Rezvani Motors has announced its latest tank for 2026. This third-generation model is the most consistent expression of the company’s core idea of a powerful, go-anywhere tactical vehicle, building on nearly a decade of development. Founded in 2013 by Ferris Rezvani in Irvine, California, Rezvani Motors has always operated outside conventional segments. The brand first gained attention with lightweight, high-performance sports cars like the Beast before focusing on SUVs designed for extreme performance.
Introduced in 2017, the original tank shocked the automotive world largely because it looked different than anything else on the road. Its stealthy, aviation-inspired post-apocalyptic design language (think radar-detecting F22 Raptor) was aggressive, but also introduced real off-road hardware and optional ballistic protection. The second generation introduced more powerful engines, significantly improved the quality of the interior, and also increased the Tank’s presence in popular culture through appearances in films, music videos, and elite private collections.
For 2026, the tank features a completely new, sharper exterior, especially a new, more angular instrument panel, without losing its recognizable, characteristic silhouette. The angular bodywork serves real purposes. A high beltline has bulletproof glass. Flat, plate-side panels allow for integrated ballistic protection. The front structure houses reinforced ram bumpers and winches. What looks extreme is based on impact resistance, airflow management and durability in harsh environments. The integrated high-performance lighting system further increases user-friendliness and functionality.
You can configure it with three powertrains. A 3.6-liter V6 is standard, but most attention goes to the optional 6.4-liter V8 with 500 horsepower or the supercharged 6.2-liter V8 from the Dodge Demon that produces up to 1,000 horsepower. This top option catapults the tank into the performance class of super sports cars, while retaining the all-wheel drive and high ground clearance.
As for hardware, two special off-road packages include high-clearance suspension, 3.0-inch FOX shocks, and off-road tires. Four-wheel drive allows you to switch between on-road efficiency and full off-road traction, which is convenient when this vehicle needs to be used in daily use or remote access work.
The tank separates itself from the field by safety. Rezvani offers an optional ballistic armor package that includes bulletproof glass, armored body panels, Kevlar-protected fuel tank and battery, and underside blast protection. You can also add run-flat military tires, smoke protection, EMP protection, FLIR thermal night vision, and reinforced ram bumpers. These are integrated systems designed for occupants who value personal safety, disaster preparedness or high-risk travel.
It’s only once you’re inside that you’re reminded that this vehicle is built on a Jeep Wrangler platform. The upright seating position, the arrangement of the switchgear and the proportions give it away. Still, Rezvani reimagines the experience with more than ten available seat designs, leather interior, a console-mounted safe, and built-in survival gear. Electrified door handles, magnetic latches, a PA and intercom system, and pepper spray dispensers, allowing residents to manage threats without having to open doors or windows.
Pricing for the 2026 Rezvani Tank starts at $175,000 without options. The new tank joins the Dark Knight and Vengeance SUVs as well as the Retro RR1 and the aforementioned Beast and includes a total of five models in Rezvani’s portfolio.
