2023 MOPAR Easter Jeep Safari Concept Teasers

[wayoflife]

Well, it's almost that time of year again and just like they always do, Mopar is starting to put out some teasers of what they'll have on display at the 57th Annual Moab Easter Jeep Safari. Here's what they've posted up so far.

And with that, I'd love to know what you think about what you're seeing? Anything catch your eye?

They are about ten years late with all these tube doors. Dear lord tell me that's not a Molle system on the back of that jeep? Did the design team base everything off a 2008 Quardatec catalog?

LOL - not gonna lie, I've been seriously less than impressed with what Mopar has been calling "concepts" over the last few years. Sure, some of the rigs on display were nice but more in the kind of bolt on catalog parts kind of way, just as you've noted. Love em or hate em, this is what they were putting out back when Daimler was still in control.

And, I apologize for the crappy pics but some of these were taken with the best digital cameras we had back then.

Well before there was a JK, this is what we saw as a concept for the future.






And who can forget these beauties.



Now those... those were true "concepts", as in, visions of what's possible in the future. Or at least, in my opinion anyway. But hey, that's just me.

Still love the nukizer!

That 2-door rendering has some strange elements. No hinges for the door…looks like an early 70’s bronco tub replacement. Also, the front fenders look semi flat or high clearance but the backs do not. Seems a little mismatched to me. And the “vent” on the front fender / quarter panel seems a bit oddly placed.

That green 2-door looks interesting bit yeah, the bottom electric looks as said.

Did you notice that the tail lights look a bit Gladiatorish too?

 

[DirtHeadDavis]

Agree with everyone else here, in recent years the "concepts" are really just clean builds showcasing all the Mopar accessories with some exceptions like the J6, still want that to go into production.

And seems like the same here this year, the green one just looks like the Magneto... again. Probably gonna be all 4XE and electric crap

Those fenders look a bit more aggressive…or is it just the angle?

I think they are. They remind me of Sandstorm a bit especially with the baja vents on top. The deep body embossing on the rear half is interesting too.

And Sandstorm…

I hope they have some cool stuff this year. We always hit up the Mexican Restaurant and check out the MOPAR display at least once during the week. Seemed like a big line to drive the 4Xe's around on test drives.

The green one looks like it has some kind of 'sport bed' or open tub design. Looks interesting.

Some more teasers were released today...

Is it just me or is there really nothing crazy different on these in terms of a concept vehicle?

Nope, not just you and I'm starting to think the term 'concept' has become relative these days. Kind of like genders.

Yeah, the green one is a little different, like there’s something going on with the tub. This one shows it has “limb risers” connected to the fenders.

Those arn't fender support wires?

Definitely a bummer.

Does that top jeep have the new 2024 grill?
