The Urban Warrior Flying Huntsman 6x6 will be equipped with all of the custom and luxury touches that customers have become accustomed to seeing in other Urban Warrior 110's, including a supercharged 670-hp 5.0L Ford Coyote V8,  6-speed automatic transmission with shift-on-the-fly transfer case, limited slip differentials, upgraded suspension, wheels, and tires, a premium sound system that includes navigation, rear-view camera and Bluetooth®, upgraded soundproofing and carpeting, heated and cooled leather Recaro® seats, and leather-upholstered surfaces.  The first Urban Warrior version of the Flying Huntsman is expected to be delivered in late 2016.

Along with their own version of the Flying Huntsman 6x6, Urban Warrior continues to pursue its vision of the iconic Land Rover Defender.   Using latest-model Defenders, Urban Warrior removes the 2.2L, 122hp diesel engine and 6-speed manual transmission that comes with it, and replaces it with a 5.0L, 435 hp Ford V8, and 6-speed automatic, with shift-on-the fly transfer case.  Upgraded suspension, wheels and tires complete the base package and customers can choose from a wide array of options and luxury touches.  To learn more about the Urban Warrior and their heavy-duty off-road version of the 2015-16 Ford F150 called the Baja Warrior, visit www.UrbanWarrior4x4.com .
