A rear-swing gate houses a full-size spare tire, and the optional Sky One-Touch Power Top takes the open-air driving experience to the next level.
Inside, the Recon’s cabin is equipped with recycled materials and a new Capri non-leather synthetic trim. The dashboard includes a modular rail system, and storage options include a two-level centre console, 65.9 cubic feet (1,866 litres) of cargo capacity with rear seats folded, and a 3.0-cubic-foot (85-litre) frunk.

Features include Trails Offroad navigation for U.S. and Canadian paths, dynamic range mapping via TomTom, Amazon Alexa integration, and a new Jeep app for remote vehicle management.
The all-electric Recon is powered by front and rear 250-kilowatt (335 hp) electric drive modules, delivering a total output of 650 horsepower and 620 lb.-ft. of torque. Jeep estimates an all-electric range of up to 250 miles (400 kilometres), depending on trim, thanks to the standard 100-kWh battery. Acceleration from 0 to 60 mph (0-97 km/h) is estimated at 3.6 seconds

The Moab trim adds Rock mode-specific calibrations and a 15:1 final drive ratio on the rear EDM for enhanced torque delivery. Suspension is handled by a short-long arm system at the front and an integral link at the rear, providing 9.1 inches of ground clearance and favourable approach, departure, and breakover angles.
Underbody protection includes high-strength steel shielding to protect the battery. Additional off-road tools include an electronic locking differential, low-speed Selec-Speed Control, and a hill-hold function.
