The CJ5 concept combines Jeep heritage with the newly refined sense of personal freedom and efficiency in an off road vehicle. The smaller, two seat package, harkens back to the original CJ5’s platform providing the “lone wolf” persona with only the essential amount of space. The electic drivetrain and interior features make the CJ5 the effecient adventure tool.
