# Jeep’s New All-Terrain E-Bike Has 40 Miles of Range, Will Set You Back $5,899

Jeep is finally jumping into the electric game, but we aren’t exactly talking about a battery-powered Wrangler—at least not yet. The company’s first foray into the alternative-energy mobility game will come in the form of an [electric mountain bike](<https://jeepe-bike.com>), complete with fat tires and a full Fire-Link suspension system.

We got a peep at the bike during Jeep’s Super Bowl ad, which featured Bill Murray hooning around in a Gladiator as a throwback to the cult favorite movie, *Groundhog Day*. One quick scene in that commercial showed Murray taking off on a Jeep-branded bike. Now, we’re getting more information on the two-wheeler, which will be manufactured by [QuietKat](<https://www.quietkat.com/product/2020-jeep-bike/>), a company that makes a variety of other electric mountain bikes. The [Jeep](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/32115/heres-the-meaning-behind-the-2020-jeep-gladiator-mojaves-new-desert-rated-badge>) bike will be based on the company's existing RidgeRunner design, but will feature a slew of upgrades and a special "Decorated Jeep" paint job.

The [Jeep](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/31826/that-should-fit-how-chryslers-legendary-jeep-wrangler-plymouth-prowler-test-car-came-to-be>) E-Bike has a starting price of $5,899, which is undoubtedly pricey but not unrealistic in that space.

The bike’s equipment makes a strong case for the money. Up to 40 miles of range is possible from the 750-watt electric motor, and the bike’s full suspension system should make for quite a comfortable ride. Power comes from a 14.5ah/48V battery and stopping force comes courtesy of four-piston hydraulic disc brakes.

Pre-orders for the bike are open now on the QuietKat website, but buyers won’t be ripping up the trails until at least June when the E-Bike is scheduled to ship.
