Arctic Trucks Heritage

For over 25 years, Icelanders have been modifying vehicles to improve their performance on difficult terrain in severe climate where the roads are often unsafe, difficult and even dangerous. The strongest motivation is the desire to enjoy Icelandic nature in winter as well as summer. Another factor is the demand by utility companies and the general need of getting from one place to another in rough circumstances.

The origin of Arctic Trucks can be traced back to 1990 when Toyota in Iceland started to modify 4WD Utility and Sport Utility Vehicles. This business has over the years taken us a long way, building up great experience and knowledge that has given us a world renowned expertise in the field of SUV modifications. We do have a great respect for Nature and we encourage our customers to tread lightly and avoid travelling over any terrain that could possibly be damaged by the vehicles.
Arctic Trucks now operates independent from Toyota distributor, working together with several car importers, as well as individuals.

Arctic Trucks vehicles are modified 4WD with the purpose of meeting the strictest requirements under the severest possible conditions, without any compromises in requirements for appearance and driving properties. Our employees are absolutely the best people in the business, with many years of experience in modifications of various 4WD vehicles.

The cars have all the conveniences and driving properties that can be expected in modern cars, but also have the special advantage of being able to go where others don’t dare or simply can’t even dream of!

From the start Arctic Trucks has focused mainly on two customer groups for special converted vehicles. The first group consists of people interested in travelling in unknown terrain, outdoor people looking for more all-round use and more comfortable and safe way to travel. The other group consists of utility companies and organizations, such as telephone companies, power and electricity companies and rescue squads that are in the need of powerful vehicles that can be depended on.
