elevation profile, and estimates your range and energy consumption based on the expected difficulty of your terrain.
One Step Ahead of Obstacles
Rugged terrain can take its toll on your vehicle’s underbody, with jagged rocks and sudden drops threatening damage to your fuel tank, exhaust system, and more. The 2026 Jeep Recon helps you expect and avoid such risks with its brand new multiangle TrailCam system, which projects a multi-angle live feed of the road and oncoming obstacles, paired with helpful overlays to advise you based on factors like your current ride height and terrain inclination.
Performance
The Trail Rated EV You Can Trust
Bred for the off-road, the 2026 Jeep Recon comes with a determined disposition, Selec-Terrain adaptability, independent suspension, all-terrain tires made to crawl over uneven and rugged terrain, and a towering ground clearance to sail over obstacles and debris. It’s no wonder, then, that the 2026 Recon has secured its Trail Rated badge, guaranteeing that it can stand up to even your most adrenaline-jumping adventures.
Built On Familiar Foundations
Drawing from the high-powered achievements of the 2025 Wagoneer S, Jeep returns to its STLA Large EV platform with the 2026 Jeep Recon BEV and introduces customizable modular architecture. Though no specs have been confirmed as yet, we expect the Recon to feature a dual-motor powertrain, resilient 4×4 capability, and either 400- or 800-Volt architecture. Watch this space!
