It’s not everyday that you see a Toyota Hilux, much less one with six wheels. Arctic Trucks specializes in building these custom vehicles, called the AT44 6×6, all of which are based on the Toyota Hilux. This isn’t a simple process either, as the truck needs to be completely disassembled first before 80% of the frame is replaced and 20% rebuilt.
Scot Burner has just set a new Guinness World Record in his C7 Corvette, but it’s not what you think.

Rome-based Gorgona Cars showcased their Mazda NM Concept at Italy’s national MX-5 gathering, and it is a stunner to say the least. It started out as a standard first-generation ‘NA’ MX-5 before the team removed its windshield, placed a metal cover over the passenger seat, welded the bottom section of each door, and then fitted a small aerodynamic piece behind the driver’s seat.
The BMW Dune Taxi prototype is teased in a new cinematic short film that showcases exactly what an electric off-road machine is capable of in the Arabian Desert. There’s no official word on its powertrain, but we do know that its electric motors make 536 hp and 738 lb-ft, plenty of power to get around just about any dune.
