By Jeff Gibbs
Jeep enthusiasts Down Under are in for a treat as leaked images of the upcoming 2024 Wagoneer S, set to hit Australian shores in 2025, have surfaced online. Contrary to the usual clandestine nature of leaks, these images were inadvertently shared by Jeep’s own social media team in a short-lived Facebook video.
The leaked images provide a comprehensive view of the production Wagoneer S, showcasing its distinctive two-tone silver and black paintwork, full-width light bar, and a uniquely designed roof spoiler. These revelations come hot on the heels of Jeep’s recent teaser image, offering a sneak peek into the brand’s foray into the electric SUV domain.

Jeep’s teaser confirmed that the Wagoneer S will boast an illuminated version of the iconic seven-slot front grille and an impressive power output of up to 450kW. This powerhouse of an electric SUV is expected to accelerate from 0-98km/h (60mph) in a mere 3.5 seconds, aligning it with performance standards seen in the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk.
Bucking the trend of larger Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer models in the American market, the Wagoneer S will be classified as a ‘mid-size model,’ positioning it against competitors like the BMW X5, Range Rover Sport, Volkswagen Touareg, Mazda CX-60, and CX-90, as well as the Kia EV9 in the electric family SUV segment.
While the leaked images suggest a remarkable resemblance to the 2022 concept version, specific details about the Wagoneer S’s battery size and recharging speeds are yet to be confirmed by Jeep. The brand, however, promises an electric range of approximately 400 miles or 640km.
Production of the Jeep Grand Wagoneer S is slated to commence in the United States later this year, with European and other global markets anticipating deliveries in 2025. Jeep’s foray into the electric vehicle realm is poised to make a significant impact, marrying performance with sustainability in the iconic Wagoneer series.
