Jeep has unveiled seven new concepts for the annual Easter Jeep Safari in Moab, Utah. First up, the 4SPEED concept is a lightweight Wrangler which has been equipped with a carbon fiber hood, carbon fiber fender flares and a carbon fiber rear tub with perforated aluminum panels. The model also has a steeply raked windscreen, elongated door openings and a custom roll cage.

The Wrangler’s overall length has been shortened by 558.8 mm and this helps to improve approach and departure angles. The model also has new front seats and 18-inch wheels wrapped in 35-inch BF Goodrich Mud Terrain tires.

Motivation is provided by a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that is connected to an eight-speed automatic transmission. It sends power to the ground via Dana 44 axles with a 4.10 gear ratio.


Next up is the Sandstorm concept which draws inspiration from Baja racers. It features a unique exterior with a ventilated carbon fiber hood, custom fender flares and tubular bumpers. The concept has also been equipped with auxiliary lights, rock rails and a bespoke roll cage with a spare tire carrier.

To maximize its off-road potential, engineers installed a four-link suspension, custom coilovers and special bypass shocks. The model also has heavy-duty Dynatrac 60 axles with a 5.68 gear ratio as well as 17-inch beadlock wheels with 39.5-inch BF Goodrich Krawler tires. Power is provided by a 6.4-liter V8 engine which is mated to a six-speed manual transmission.


The next concept is the Nacho Jeep which is described as a “rolling catalog” of Jeep Performance Parts from Mopar. The Wrangler Rubicon features a Nacho yellow exterior with a bulging hood, a satin black grille and a Warn winch. The model also has LED auxiliary lights, rock rails and tubular doors.

On the performance side, the Wrangler has been equipped with a 2-inch lift kit, aluminum body shocks and 17-inch beadlock wheels with 37-inch tires. Other highlights include Katzkin leather seats and a black fuel door.


Moving on, the retro-inspired Jeepster concept recalls the classic model as it features a two-tone exterior and a custom slanted hardtop. Elsewhere, designers installed auxiliary lights, a 2-inch lift kit, aluminum body shocks and 17-inch beadlock wheels wrapped in 37-inch BF Goodrich KO2 tires.

Inside, the concept has Katzkin leather seats, Firecracker Red accents and a custom in-cabin spare tire carrier.


The final Wrangler concept appears to pay tribute to the Mercedes G-Class as it is called the J-Wagon. It is based on the Wrangler Sahara and features a stylish Warm Neutral Grey exterior with Brass Monkey accents and a performance hood which accommodates a snorkel. Other exterior features include 5-inch LED auxiliary lights, a black grille, “rock sliders” and 17-inch wheels with off-road tires.

Drivers will find an upscale interior with camel-colored leather seats that feature brown piping and “plow-through inserts that mimic the triangulated grille design of the concept rock rails.” The model also has Brass Monkey accents on the steering wheel, vents and door handles.


Getting away from the Wranglers, the B-Ute concept is based on the Renegade and it features unique fascias, a modified grille and a new hood. The model has also been equipped with wider fender flares, a 1.5-inch lift kit and 17-inch wheels with BF Goodrich T/A Baja Champion tires. unique styling continues in the cabin as designers installed two-tone upholstery, carbonite accents and piano black trim.

Lastly, the Wagoneer Roadtrip concept is based on a 1965 model and features a wheelbase that has been stretched by five inches. The team wanted to keep the appearance relatively stock so they made subtle revisions and installed 17-inch steel wheels with 33-inch BF Goodrich Mud-Terrain tires.


The classic styling cues continue in the cabin as the original bench seats and door panels have been retained and covered in Oxblood-colored leather. Other special touches include a wicker headliner, a custom cooler “fashioned from period-correct luggage” and a tool box which was created from the valve cover of the Wagoneer’s original 230 Tornado OHC-6 engine.

Despite the old school styling, the Wagoneer Roadtrip concept has been equipped with a reinforced frame, Dana 44 axles and a four-link suspension with coilover springs. The model also has a 5.7-liter V8 engine and a four-speed automatic transmission.
