This yr, the Offgrid employees shall be attending the 2023 Overland Expo, and we’re excited to get a preview of the 2023 Final Overland Car. Overland Expo is cranking issues up a notch with a closely modified Lexus LX600. Designed to maintain a bunch of 4 snug and comfortable off the crushed path for as much as per week, this luxurious SUV/trailer combo appears extra akin to a cell penthouse than an overlanding rig. Mule Expedition Outfitters spent lots of of hours ensuring no stone was left unturned, and the outcomes are exceptional. Chosen for its 3.6 turbocharged V6, GA-F physique on body platform, and a myriad of offroad capabilities, the LX600 was a potent overlanding car earlier than including all of the extras.
Entrance Finish
The LX600’s entrance has been closely modified with the ARB Summit MKII entrance bumper, behind which is the brand new SOLO Collection 12.5 winch from Comeup. A pair of ARB’s new Depth IQ lights present illumination, and the Summit MKII helps Midland Radio’s new Bull Bar Antenna, which boosts Midland’s MXT-575 GMRS radio mounted contained in the cabin. Hooked up to the roof is the first-ever Prinsu roof rack for the LX600. It holds the Armadillo A2 rooftop tent in addition to the Peregrine 270 awning, each from 23 ZERO. Inbuilt alongside the facet are camp and scene lighting, courstesy of Imaginative and prescient X’s Overland Space Lights.
To extend the off-road functionality of the LX600, suspension parts from Whole Chaos and Radflo have been included. Whole Chaos developed higher and decrease management arms and rear hyperlinks, and inventory shocks and struts have been changed by Radflo’s 2.5 diameter Distant Reservoir shocks and coilovers. This makes suspension top greater than 2.5 inches taller than inventory with a lot larger journey. Elevated suspension top permits 33/12.5R17 Kenda Klever R/T tires to be mounted round 17-inch, satin black compression wheels from ICON Dynamics. Off-road path navigation is managed by the onX Offroad Path Maps app, which is working via Apple CarPlay on the LX600’s 12.3-inch touchscreen.

Within the rear, an all-new twin swing-out rear bumper from CBI Offroad is used to mount the truck’s full-size spare tire on one arm and a five-gallon jerry can with a set of traction boards on the opposite. When the bumper is swung open and the rear hatch is lifted there may be Goose Gear’s new Final Chef Package deal for LX600, which features a CFX3 45 fridge from Dometic. Meals ready utilizing the Final Chef Package deal may be loved on Tactical Tables and Chairs from Helinox, and extra water for consuming and cleansing is saved in two of Dometic’s Go Hydration Water Jug and Water Faucet.
Housing the rig’s auxiliary energy administration system, the Sensible BMS CL 12/100, from Victron Vitality, is a customized field crafted by MULE Expedition Outfitters. An Optima Batteries Yellowtop DH7 battery mounted below the hood will get the LX’s 3.5-liter V6 cranked and working, and the twin-turbo six’s deep rumble emanates from the first-ever MagnaFlow Overland Collection Cat-Again Efficiency Exhaust System.
