KISSIMMEE, Fla., July 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- There are Land Rovers, and then there is Project Wilder, a hand-crafted California Land Rover Station Wagon by ECD Automotive Design with subtle styling cues from original series Land Rovers and later Land Rover Defenders, purpose-built to rule every road and outmatch every expectation. Conceived under California skies and brought to life in ECD’s Rover Dome, Project Wilder is more than a custom vehicle, it’s an untamed, 700+ horsepower thrill ride and ECD’s most powerful off-road build to date. View video of Project Wilder View images of Project Wilder From the outside, Project Wilder strikes a presence that is simultaneously classic and ferocious. Cloaked in Eastnor Green eggshell paint with subtle Nara Bronze accents, it pays tribute to heritage. Its 20-inch Kahn Mondial Retro wheels, custom-painted to match, sit under widened arches with a posture that says: this vehicle doesn’t follow paths, it cuts them. Beneath its iconic silhouette is a supercharged GM Blueprint V8, pushing 700+ horsepower through a 6-speed Magnum T56 manual transmission, because no journey worth taking should ever be on autopilot. The Borla Sport dual exhaust, complete with a push-button sound control, lets the driver choose between stealth and storm at will. “It’s equal parts fighter and private jet,” said ECD CEO and Co-Founder Scott Wallace. “Project Wilder is designed for the client who’s looking for more than a weekend cruiser, they want something visceral, personal, something that defines what it means to be remarkable.” The chassis, coated in Raptor Liner for all-condition resilience, rides on ECD’s proprietary Air Ride Suspension, offering seamless transitions from mountain trails to Malibu pavement. When it’s time to stop the beast, Brembo performance brakes with Eastnor Green calipers keep things firmly in control. Inside, Wilder is warm, refined, and unshakably custom. The cabin is wrapped in Buffalo Distressed Cuoio leather with horizontal stretched honeycomb stitching, complemented by Sapele walnut wood trim, a theme that flows from the shifter to the rear cargo area like an handcrafted heirloom interior. RECARO Orthopeds front and rear provide unmatched support, and every surface, from Alcantara-lined headliners to handmade billet controls, tells a story of obsessive craftsmanship. For lack of better words, Wilder’s interior is jaw-droppingly stunning and exudes a premium level of luxury that isn’t typically associated with a former field truck. Touchpoints like a NARDI Kallista wooden wheel, Focal premium audio, a panoramic roof with sunroof integration, and advanced ICE systems, including CarPlay, digital mirrors, blind spot assist, and dual subwoofers, elevate the cabin into something part luxury lounge, part adventure basecamp. Project Wilder is a machine that refuses to compromise. A rolling contradiction: raw power wrapped in refined detail. British soul with American thunder. Built for California highways, Pacific trails, and every borderless moment in between. Whether you call it a commission, a collector’s piece, or simply a dream with keys, one thing is certain: Wilder lives up to its name.
