Looks great. Now put a V6 in there with a 6-speed manual and we can talk.

What's with the aversion to round steering wheels in EVs? They're cool if you'd rather look at it than drive it, I guess.
Round shifter dials are a pox. They're not cool to look at or drive with.
What's with the big red self-destruct button? (Joking)
I like the way they integrated the Wrangler's locker switch design language into the off-road mode selector.
Looks like touch screen "buttons" instead of real buttons for the climate control.

Dear God the huge screen with 50% taken up with all those massive buttons is hideous. No one needs to be staring at 3 gargantuan heated seat controls all year long.

Such a waste of screen real estate, CarPlay/nav looks terrible.

For me personally, it doesn't matter if it looks like tech or Fisher-Price, I'll never own an EV...not willingly, at least.

What is it with people wanting to stuff a gas engine in an EV?

What does the red button on the yellow box disconnect? I worries me that the engineers are worried enough about it to put in a quick kill for testing. Retail will get no such emergency feature

What automatic transmission selector is?

Jank4AU · Dec 10, 2024

I hope it comes standard with that large yellow box on the shifter with the "Do Not Press" red button on top. Just so we have a little extra something to complain about! :LOL:

hard pass

That button reminds me of the old Staples "easy button" ads.

Maybe it will be included to put the Recon into "easy mode" for the lightweights who have no idea what they are doing when they leave the pavement

Or maybe it's a quick emergency ejection button in case the Recon catches fire while they are doing their testing

Looks like a Bronco interior.

Is it me, or is this one of the most boring, homogenized SUV's released among an ocean of other boring, homogenized vehicles that appear to embrace some new boring, homogenized EV design ethos... I don't get it. What happened to a vehicle with a little personality? Like the Wrangler? This vehicle certainly doesn't need to be another Wrangler - but picking up at least some of the design que's that say, "...look–yes, I'm an EV. But look a little closer... I promise there's actually more to me than initially meets the eye." I'm sorry but the Recon is disappointing. It could have been so much more. Just my .02¢. Carry on.

I mean no offense at all. I'm green too. But current EV's are not an option for me...can't work on them at all, bigger carbon footprint than gas, unreliable range due to cold weather or hot (A/C), zero resale, etc. I love the features. But gimme gas until we figure out a better fast-charging battery with more range and a smaller carbon footprint to manufacture.

Effing hideous. Anti-Jeep.

That big red button is a self destruct. Anyone that buys this POS will need to push it.
