Based on the platform of the offroad SUV Land Rover Defender , Chelsea Truck Company has created an off-road vehicle with 6 wheels and 3-wheel drive, called the Flying Huntsman 6×6 Civilian Carrier.
In 2013, Mercedes-AMG “shocked” when it launched the G63 6×6 with 6 wheels. Only produced in small quantities, the car has been favored by giants for its ability to overcome the most difficult terrain, while still having a luxurious cabin space like other high-end G-Class versions. After nearly 3 years since the AMG G63 6×6 stopped production, only now has a similar model appeared, which is the Flying Huntsman 6×6 Civilian Carrier modified based on the famous off-road vehicle line Anh Quoc Land. Rover Defender.
Flying Huntsman 6×6 Civilian Carrier is a product of Chelsea Truck Company – a branch specializing in upgrading Defenders of the famous luxury car tuning company Project Kahn. Although it is based on the platform of the 5-door Land Rover Defender 110, the car is almost completely different from the original car. Thanks to details such as a riveted widebody, 18-inch turbofan-style rims and Cooper LTZ tires, the Flying Huntsman 6×6 Civilian Carrier has a much cooler and off-road look.
The special feature of this custom vehicle is that Chelsea Truck Company has extended the wheelbase by 880mm, creating space to install an additional bridge to increase traction. Similar to the AMG G63 6×6, the Flying Huntsman 6×6 Civilian Carrier also has 6 wheels driven by 3 axles with differential locks and independent torque converters. With these changes, the car has become much more imposing than the original Defender 110.
Not only does it improve off-road capabilities, pulling the wheelbase to install a third bridge also provides a more spacious cabin for the Flying Huntsman 6×6 Civilian Carrier. The car’s interior space has enough room for 9 people, and is luxuriously finished like a super luxury car. High-quality leather and patterned fabric cover almost every detail in the interior, while the pedals are CNC’d from aluminum and the floor mats are made from dirt-resistant rubber. Chelsea Truck Company also fitted the vehicle with an airy panoramic sunroof.
According to Chelsea Truck Company, the suggested price of the Flying Huntsman 6×6 Civilian Carrier is £249,995. This price is enough for customers to buy the most advanced Range Rover SVAutobiography today, along with another Range Rover Sport with relatively complete equipment. Of course, they will not have the “unique” and offroad capabilities of the Flying Huntsman 6×6 Civilian Carrier.
