The Jeep Recon Moab EV goes full beast mode in black as it drops camo [Images]
Jeep’s new electric SUV looks pretty sweet in a blacked-out Moab edition. The Jeep Recon Moab EV was spotted with hardly any camo, sporting black paint, wheels, tint, and some serious off-road upgrades.

The Recon is expected to make its official debut later this year, but we are already getting a look at the new Moab trim.
Although it won’t replace the Wrangler, Jeep said the Recon takes inspiration from the legendary off-roader and will even pull a few fan favorites, like optional doors and windows.
The Recon is Jeep’s third electric SUV, following the Avenger and Wagoneer S, promising to be the brand’s first true off-road EV.
We have a good idea of what the Recon will look like when it arrives, after several prototypes have been caught in public testing. The closer it gets to production form, the more and more it looks like a Ford Bronco, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing.
A new sighting, from the folks at Jeep Recon Forum, offers a closer look at the Recon Moab trim, all blacked out.
It looks about the same, maybe a little refined, compared to the first Moab model we saw, which leaked out of a dealer event in Las Vegas way back in March 2023.
You can also see a good size comparison to the Chevy Equinox sitting next to it. Jeep’s SUV is clearly taller with a more upright stance.
Jeep already took a shot at Ford during the Super Bowl earlier this year, recruiting Harrison Ford for a commercial where the Recon races past the Bronco on an off-road trail. Harrison joked at the end, “This Jeep makes me happy, even though my name is Ford.”
The Recon is set to make an official debut later this year and will go on sale as a 2026 model year. Jeep has kept most details secret, but promised it will be able to tackle the Rubicon Trail with enough charge to get back to town and recharge.
Like the Wagoneer S, the Recon will be based on the STLA Large platform, which should provide at least 300 miles of driving range.
The Moab will be one of several trim options, which will likely include at least a Willys and Overland version as well.
We will learn prices closer to launch, but the Jeep Recon EV is expected to start at around $60,000. The Moab and other trims could cost upwards of $80,000 or more, similar to the Wrangler.
