The Toyota Mega Cruiser stands out as a unique and remarkable vehicle that often goes unnoticed today. This automobile could be considered Japan’s response to the iconic Hummer. Originally designed for military purposes, the Mega Cruiser quickly garnered interest from the public once Japan’s Ground Self-Defence Force received their first few units. People began to demand a civilian version of this incredible truck. Measuring over 16 feet in length and 7 feet wide, it offered ample space for up to six people and a cargo capacity of up to 1,650 pounds. As a result, it found great utility as a remote rescue vehicle, and even emergency services made use of several customized units. However, the greatest appeal for buyers was the opportunity to own the largest and most capable off-road truck ever produced by a Japanese manufacturer.
Although the Mega Cruiser was initially exclusively released in Japan, it can now be found in various international markets that treasure all-terrain trucks, such as Russia, Australia, and the United States. Acquiring a Mega Cruiser, however, demands a considerable investment. In 1995, the vehicle launched with an approximate cost of $233,000, accounting for inflation. Remarkably, even today, when these vehicles occasionally become available for sale, they can still command a similar price. Production of this SUV continued until 2001, during which just over 100 civilian Mega Cruisers were assembled.
