The reason they don't have a big enough battery to get 300+ miles of range is because that would take up more room than the Jeep has available. You just don't make plug in hybrids with that kind of electric only range, and only Full EVs do.MOst all the major EV manufacturers produce vehicles that go 300+ miles on a single charge. Why does everyone think Jeep can't achieve something even close to these numbers? Geez, I would think they could build a Wrangler EV, even with its terrible aerodynamics, to get 150 miles out of a single charge it they tried. Oh course they would want to charge $95,000 for it before a single option.
Just take a look at how much space the Rivian's batteries take up and you'll see why you wouldn't want an ICE to go along with it...
