Oopsie.
Jeep released a teaser image of its upcoming Wagoneer S electric SUV last week, but now it’s gone The Full Monty.
In an apparent slip up, the off-road brand clear photos of the entire vehicle to its Facebook page, but quickly deleted them.
Then again, who knows if it really was an accident?

Mopar Insiders snagged the images before they were taken down and they reveal quite a lot about the vehicle.

Notably, it features an SUV coupe-like roofline that’s obscured by a large wing extension that gives it a more upright look in profile.
The design apparently allows it to blend efficient aerodynamics with a traditional SUV style. An S logo can also be seen embossed into the rearmost roof panel.
The Wagoneer S will launch later this year with an all-wheel-drive powertrain rated at 600 hp that’s capable of accelerating the vehicle to 60 mph in 3.5 seconds, according to Jeep.
It rides on the STLA Large electric vehicle platform that will be shared with several models, including the Dodge Charger Daytona coupe.
Full specifications and a price range for the Wagoneer S haven’t been announced, but now that the photos are out there, it’s likely Jeep will follow them up with a formal release.
Along with the Wagoneer S, Jeep is also expected to release the Recon SUV this year. The Recon features a boxier, Wrangler-style look and has removable doors and roof panels.

It’s meant to be more of a serious off-roader, while the Wagoneer S is a street-focused model with light all-terrain capability.
