GWM CyberP!ckup Is A 6x6 Monster!

The concept is destined for production, and may spawn pure electric and hydrogen versions.
Great Wall Motors (GWM) has unveiled a six-wheeler concept truck that makes the GMC Hummer EV Pickup look normal. The oddly-named CyberP!ckup 6x6 was co-developed by GWM and Chaojing Motors, another Chinese manufacturer. Based on the little-known Shanhai Cannon, this monstrous pickup is able to crush any terrain with six 18-inch wheels wrapped up in Cooper Discoverer AT3 off-road rubber.
The addition of a third axle has transformed what was once an underwhelming truck into a seriously menacing machine. Underneath, you'll find strengthened off-road suspension, along with nitrogen shock absorbers and five electronic differential locks.
While a torque-rich V8 powertrain would be fitting, the CyberP!ckup 6x6 is fitted with a thoroughly modern plug-in hybrid setup. Paired with an electric motor, the twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 produces 510 horsepower and 552 lb-ft of torque. According to GWM, the six-wheeler can travel 31 miles on electric power alone.”
(Don’t know if this wild rig will ever see our North America soil, but it sure seems to be an example of how unlimited the ideas are becoming for building big electric…or better yet, hydrogen…off road capable vehicles)
