Any idea when the order banks open?

brett
If they are shooting for Dec availability I would think orders should open any day now. Part of the wait might be the EPA stuff to lock in the tax credits etc. If this vehicle is $8k more than a sport, but adds some options as standard, then factor in the $7500 credit, it's a no brainer given the increased performance AND efficiency. Having said that I would MUCH rather have a pure EV with no ICE whatsoever and 300 mi range.

I am wanting this car but many have steered me away from it because it’s a 1st gen on a new type of motor/battery etc

I get it, can be A LOT of issues

But I always loved the idea of a plug in Wrangler..

Am I wrong in my understanding that a lot of the same technology has been used in the Pacifica for some time? If that is true, perhaps that could assuage some of the concerns.

I've owned several of these mild hybrid systems, most recently I had a new i8 in 2015. It isn't rocket science, esp with such a small battery. And yes, this has been used in the pacifica among others. This is barely ground breaking. They are still light years behind the market. I just think with the $7500 tax credit, it should pay for itself and be a no brainer.
