It really has been a tough thing to see so much of SEMA promoting electric this and electric that and in addition to the official Mopar concepts, SURGE and MAGNETO, there were a few other, older Jeeps that had been retrofitted with electric power plants at the 2022 show. Of them, this beautiful Jeep CJ-8 Scrambler caught my eye if only because it looked so good. I got talking to the owner and apparently, he was originally going to do an LS swap but then went down the electric rabbit hole instead. Take a guess at what the price difference was.
Anyway, here are some shots of the Jeep and the power plant. And, it should be noted that unlike a lot of other retrofits, this one is an actual kit.
