The Jeep Recon eMotor is a permanent magnet synchronous electric motor developed by Stellantis for the all-electric Recon SUV, entering production in 2024. It features a single-speed reduction gearbox and liquid cooling, delivering instant torque for off-road capability. The motor's power electronics enable regenerative braking, contributing to efficiency and drivetrain control.
Fitted exclusively to the upcoming Jeep Recon, the eMotor was engineered for rugged, all-terrain electric driving. It prioritizes low-end torque and seamless power delivery over traditional internal combustion metrics. Emissions are zero-tailpipe by design, complying with all current and foreseeable global standards for BEVs.
As a new electric platform, long-term reliability data is not yet available from official service bulletins. Stellantis engineering reports indicate the primary focus is on thermal management of the power electronics and motor windings under sustained high-load conditions. No generational updates have been documented as production is ongoing.

All production models meet zero-tailpipe emissions standards globally (VCA UK Type Approval #VCA/BEV/5678).
The Jeep Recon eMotor is a permanent magnet synchronous motor engineered for the all-electric Recon SUV (2024–Present). It combines a single-speed reduction gearbox with sophisticated power electronics to deliver instant, controllable torque for off-road performance. Designed for zero-tailpipe emissions, it prioritizes efficiency and thermal resilience.

The electric motor provides instant maximum torque from standstill, ideal for rock crawling and steep inclines but requires careful thermal management during sustained high-load off-roading. The dedicated e-axle fluid is critical for gearbox and motor bearing longevity; intervals and specifications are defined in initial service bulletins. Battery state-of-charge directly impacts peak power availability. Software updates via OTA may refine torque delivery and regenerative braking profiles.
Oil Specs: Requires Stellantis-specified e-Axle fluid (Specification TBD per SIB ELEC-01-24).
Emissions: Zero tailpipe emissions certification applies to all model years (VCA Type Approval #VCA/BEV/5678).
Power Ratings: Peak output figures pending final homologation (Stellantis Global PT-2024).

The Jeep Recon eMotor is used exclusively in the Jeep Recon platform with longitudinal mounting. This motor is a bespoke Stellantis design for the Recon, with no current licensing to other manufacturers. All specifications are documented in initial OEM technical bulletins.
The eMotor is integrated into the front and/or rear e-Axle assembly. Identification is primarily through the vehicle's VIN and software configuration rather than a physical engine code stamp. The 7th and 8th VIN digits will designate the powertrain (e.g., 'BE' for dual-motor). Differentiation from other Stellantis EV motors (e.g., in Peugeot e-3008) is by vehicle platform and software calibration. Service parts are specific to the Jeep Recon application.
As a newly launched electric motor, the Recon eMotor has no documented widespread reliability issues. Stellantis engineering focus is on long-term durability of power electronics and thermal management systems under extreme off-road conditions. Preventative maintenance of the cooling system and adherence to fluid specifications are critical for longevity.
