Jeep Magneto
Based on the Wrangler Rubicon, this is a fully capable BEV with enhanced rock-climbing force. Magneto is designed to be a zero-emission vehicle with a 4x4 setup that provides new levels of efficiency, performance, and customization.
Jeep Magneto benefits from a custom-built axial flux electric motor and a special e-motor, both connected to a six-speed manual gearbox. This combination contributes to a comfortable and pleasurable driving experience. The compact e-motor delivers up to 273lb-ft of torque and 285hp.
The battery packs deliver a combined power of 70kW/h and run on an 800-volt system. These are lithium-ion units distributed around the chassis – on pack replaces vehicle's mid-ship fuel tank, another one is mounted opposite the fuel tank location, the third one can be found atop of the e-motor under the hood and the fourth one is mounted in the rear storage compartment.
