Jeep is holding a 4xe Day on September 8th and it appears the company is teasing a new EV or two.
Shown briefly in a short teaser video, which prominently features 4xe versions of the Grand Cherokee and Wrangler, one of the mystery models features a seven-slot grille with illuminated surrounds.
While the company is staying tight-lipped, the model doesn’t appear to be the Jeepster EV that was spied undisguised earlier this year. This is quickly apparent as the model in the teaser video has a forward facing camera as well as more squared off slots with illuminated accents.
The video also shows the rear end of a mysterious SUV, which looks like a Wrangler 4xe at first glance. However, a closer inspection reveals different taillights and a more minimalist tailgate handle. It’s unclear what the model is, but it does have some similarities to the EV that was teased last year.
That particular EV is slated to ride on the STLA Large platform and feature a boxy design. At the time, Ralph Gilles described it as a “very capable Jeep off-roading white space opportunity vehicle.”
While a number of questions remain, it appears Jeep’s 4xe Day will be jam-packed with announcements.
