Entry Model Specs, Premium Model Price?

[OH1984]

Exactly lol. I was looking at the price of Jeep trims and wow are they expensive. But also why does Jeep have 8+ trims per model, no wonder stellantis is collapsing.

Yeah bronco did the same and got way out of hand with trims in my opinion.

Keep it simple.
1. Standard entry level (not junk, a solid basic model, same range)
2. Comfort version (leather luxury feature standard road tires that are quiet)
3. Off road trim
*optional features to add to all trims

Yesss And make sure they are as customizable as possible no blockers like every other car configurator.

For sure, bench, tops, stereo, interior color choice (cloth, leather, vegan leather/vinyl), rock rails or side steps, etc.

I would hate to pick a cool set of rims and for it to add 20 other options I didn’t want.

Yes. I hope they don't have bundles of things I don't want to get a particular feature

Agree with @THil08 three packages are fine so long as each one can be upgraded somewhat a la cart to create tiers within those three levels. I’d like a mix of off-road/luxury-something akin to the Lexus GX

I am just hoping the the retractable roof and interior and Audio wont drive base price up to much. Those are my key points. The harvester models are also on the table if price is right

Yes… with you. I want premium stereo, cabana, bench.

Hopefully that won’t drive up price much. Curious how they will adjust pricing when the ev tax credit is gone? Not so much an “if” at this point.

Delay until it’s brought back?

Won’t happen. Countries all over the world are ending subsidies. There was some extensive discussions about this and general consensus is sooner or later EV’s must stand on their own. Do t get me wrong-I’d like the federal incentive to be available in 2027 but have a hunch if you want it you’ll need to hold until 28/29 and hope changes occur that bring it back

That’s what I was saying my dude. Delay release until then.

But then you’ve got a $2 billion dollar factory sitting empty for a year and a half. Not a good way to start out

EV tax credit doesn’t require review until 2032 when it expires. And it’s still an “if”.

Unless I'm reading this wrong. But i believe it's pretty clear.
