Seven new creations from the mad scientists at Jeep
CAPTIVATING CONCEPTS

One of the most anticipated parts of the annual Easter Jeep Safari in Moab, Utah, is when the mad scientists at Jeep unveil the latest collection of concept vehicles. For 2022, the Jeep brand and Jeep Performance Parts trotted out seven vastly different, captivating concepts. The collection contained Wrangler Unlimited, Gladiator, and Grand Cherokee models, each bearing a laundry list of mods and in some cases one-off custom parts. The 2022 collection is also noteworthy because four of the seven Jeeps had either full electric or hybrid-electric powertrains. This is the most ever in the history of Easter Jeep Safari Jeep concepts, and an indicator of the rapid shift to electric power.

JEEP WRANGLER MAGNETO 2.0

The Jeep Wrangler Magneto all-electric powertrain concept dropped in 2021 and it floored the wheeling world. We noted at the time that we felt it's the future of off-roading, and a year later we still stand by that opinion. Magneto featured an "axial flux electric motor" where the internal combustion engine once sat, and it delivered 285 hp and 273 lb-ft of torque. The motor was powered by four lithium-ion battery packs that had a combined power of 70 kW/h on an 800V system and this helped Magneto accelerate from a standing stop to 60 mph in 6.8 seconds. The motor was mated to an old-school manual gearbox and the stout Rubicon running gear.

Ddecades ahead of the '20 four-door Bronco, and even preceding the Ford Explorer and Excursion, came an SUV that could have passed for OEM and was built to answer the call for a three-row people-haulin' off-roader.

JEEP OR BLAZER BUILDING

I was hoping to pick your brain as to a couple of different builds. I have a '19 Jeep Wrangler JL and a '74 Chevy Blazer. I'm a little baffled as to what to focus on. The '74 full convertible Blazer is my dream vehicle. She's been a long build and now I am thinking of focusing my energy on my wife's '19 Jeep JL. I recently joined a Jeep club and have been going off-road with a few guys. I'm shopping around for lift kits. Would you suggest that my time be spent and focused on the Blazer or enjoy the Jeep? I really can't do both.
