Lamborghini Urus 6×6 Pickup Being Secretly Built by French Hot Rodder, Here’s Proof
The Lamborghini Urus has gained immense popularity as one of the most iconic SUVs ever built, overcoming initial concerns that it could have tarnished the brand’s reputation. Often referred to as a super-SUV, the Urus is now set to reach even greater heights with the development of a 6×6 version, thanks to a renowned French hot rodder.
While brands like Hennessey and Apocalypse 6×6 have made a name for themselves with their extreme 3-axle conversions, it’s refreshing to see a French custom car maker challenging the notion that gas-guzzling oversized luxury vehicles resembling army surplus are exclusive to American manufacturers.
Although the idea of a 6×6 Urus is not new and has been the subject of numerous renderings over the years, it has recently come to light that a famous French custom car builder is working on turning these renderings into a reality. However, owning and driving one of these beasts will likely be reserved for millionaires due to its high price tag.
The Supercar Blondie YouTube channel recently visited an exclusive car collection in the Middle East, where they had the opportunity to examine a Rolls-Royce 6×6. This unique vehicle was built by none other than Danton Alexandre, a renowned car enthusiast known for his work on European classic cars with an American hot rod twist.
Danton Alexandre, who resides in a castle and has an impressive physique adorned with tattoos, is notorious for his audacious creations such as a Porsche 911 equipped with a Bentley engine at the front. His latest endeavor, the Lamborghini Urus 6×6, promises to be a tantalizing fusion of power and extravagance, despite potential criticism of its purposefulness.
Details about the 6×6 conversion are scarce, but influential YouTuber Dominika Sofroniciova managed to obtain some leaked information. Danton Alexandre appears to have shared behind-the-scenes photos of the 6×6 Rolls-Royce, along with a preview of his upcoming project. Considering the likely exorbitant cost associated with such a build, it’s no surprise that he seeks ample support for this venture.
Transforming a $230,000 Lamborghini SUV into a 6×6 behemoth certainly requires deep pockets. It wouldn’t be surprising if the final cost of the project surpasses the half-million-dollar mark.
The preview renderings, presumably created by the renowned Al Yasid/Yarid Design studio in collaboration with Danton Alexandre, showcase a body kit reminiscent of an earlier 2019 iteration. However, the latest version features a clever low-rider stance, setting it apart from other 6×6 builds that typically adopt Baja-style suspension. Instead, Danton draws inspiration from the Tyrrell P34, a legendary six-wheeled F1 race car, cleverly connecting the Urus’ racing heritage to its unique design.
Interestingly, Danton Alexandre plans to transform the Urus into a pickup truck, paying homage to Lamborghini’s iconic LM002. If the renderings serve as the blueprint for the project, the rear of the vehicle will be extended, and an aggressively widebody kit will envelop oversized tires. While the Urus pickup may not be suited for heavy-duty work on the farm, it will undoubtedly draw comparisons to the legendary G63 AMG 6×6, showcasing a fascinating contrast between portal axles and lowered air suspension, as well as aero design versus locking differentials and air diffusers.
With the development of the Lamborghini Urus 6×6 pickup truck, Danton Alexandre aims to push the boundaries of automotive innovation and create a vehicle that combines performance, luxury, and sheer audacity. As car enthusiasts eagerly await further updates, it’s clear that this custom creation will undoubtedly make a bold statement on the road, attracting attention and leaving an indelible mark in automotive history.
