Built from a modified Turbo Diesel, Toyota Hi-Lux, the Hornet Special Operations Vehicle was designed to offer off-road mobility in desert conditions. Lessons learned from Arctic Trucks were applied to the Hornet due to the similar traction challenges in a sandy environment. They use 315/70 R17 tires which offers a wider footprint for grip and lower ground pressure. Additionally, they have an onboard tire inflation/deflation system.
