At the 2011 Paris Boat Show, Jeep decided to debut their collaboration with design studio Style & Design with two variants of their Wrangler Nautic Concepts. The two companies worked together to show off two different Wrangler Unlimited concepts, one white and one black.

Both vehicles feature contrasting color-themed accessories, equipped with 20-inch wheels, a chrome grille, trunk opening with finished deck, running boards with finished deck and chrome door handles and trunk hinges. Further accenting the interior are navy wings sheathed in color-matched (for their theme) leather while the spare wheel cover also has been redone in its respective shade.

The interior features plenty of customized upholstery, one with Navy White while the other has been outfitted with Navy Black. The console dashboard and door handle inserts have the matching deck finish while the shifter gate and headliner have been redone in their matching color.

Both vehicles clearly draw inspiration from luxury yachts and come equipped with canvas awnings and canvas folding chairs. The pair of Wrangler Unlimited models is just another step towards the right direction as Chrysler continues to focus on the European market.
