Toyota has built the first North American overland adventure vehicle designed for off-grid escapades.
In collaboration with a leading automotive electronic company, REDARC Electronics, this new adventurer is equipped with state-of-the-art technologies. This off-road truck has a built-in camping platform, an alloy canopy, and two dual battery systems.
The dual battery system is completed with REDARC's top technology - which displays power consumption monitoring, temperature, water levels, and accessory control. TDR off-road wheels and rear airbags are used which ensures ultimate passenger safety while driving along uneven terrain. The batteries can be charged using the built-in solar rooftop panels - making this vehicle a sustainable choice. While the stored solar energy is also used to power an air compressor, a fridge, and a sine wave inverter - used to charge laptops and other household devices.
