An emergency concept vehicle that goes where few can.
Part of the Easter Jeep Safari event held in Moab, Utah, every year is to showcase the latest and greatest in off road vehicles and products for the American brand. At the 49th annual event from March 28th to April 5th, this year, Jeep has brought seven concept vehicles featuring the latest designs, ideas, parts, rims and tires, and more. The new Jeep Wrangler Red Rock Responder concept vehicle might be the most important one of all. The bright red emergency vehicle is designed to have its Jeep Wrangler wheels go anywhere and bring aid to those in need.
“Jeep is proud to be taking seven new eye-catching and extremely capable vehicles to the Easter Jeep Safari, where we expect to delight our most loyal enthusiasts,” said Mike Manley, President and CEO – Jeep Brand. “We go to this legendary event each year to showcase our latest Jeep production vehicles, as well as a variety of new ideas in our concept vehicles. In doing so, we receive a tremendous amount of valuable feedback, while interacting with our customers in the Jeep brand’s natural environment.”
The new concept vehicle is based on the Jeep Wrangler and is designed as an emergency aid vehicle that can overcome tough terrain to assist those in need. Everything from the off road rims and tires to the eye-catching red paint was made with the purpose of helping others.
No matter what kind of tough terrain lies ahead, these Jeep Wrangler wheels can overcome it thanks to the Jeep Performance Parts and other upgrades installed by engineers, designers, and fabricators. The head-turning look starts with a Vibrance Responder Red paint that is contrasted by a Jeep Performance Parts decal at the rear. A new 10th Anniversary hood benefits from hydraulic props while a massive bed with spray-on liner has been integrated into the rear of the SUV. New black high-top fender flares house the large Jeep Wrangler wheels and allow for greater amounts of vertical suspension travel. New 10th Anniversary Edition steel front and rear bumpers from the Wrangler Rubicon also are worn to prevent any kind of damage. Helping to light the way are LED headlights and fog lights along with LED A-pillar lights and off-road lights.
Ensuring that obstacles can be overcome without worry are new rims and tires along with tough Jeep Performance Parts suspension and drivetrain bits. New 17-inch beadlock Jeep Wrangler wheels with a black finish and Vibrance Responder Red beadlock ring wear 37-inch BF Goodrich Mud Terrain T/A KM2 tires. The new rims and tires sit farther away from the Jeep’s body thanks to a new lift kit and Fox shocks while front and rear Dana 60 axles with 5.38 gearing helps ensure maximum off road prowess.
For emergencies, The Jeep Wrangler Red Rock Responder is fitted with big side cargo boxes. Inside of these boxes are high-lift jacks and accessories, a fire extinguisher, roadside kit, first aid kit, Snap-On tool soft bags, and a recovery kit. A dual compressor with reservoir, air hose, and accessories is also stored along with a cooler or case of water.
Inside, all of the seats wear black and red Mopar Katzkin leather upholstery with contrasting stitching and Jeep Performance parts logos on the headrests. Special red bezels on the dashboard and red grab handles complement the vibrant red paint while all-weather floor mats keep things tidy.
The go-anywhere, emergency Jeep Wrangler Red Rock Responder is a concept vehicle for the Easter Jeep Safari. Many options, however, are available as Jeep Performance Parts.
