This. It’s along the lines of “there is no demand for EVs...” yet the company making that statement doesn’t offer (m)any.

I agree. Here’s what Jeep says on their website:

Curious what the specs will be when the plug-in hybrid version comes out, both mpg and electric range. Jeep says on its website that it will 4xe all the things by 2025.

Well that’s definitely a danger to the manifold:

You’re spot on here.

“Forward visibility — thanks to a high seating position, low hood, and reasonably-small pillars — is refreshingly good, especially for a modern car.”

Or the Wilderness Bro.

So much this.

You’re spot on.

“The low beltline, longer hood, bigger windows and pulled back A-pillar really help not only lower the vehicle, but improve driver visibility...”

One feature? How about up to six shift levers on a 1946-1964 Willys Jeep? 

Why off-road in an EV? For me, it’s that sweet instant electric torque. And as much as I love the exhaust note of a V8, the near-silence of an EV off-road is a good option too (it also lets you hear how the tires are working).

That’s because Europeans - well Germans anyway - don’t like pickups. Instead, Germans who have occasional need for a pickup bed will often had a small utility trailer (often stored vertically on its tailgate like a rocket) and then add a trailer hitch, even on 5 and 7 series BMWs and their ilk. The trades largely use…

We used a 120V (grounded) outlet. Free. Plugged in every night (like a smart phone) and it was done in the AM. Easy.

We are there with you. We now have three kids and a big dog. We started off with an all-electric FIAT 500E (1 kid), and moved to an i3 when the second kid arrived. We then had to wait a while for a three row EV.

So much this.

Yes and no.

Sweet electric torque!

Sweet. I’d pay more for a PHEV version with dual electric motors.

This. At least the A and B pillars are slim and the beltline is low. Oh, wait.
