- Rob gives us a tour of the Jeep Wrangler Willys Dispatcher Concept, one of four new vehicles revealed at the 58th Easter Jeep Safari. A bit of where the Jeep brand has been, a bit of where it is going. That’s how Jeep describes its Willys Dispatcher concept.
And it is the second notion that should be the important takeaway. A bit of where it is going.
That’s because Jeep designers always try to hide a few things here and there that will eventually find a way into production vehicles.
For this year, maybe that means the vehicle's stamped Willys logo on a JL hood is coming. Or, more likely, that green paint hue, called Element 115, will be an offering for upcoming models.
Whatever the case, this Willys does not appear much different than the current Wrangler in its design, but a gloss black windshield definitely catches the eye almost immediately as does the white, throwback 16-inch steel wheels around 36-inch tires.
While the brand brought numerous 4xe vehicles last year to Moab, the Willys is the only hybrid along for the ride this year. It features a 2.0-liter engine delivering 375 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque, as well as plug-in hybrid capability that usually gives around 20-30 miles of fully-electric range.
That stamped Willys hood leads up to a front end complete with a classic 8274 Warn winch, Epic Series Winch Hook and recovery point D-rings.
Inside, saddle leather seats sport houndstooth cloth inserts while low back seats eliminate headrests for that older, vintage, Jeep look.
JPP also makes its presence felt with vinyl flooring, bikini top and an onboard air compressor.

I absolutely LOVE that concept Jeep!!!
The winch and that color definitely need to be factory Jeep options.
I’d order now if I could!
always been a fan of the auga green color
Quadratec is awesome, but for the love of God do you see an apostrophe between the y and s? It makes me cringe every time you say it. John North Willys founded the company that no one under the age of 60 seems to be able to correctly pronounce. Will iss not Will ees... 🤦 Thank you. Your Jeep 101class is dismissed.
I adore that 1950s retro Willy's Dispatch concept. I want one!!!
pronounced "willis"
Who makes the steel wheels want to get a set, also who made the bumpers?
Bumpers are custom fabricated, pretty sure the wheels are Speedway Smoothie Steel wheels, Jeep has used them on a number of different concepts over the years.
You should check out the Fifteen52 Analog HD wheel, it's an aluminum alloy wheel that has the look of a classic steel wheel - www.quadratec.com/p/fifteen52/analog-hd-wheel-wrangler-jk-jl
