by AutoExpert | 22 March, 2021
On March 27, in Moab, Utah, at their usual annual weeklong celebration, Jeep will unveil four concepts for the 2021 Easter Jeep Safari, including the all-electric Wrangler Magneto. The other three concepts are named as follows: Jeep Wrangler Orange Peelz, Jeep Gladiator Rubicon Red Bare, and 1968 Jeepster Commando Beach.
The all-electric Wrangler Magneto was build based on the 2020 Wrangler Robicon and will have four battery packs placed around the chassis for optimal weight distribution. With a combined capacity of 70 kWh, Jeep hasn't released yet any information about its range levels. Its electric motors can generate up to 285 hp and 370 Nm of torque, coupled to a six-speed manual transmission. When you get a stick shift in an electric vehicle, be ready to have an additional internal combustion engine. After several tests performed, Jeep states that the Wrangler Magneto can reach 0-60 mph in just 6.8 seconds.
Available in white color, it was adorned with blue accents and 'Magneto" decals on the outer edges of the hood. The upgraded features extend on lights, beefy bumpers, 2-inch lift kit, winch, a roll cage, and 17-inch wheels wrapped in chunky rubber.
The Jeep Wrangler Orange Peelz, the off-road is presented in a striking light orange accentuated by the Corning Gorilla Glass windscreen. This concept sports a half-doors prototype without side and rear windows, removable sunroof, trail lights, unique badges and graphics, a 2-inch lift kit, and M/T tires. After a closer look at this concept, this one is similar to a regular two-door Wrangler powered by a 3.6-liter Pentastar V6, hooked up to the eight-speed automatic gearbox delivering up to 285 ho and 353 Nm of torque.
Another concept ready for the Easter Jeep Safari event is the Jeep Gladiator Rubicon Red Bare. Despite its glorious and long name, this one is a better version of the Gladiator Rubicon that we're used to. This is a monster for the arduous terrains with a 91:1 crawl ratio, Dana 44 axels with 4.88 ratios, steel bumpers, winch, grille guard, and BFGoodrich tires. Its character is built by a 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6 coupled to the same as the Wrangler Orange Peelz concept - eight-automatic transmission.
The start concept is the modified 1968 Jeepster Commando Beach, named on its first reveal - the C101. Additional modern twists, a customer paint finish, the red leather upholstery, and other gadgets. This one is powered by a more powerful 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine delivering 340 hp and 500Nm of torque.
It seems like this year the Jeep event will be colorful and ready to impress. Other beautiful concepts joining the four concepts will be the Wrangler Rubicon 392, Gladiator Top Dog, and Gladiator Farout.
