In what parallel universe is a Wrangler, electric or otherwise, a competitor to Tesla? Perhaps the article mangled the meaning behind what Stellantis said, but the notion that Jeep is going to convert Tesla owners to Wrangler owners en masse is laughable.
Starting at $78K! For a Jeep? Best of luck with that.
It'll sell fine. Modern jeeps are for people who want to look outdoorsy but can't get a Subaru because people might think they're a lesbian (and, in this case, can't get a tesla because people might think they're a librul). The wagoneer is doing OK, the 4xe trims are doing OK, and none of them are going offroad any further than the dirt trailhead parking lot.
Looks like a Jaguar F-pace from all sides except the front.
