What's Next: CJ3B EV from ICON

Editor-in-Chief

Jonathan Ward is at it again. His previous vehicles were based on the original Toyota Land Cruiser, but his new design is inspired by the old Willys flat-fendered CJ3B. This new project, nicknamed “The Dog,” will be a lot more affordable than previous ICONs, with kits priced from $15,000 to 35,000 and turn-key production vehicles starting around $45,000.

But wait, there’s more. Jonathan is also developing a pure EV variant with four in-wheel hub motors and a driver-controlled variable crawl ratio for off road versatility. How cool is that? Check out the ICON CJ3B ride page for more details and pics! And we’ll be sure to show you a lot more when The Dog debuts at SEMA.
