Jeep has been teasing its ‘global’ electric SUV for some time now, but recently ramped up excitement levels by revealing images of a production-ready model (see gallery below) and the news that it will go on sale in the US and Canada later this year with a starting price of $71,995 (around £56,500 / AU$108,500) for the Launch Edition.
Set to boast a hefty 592bhp from its twin motor set-up and giant 100.5kWh battery pack (Jeep will also offer smaller 85kWh options), the big SUV is slated to smash the 0-60mph sprint in just 3.4 seconds and can manage a maximum range of up to 500 miles on a single charge in select future variants.
