Arrival of electric Wagoneer S and Recon will mean shake-up to American firm's line-up

Jeep will take the Grand Cherokee off sale in Europe this year, with the Wrangler potentially also in the firing line. The moves come as Jeep continues its push of new electric vehicles, with the all-electric Wagoneer S – a similar size to the Grand Cherokee – next to arrive at the back end of 2025. Eric Laforge, who has led the brand in Europe for the past two years, confirmed to Autocar at the Brussels motor show that when that car arrives a switch in Jeep’s model range would take place.

“We have an expertise in developing compact cars in Europe, we are credible here and can propose our offer to the rest of the world.” He confirmed the car would offer multiple powertrain options, including electric and hybrid. Larforge added that the new Compass would also grow slightly in size over the current model. This would allow for more daylight between it and the Avenger to give more room for the replacement of the car that sits between this pair: the Renegade.
