After what Jeep has teased and leaked clues and hints, now Jeep has given us a sneak preview at some of its whole new seven concepts, which will be set to debut at the 56th Annual Moab Easter Jeep Safari running April 9-17 in Moab, Utah.
Since Jeep safari is all about off-roading, most of the concepts are based on the Jeep Wrangler and related Gladiator pickup, although one is based on the Grand Cherokee's upcoming plug-in hybrid version. There's also a much more powerful version of the electric Wrangler Magneto concept, which we originally saw at last year's event.
Below, we've gone through the 2022 Jeep Safari concepts' photos, names, and specifications, Check it out.
Jeep Wrangler Magneto 2.0 Concept
The original Wrangler Magneto prototype demonstrated last year that an electric Wrangler can handle the rough stuff, but with this Jeep Wrangler Magento 2.0 version, Jeep decided to dial the performance up higher than the previous one.
There's still a 70-kilowatt-hour battery, attached with an electric engine that provides 625 hp and 1152 Nm of torque, which means that this version got powered at a very high level compared to the previous one, in terms of its horsepower & torque.
It's worth noting that Magneto is most often associated with the Marvel Comics superhero of the same name, but it was originally a word for permanent magnet electric motor generators.
