In this latest masterpiece from Larry Chen, we witness the birth of a truly mind-blowing creation: the DAR prototype, a beastly luxury pre-runner born from the bones of a VEAR Range Rover. With its rear engine, IRS, and 37-inch tires, this vehicle is no ordinary off-roader—it's a compact powerhouse reminiscent of a Class 1 unlimited buggy. But what truly sets this machine apart is its heart: a stage three underground racing motor plucked straight from a Lamborghini Huracan, promising a jaw-dropping 2,000 horsepower. And let's not forget the twin 68mm Precision turbos and 4-inch titanium exhaust that complete this symphony of power.

But with great power comes great responsibility—or in this case, the challenge of taming those 2,000 horses to prevent the DAR prototype from wheelie-ing into oblivion. Larry and his team have a clever solution in mind: utilizing uhmw material underneath to keep this beast grounded while still delivering a heart-pounding experience. And speaking of experience, the DAR prototype doesn't skimp on comfort either, offering a pressurized cabin with all the creature comforts you'd expect in a luxury vehicle. From a dry carbon body to custom trailing arms and intricate metalwork, every detail of this build screams precision and dedication.

As Larry delves deeper into the design and engineering behind the DAR prototype, it becomes clear that this isn't just a vehicle—it's a work of art on wheels. The aluminum body seamlessly bolts onto a full tube chassis, showcasing meticulous welding and custom floor work that form the backbone of this off-road marvel. With Motec systems for power management and a unique jump start feature, every aspect of the DAR prototype has been carefully crafted to deliver an unparalleled driving experience. Larry's passion for SUVs and long-roof vehicles shines through in this build, pushing the boundaries of what's possible in the world of off-road machines.
