Jeep reveals six new concepts alongside updated Magneto EV
The Jeep ’41 concept, meanwhile, pays homage to the first ever Jeep model - the Willys MB - and the firm’s military heritage. Driven by the same 2.0-litre 4xe powertrain as the Cherokee Trailhawk, the model can achieve up to 49mpg and 21 miles of all-electric range.
Inside, the ’41 is fitted with canvas-coloured seats, digital camo inserts, a Rhino-lined floor and a matt green instrument panel. A set of 25in tyres sit on 18in wheels, also painted matt green. To celebrate 20 years of the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, the firm revealed an anniversary model based on a 2003-model-year, two-door version of the popular off-roader.
The concept is also equipped with a dual-mode performance exhaust, a bonnet with a centre scoop, custom-built half doors and an electric roof. It’s finished in a granite crystal colour and has been lifted by 51mm. Its 17in wheels, meanwhile, feature 37in mud-terrain tyres. The Jeep Rubicon-based Bob concept was created as a reference to 'bobbing', where drivers shorten the frame of their Jeep behind the rear axle to reduce the overhangs of pick-up beds.
Bob is driven by a 3.0-litre diesel V6 engine, mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. A Mopar cold-air intake is said to further boost torque and improve fuel economy, while a vented carbon bonnet improves airflow to the engine.The Jeep D-Coder acts as a “rolling catalogue of factory-tested and factory-backed items” that Jeep customers can buy to fit to their vehicles.
