Japanese tuning company ESB Style has borrowed the rugged appearance of the Toyota Land Cruiser to give the practical and compact-sized Toyota Roomy mini-MPV a makeover for camping enthusiasts. The first appearance of the customized CLS-Fox Landc Roomy may look a little lost in identity, but a detailed watch reveals more than meets the eye.
The urban has been tweaked on the outside – both on the front and the back – to resemble the Toyota Land Cruiser, while the interior has been fashioned to give a couple a place to stretch their legs mid-journey, or an individual with enough space to curl up for a night. With further tweaks like a hard-shell rooftop cargo box, raised suspension, and rugged tires; the humble van is ready to take on the toughest terrains. And if you will, even spend a night out in the wilderness.
Designer:
The LandC Roomy features an aggressive front grille extension reminiscent of a Land Cruiser and a sporty bumper with a body-colored diffuser. ESB Style has upped the game for many enthusiasts toiling in their Roomy on the city streets. Now, with a makeover, courtesy of the enhancements, the mini MPV can take to the roads beyond the city. It has been lifted up 3cm using a suspension lift and is provided with Toyo Open Country 165/65R15 rugged-terrain tires.
Capable of producing 97 horsepower and 103 lb-ft (140 Nm) of torque from a 1.0-liter three-cylinder turbo engine with an optional 4WD, the Landc Roomy has been reworked on the inside. The cabin is devoid of seats and fitted with a cushy mattress sized 61 inches long and 49 inches from side to side. Of course, not the fanciest for a couple to spend a night in, but if it’s just a solo rider, it should seem convenient.
The rugged styling and beefed-up ground clearance provide just enough practicality for the ESB Style Roomy to ditch the city roads and venture beyond, but it is not a you’d want to decide your adventures with. That said, with the foldable mat for a bed, the minivan becomes a makeshift camper for a day ride or a spontaneous overnight trip where you wouldn’t mind cramping up just because the wilderness is too consuming. If you’re interested, the CLS-Fox Landc Roomy conversion kit which includes the Land Cruiser-inspired front grille extension and rear bumpers, foldable bed, suspension kit, and wheels is priced at ¥295,000 (about $2,000). You can also buy the products individually.
