The Apocalypse HellFire has gained significant popularity, particularly in Florida, with recent sales at Barrett-Jackson fetching substantial sums. Jay Leno’s endorsement further validates its status. While various Jeep Gladiator 6×6 models exist, this particular one stands out as the epitome of excellence.
Under the banner of Apocalypse 6×6, the company specializes in transforming vehicles. And they have made a mark with the HellFire. They are also known for their RAM TRX 6×6 conversion, and speculation suggests their involvement in the creation of the Bronco 6×6.
This bespoke Jeep Gladiator has undergone extensive modifications, establishing its unique identity as the Apocalypse HellFire. The customizations extend from the frame, tailored to accommodate extra wheels, to the entirely reimagined rear bed. The distinctive wedge-like design characterizes the HellFire, though other variations exist.
Significant modifications to the front bodywork include a custom windshield frame, short fenders, and a large hood with vents. A noteworthy addition to this build is the exclusive Oculus Tron front Grumper, seemingly inspired by the game Battlefield 2042.
The new fiberglass nose section integrates a continuous LED strip, producing 15,000 lumens and giving the HellFire an appearance distinct from regular Jeeps. The color scheme, featuring a 3-part epoxy Kevlar coating in “sandstorm,” with hints of black on the fenders and grille, evokes an army surplus aesthetic reminiscent of Iraq.
An exclusive feature of this model is the incorporation of a night-vision/thermal image camera capable of detecting heat signatures up to 5 miles away and providing 360-degree articulation—an enticing and intriguing addition.
The Apocalypse HellFire boasts six substantial 40-inch tires mounted on 22-inch SFJ rims with an appealing copper finish. A powered side step facilitates entry into the ruggedly styled leather-clad custom interior, equipped with a 12-inch infotainment system.
The Jeep 6×6 conversion, priced between $150,000 and $200,000, offers a range of engine swap options. Potential buyers can opt for a diesel, a robust 500 horsepower LS, a Hellcat motor, or the standard 392 Hemi V8 generating 485 horsepower.
Florida emerges as a hub for 6×6 creations, evident in the presence of the Raptor 6-wheeler when Shmee150 visited. Owned by Joseph Ghattas, who also owns a Jeep dealership, both Apocalypse Manufacturing and South Florida Jeeps contribute to the state’s reputation for innovative 6×6 conversions. The recent showcase of a 6×6 conversion on the new Toyota Tundra pickup further underscores this trend.
But that’s not all. Because else we have here an article about mad Mercedes-Benz X-Class 6×6 with widebody. I guess you will like that truck as well.
