Design and features

The Willys2 is based on the Willys MB and uses frame web technology and a one-piece carbon-fiber body. The design takes many design cues from other Jeep models, such as the seven-slot grille and trapezoidal wheel arches. Some elements of the design were later incorporated into the Jeep Liberty.^[1] The Willys2 weighs around 1,361 kg (3,000 lb) with its removable carbon-fiber top. The interior is all plastic, and it is possible to clean the interior by spraying it with water.^[2]

Specifications and performance

The Willys2 was powered by a 1.6 L supercharged I4 engine paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission, this combination allows it to produce about 160 hp (120 kW) and 155 lb⋅ft (210 N⋅m) of torque. It accelerates 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) in approximately 10 seconds and reaching a top speed at around 145 km/h (90 mph).
