Rezvani Tank: The $178,000, 500 Hp SUV That Belongs In Blade Runner
The Rezvani Tank is essentially a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited with a Hemi swap and the styling of a law enforcement vehicle from a futuristic sci-fi movie.
“Tactical Urban Vehicle – An Extreme Utility Vehicle built for any off-road and on-road challenge.” That’s how the makers prefer to describe the “thing” that you see here. Dubbed the Tank, this vehicle is Rezvani’s conceited Xtreme Utility Vehicle (XUV). But look underneath the clothing which makes its look straight out of Fast and Furious 10 (Are they going to take it space?) and the Rezvani Tank is actually a heavily-modified Jeep Wrangler Unlimited.
Undoubtedly the most hardcore, most capable vehicle the automaker has ever built, the Rezvani Tank is powered by a massive 6.4-liter HEMI V8 mill, churning out 500 hp of power and 430 lb-ft of torque. With a body-on-frame design, the vehicle also features an on-demand all-wheel drive system.
The exterior is so futuristic that they may have got themselves a product placement role in Blade Runner 2049. Too bad that the Ryan Gosling-Harrison Ford sequel bombed at the box office despite being a well-made movie. Anyway, the flashy design and those chunky tires would have ensured that the Rezvani Tank stood out in that bleak future world. The suicide doors would have allowed a couple of dramatic low angle shots of baddies getting out of vehicle in full tactical gear.

There is space for five inside and unlike the flamboyant exterior, the interior design is quite reserved. Nope. No holographic projections. But you do get padded seats, climate control and an infotainment system.
The Rezvani Tank is street-legal worldwide and can be serviced at any Jeep/Dodge dealership. Its takes the company 12 weeks to build one and you can place an order by depositing $10,000.
