MERCEDES-BENZ CREATES UNIMOG CONCEPT
Posted 6th June, 2011 in Miscellaneous | Leave a comment
Mercedes-Benz Special Trucks department has created this crazy-looking Unimog concept to mark sixty years of the iconic truck. Based on a U 5000 chassis, the “60 Years Mercedes-Benz Unimog” features an open-topped cab – as seen on the very first Unimog, a modern-day Mercedes-Benz grille and some interesting five star wheels.
Bertrand Janssen and his design team are said to have taken inspiration for the lucid paintwork from the poison dart frog, as the two are both “extremely mobile both in water and on land.”
If a Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG ever witnesses the detonation of a gamma bomb, we’re guessing it’ll look something like that. But only if it gets very, very angry…
