Trail warriors and Jeep faithful, the 57th Easter Jeep Safari in Moab delivered pure adrenaline with seven custom concepts that push the limits of 4x4 capability, torque delivery, and pure rugged style. These aren't showroom stock – they're rolling testbeds of articulation, crawl ratios, locking differentials, and high-octane innovation. As a Wrangler or Gladiator owner, you'll spot plenty of inspiration for your next build.
Jeep Wrangler Magneto 3.0 Concept – Electric Torque Monster
The third and final evolution of the Magneto series cranks the dial to eleven with battery-electric power that's trail-ready and ferocious. This beast delivers instant torque for crawling over Moab's slickrock like it's nothing.
- 625 horsepower and 900 lb-ft of torque – enough to smoke most V8s off the line
- 70-kWh battery with 20% more range and smarter regen modes
- 6-speed manual transmission (yes, in an EV!) reinforced for massive torque loads
- 4-low crawl mode and dual power levels for precise rock crawling control
Imagine the crawl ratio potential when you pair this electric drivetrain with aftermarket gearing – silent, emissions-free domination on the trails.
Jeep Scrambler 392 Concept – V8-Powered Retro Rocket
Jeep took a Wrangler Rubicon, slapped in the fire-breathing 6.4L HEMI, and turned it into a lightweight, open-bed Scrambler tribute. This thing is all about raw power and attitude.
- 470 horsepower from the 392 HEMI V8
- 40-inch mud-terrain tires on custom 20-inch wheels
- 450 pounds shed with carbon fiber panels, hood, flares, and roof
- Accuair adjustable suspension for killer approach/departure angles
Perfect blueprint for Gladiator owners dreaming of a two-door pickup vibe with insane torque and articulation.
1978 Jeep Cherokee 4xe Concept – Vintage Meets Modern Hybrid
A junkyard 1978 Cherokee SJ body grafted onto a current Wrangler Rubicon 4xe chassis. Retro looks with plug-in hybrid efficiency and serious off-road chops.
- Plug-in hybrid 4xe powertrain for silent electric crawling and gas backup
- 37-inch BFGoodrich mud-terrain tires
- Custom retro interior with eight-track player and mural headliner
- Modern locking diffs and articulation from the Rubicon platform
This mashup proves you can blend classic Jeep soul with today's torque vectoring and electric assist – ultimate mod inspiration.
Other Standout Builds: Rubicon 4xe Departure, Gladiator Sideburn & Grand Wagoneer Overland
The Rubicon 4xe Departure brings multifunctional genius with fold-down grille guards that double as trail seats, while the Gladiator Sideburn rocks wild graphics and cargo-optimized bed setups. The Grand Wagoneer Overland Concept transforms luxury into a chopped-wheelbase overlander with Skyloft camper and 35-inch tires – proving even premium rigs can get dirty.
These concepts aren't just eye candy; they showcase real performance upgrades – from electric torque curves to V8 grunt, hybrid versatility to extreme lightweighting. Many elements will trickle down to production models or aftermarket parts, fueling your next Jeep transformation.
