Overland Expo Collaborates with Toyota on Overlanding Vehicle

overland expo and toyota

Overland Expo has announced its first-ever overland vehicle build, based on the 2021 Toyota 4Runner TRD Off-Road. Partnering with Toyota Motor North America, Overland Expo and its staff will outfit the 4Runner, transforming the 4X4 SUV into what it described as the “Ultimate Overland Vehicle.”

“Toyota’s 4X4s are synonymous with overlanding, thanks to their quality, durability, reliability, and capability,” Overland Expo said, adding that the TRD Off-Road model “is ideal for adventures thanks to its powerful 4.0-liter V6 engine, 9.6 inches of ground clearance, standard factory-installed locking rear differential, and CRAWL Control — among other impressive features.”

“There’s no doubt an overlander could drive a Toyota 4Runner TRD Off-Road off the showroom floor and confidently complete a backcountry journey. However, modifications — like those we have planned — both personalize as well as enhance the vehicle, enabling overlanders to travel further, longer, and more comfortably,” said Lodestone Events Marketing and Communications VP Jessica Kirchner. “That’s why we are so excited to partner with Toyota and use the 4Runner to inspire overlanders to build their own Ultimate Overland Vehicle.”

The project will take place over the course of the next several months and include several aftermarket suppliers such as REDARC, MagnaFlow, and Garmin, as well as assistance from MULE Expedition Outfitters.

The finished Ultimate Overland Vehicle Build will be revealed on Aug. 27th at Overland Expo Mountain West in Loveland, Colo.
