The Mercedes Clase X modified by Chelsea Truck is called The Dark Destroyer. Discover why!

The pick-up Mercedes-Benz Clase X was discontinued because it did not achieve the expected sales. Yet there are still those who take an interest in this model and work on it to offer a more striking version for anyone who wants to enjoy it. For example, Chelsea Truck has modified one of these models and offers a transformation that is worth seeing.

The name given to this intense version matches it perfectly. It is The Dark Destroyer, and its body is completely black, so the name is more than fitting. The vehicle has a price of 49,999 pounds, equivalent to about 59,500 euros.

A very aggressive look

The pick-up based on the Mercedes-Benz has been fitted with the Project Kahn styling package, which features wider wheel arches, door protection, a ventilated hood, and bumpers also painted black. The color is repeated across the rest of the exterior elements of the car, such as the 22-inch RS-XF wheels.

Another standout element of the pick-up is the polarized windows, which can also be installed to be bulletproof. On the rear bed a hard cover can be fitted, allowing this part of the truck to be better protected. At the front, the halogen headlights are retained, which stands out since the inclusion of LED technology in this area was expected.

Inside, the dark theme of the conversion continues. The upholstery is black with decorative details and red stitching to create a striking contrast. The standard equipment is kept, so the driver will enjoy features such as a navigation system, rear-view camera, Bluetooth connectivity, an 8-speaker sound system, and automatic lights and windshield wipers.

The original engine is also retained, a 2.3-liter turbodiesel block producing 193 CV, although it is not the top-of-the-range option available for this model. It is not a new model, as it was manufactured in 2019 and has covered 21,726 kilometers. But it is a good example of everything that can be done with this model, whether purchased directly from the customizer or by taking your own pick-up to their workshops.
