  • 58th annual Jeep Easter Safari
  • Four new concept vehicles for 2024

Jeep’s annual Easter Safari drive to Moab, Utah is always a treat that provides Easter egg-colored concept vehicles to excite off-road enthusiasts.

The 2024 crop includes four new custom creations, each with its own theme and features and built using parts from Jeep Performance Parts by Mopar.

“Easter Jeep Safari in Moab, Utah, is the perfect venue for new Jeep concepts, with more than 20,000 Jeep enthusiasts gathering each year to celebrate the most iconic 4x4 brand in the world,” said Bill Peffer, senior vice president and head of Jeep brand North America. “From 4xe electrification to unmatched 392 power, this year’s Jeep 4x4 concepts illustrate how the most capable Wrangler ever appeals to such a wide range of people.”

The customized vehicles include a pair of Wranglers, a Gladiator pickup, and a Wagoneer family hauler. These machines employ a variety of powertrains to demonstrate the flexibility possible for Jeep owners.

The Jeep Wrangler Low Down concept features the 392 V-8 engine. The Jeep Wrangler 4xe Willys Dispatcher concept employs the 4xe plug-in hybrid drivetrain. The Jeep Gladiator-based High Top concept is powered by the familiar 3.6-liter Pentastar V6, while the Jeep Grand Wagoneer-based Vacationeer concept uses the new Hurricane Twin Turbo 510 inline six-cylinder.
