2023 Ultimate Overland Vehicle Build
2022 Lexus
LX600
Beginning with the brand-new Lexus LX600, the Ultimate Overland Vehicle Build includes many one-off and first of their kind parts for the LX600 chassis. As the LX600 might be the closest that the US market gets to a 300-series Land Cruiser, we have built a vehicle that is ready for round-the-world travel.
One of the challenges of building out a vehicle that is the first of a new generation is the challenge of securing quality parts that are currently in the design phase at most manufacturers. We are very grateful to all of our partners that developed many new parts for this vehicle, we couldn’t have made this vehicle happen without your support.
