2025 JEEP WAGONEER S - CERTIFIED 600HP SLEEPER - POV REVIEW

EV Channels Review

The 2025 Jeep Wagoneer S presents a compelling, albeit quirky, entry into the electric SUV market. While initially polarizing due to infotainment glitches and a hyper-sensitive throttle, the reviewer found the vehicle grew on them over a week of testing. The 600hp dual-motor setup delivers astonishing acceleration, making it a genuine "sleeper" car capable of surprising performance vehicles. Positives include a high-quality interior with premium materials, an excellent McIntosh audio system, and a surprisingly comfortable highway ride. However, the reviewer notes significant drawbacks: the throttle is excessively sensitive, making smooth driving challenging, and the navigation system lacks robust EV charging support. The exterior design is noted as aerodynamic but somewhat unremarkable, and the tires struggle to put down the immense power, leading to wheelspin. Despite its flaws, the Wagoneer S redeems itself with its exhilarating performance and a fun-to-drive character, positioning it as a unique option for those seeking an electric SUV with a performance edge.
