Cost to Charge a Jeep Recon
Updated September 2026 · U.S. average rates
The short answer: at the national average rate, a full home charge of the Jeep Recon (100 kWh usable, ~250 miles of range) costs about $18.78 — 7.5¢ per mile, or $75.11 per 1,000 miles. The same charge at a public DC fast charger runs roughly $43.00. Versus a 32-mpg gas car, home charging saves about $23.33 per 1,000 miles.
Living with a Jeep Recon: the cost story
The Recon is the trail-flavored Jeep EV — removable doors, serious approach angles, and the aero consequences that come with them. Expect consumption in the thirsty half of the table.
Its real comparison is the gas Wrangler, one of the thirstiest vehicles in America; against that baseline, even a boxy EV looks like an economy car at the meter.

Jeep Recon charging speed & home charger
Cost does not depend on speed — a kWh is a kWh — but time does. These estimates use the Jeep Recon's onboard AC limit (11 kW) and its typical DC fast-charging peak (~150 kW); real sessions taper as the battery fills.
Home charger sizing: the Jeep Recon tops out at 11 kW on AC, so a 48-amp charger on a 60-amp circuit reaches its limit — a bigger unit adds nothing. Overnight (8 hours) on Level 2 restores about 198 miles, more than most daily driving. See Level 1 vs Level 2 and how many kWh it takes to charge an EV.
