Elk Grove Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram · Jeep Recon Research
How far the 2026 Recon Moab really goes, how long each type of charger takes, what a home setup involves, and how to plan a trip up Highway 50 without range worries.
| EPA figure | 2026 Recon Moab |
|---|---|
| Combined range | 222 miles |
| City range | 250 miles |
| Highway range | 196 miles |
| Efficiency | 80 city / 62 highway / 71 combined MPGe |
| Energy use | 47.6 kWh per 100 miles |
| Battery | 100.5 kWh lithium-ion, 400-volt |
Like most EVs, the Recon goes farther in stop-and-go driving than at a steady freeway pace, which is why its city range is higher than its highway range. For a commute around Elk Grove and Sacramento, the combined figure is a fair guide. For long runs on I-5 or Highway 50, plan around the 196-mile highway number instead.
Cold weather, sustained high speeds and off-road driving all reduce range. Early launch coverage quoted "up to 250 miles" before the EPA test; the official 222-mile rating is the one to use. Jeep estimates the upcoming Overland trim will reach up to 240 miles, but the EPA hasn't rated it yet.
| Charger | Time (Jeep estimate unless noted) | Best use |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1, 120V outlet | About 52 hours, 5-80% | Backup only, or topping up when parked for days |
| Level 2, 240V | About 6.8 hours, 5-80%; EPA lists 9.4 hours for a full charge | Overnight charging at home |
| DC fast charging | About 28 minutes, 5-80%; about 100 miles in 10 minutes | Road trips and quick stops |
Jeep quotes most times for a 5% to 80% charge because charging slows as the battery gets close to full. On a road trip, it's usually quicker to make a short fast-charging stop and leave around 80% than to wait for 100%. Real-world times vary with the charger's output, the battery's temperature and how full the battery is when you plug in.
Most Recon owners will do nearly all of their charging at home. At about 52 hours for 5% to 80%, a regular 120V outlet is too slow for daily use, so plan on a 240V Level 2 setup. With it, a Recon that comes home low can be ready by morning. Jeep lists a Level 1/Level 2 combination charge cord for the Recon.
The Recon is on the list of Stellantis EVs with access to Tesla's Supercharger network. To use a Supercharger, you need a NACS adapter, which is sold through Mopar and Jeep dealers. Keep it in the vehicle so it's there when you need it.
Before a trip, check your route in a charging app and note a backup station in case your first choice is busy or out of service. Fast charging works best when the battery is low, so plan stops for when you're well below half rather than topping up at every station.
A weekend at Lake Tahoe is the trip most Elk Grove Recon owners will want to plan for. It means a long climb over Echo Summit, often in cold weather, and both use more energy than flat valley driving.
Snow mode and full-time 4WD help on winter roads, but they don't change how much energy the climb takes. Arrive with a buffer rather than counting on the last few miles.
The 2026 Recon Moab is EPA-rated at 222 miles combined, 250 miles in the city and 196 miles on the highway. Cold weather, high speeds and off-road driving reduce range.
On a 240V Level 2 setup, Jeep says about 6.8 hours from 5% to 80%. The EPA lists 9.4 hours for a full charge at 240V. A 120V outlet takes about 52 hours for 5% to 80%.
Jeep says about 28 minutes from 5% to 80%, and about 100 miles of range in 10 minutes. Actual times depend on the charger and battery temperature.
Yes. The Recon has Supercharger access, and you need a NACS adapter, available through Mopar and Jeep dealers.
For daily driving, yes. A 120V outlet takes about 52 hours for 5% to 80%, so it works as a backup but not as your main way to charge.
Yes, with some planning. Leave fully charged, use the 196-mile highway rating as your ceiling, expect less range on the climb and in cold weather, and map fast chargers along Highway 50.
Some electric utilities offer home-charger or panel-upgrade programs, and the amounts and rules change. Check with your utility for what is available at your address.
