Karlmann King: And The King Stands Tall

The Gigantic SUV For Sand Dunes And Lower Temperatures

It is often said that when you know what you want and make a deliberate effort to go for it, you make life easier for yourself and others. In this case, the Karlmann Kind understands that its role isn’t to skid along the smooth tarmac roads of the city but rather to tackle environments that insanely demanding. This is why.

A car that gets minimum ground clearance of 300 mm isn’t simply running away from potholes,it believes in its power to do the unthinkable. Someone put it this way and we think they were down tight right, “the Karlmann King’s actual purpose in life is to carry its passengers across the desert and other extreme environments in complete luxury.”

If this wasn’t so,there would be no need for its creators to tell us that it can efficiently operate in temperatures ranging from -40 degrees Celsius to 90 degrees Celsius. Mind you, this vehicle wears a Ford F550 4×4 chassis, has Ford’s 6.8L V10 and thrives on a six-speed automatic transmission.

Get this right, it is made to run on premium fuel and the V10 should produce up to 400 hp. Of course, you expect to get as much luxury from this pricey SUV but you also get 40-inch 4K TV, PlayStation 4, satellite navigation, mood lighting, refrigerator, coffee machine, and a custom remote to control all these and more. It also features an iPad-based computer workstation that flips out of the armrest with the touch of a button and a flip-out bar.

It is more evident than ever that we are living at a time when automakers are teasing our brains a little to the far, no problem. We welcome all this and whatever shocker they might add to our already mesmerized brains.
