Additionally, Jeep plans to release an electric version of the Wrangler, called the Recon EV, along with electric models of the Renegade and Compass in the near future.

On December 5, 2024, Stellantis announced a partnership with Zeta Energy Corp. to develop lithium-sulfur EV batteries, which aim to significantly enhance energy density.

This announcement follows Stellantis' plans from October 2024 to develop solid-state EV batteries with Factorial, intended for a new lineup of electric Dodge Chargers expected to launch in 2026.

The new batteries are anticipated to provide more range, 50% faster charging speeds, and cost less than half of current lithium-ion battery technology per kilowatt-hour.

Stellantis claims the new batteries will be lighter while maintaining the same usable energy density as current batteries and will have lower CO2 emissions during production.

This advanced battery technology could reduce the fast-charging time for vehicles like Jeep’s Wagoneer S from 23 minutes to approximately 12 minutes for a charge from 20% to 80%.

The 2024 Jeep Wagoneer S, priced at $71,995, features advanced technology and a range of over 300 miles, while the 2025 Ram 1500 REV electric pickup is set to deliver over 350 miles of range.

Zeta's battery technology will utilize existing gigafactory methods and a short domestic supply chain in Europe or North America.

Tom Pilette, CEO of Zeta Energy, stated that the new battery technology could significantly enhance the performance and cost-effectiveness of electric vehicles.

The partnership will focus on pre-production development, with plans for mass production and vehicle integration by 2030.

Stellantis is preparing to launch its first electric Dodge Charger Daytona EV, starting at $59,995, with performance options offering up to 670 horsepower and a 0 to 60 mph time of 3.3 seconds.
