The Jeep Wrangler Magneto 2.0 is an improved and enhanced version of last year’s Magneto. Both cars use 4-wheel drive. The first-generation electric motor can output 285 hp and 371 Nm of torque.
The second-generation power has been greatly improved, reaching 625 hp and 1156 Nm Nm, but the motor speed is a little lower than the first generation’s 6000 rpm, only 5250 rpm. Both generations of cars have built-in 70 kWh batteries, while the second generation uses an 800v high-voltage platform, and the charging speed is faster.
Magneto 2.0 uses the body of the two-door Jeep Wrangler but also uses a six-speed electric manual transmission (e-manual), 0 to 60 mph (about 95km / h) acceleration in just two seconds.
Moreover, this car may be officially released in 2024. According to Motortrend, the price of Magneto 2.0 is between 50,000-60,000 US dollars, and the car will be sold by then performance and appearance are subject to change.
