Carlex Design is a Polish company that specialises in taking over-the-top cars and making them even more ludicrous.

Its newest project is a six-wheel version of the Mercedes X-Class, finished in carbon-fibre.

Named EXY Monster X, Clarlex has extended the wheelbase and added a third axle, while also fitting fender flares, carbon-ceramic brakes, massive Bridgestone tyres and an X-shaped tailgate.

This concept has been designed as a safety car, which explains the inclusion of roof-mounted emergency lights plus a front and rear winch.

There’s no word on the powerplant, but expect a tweaked version of the turbo-diesel V6 or hopefully a twin-turbo V8.

The interior design is yet to be seen, however, judging by previous creations, it’ll be striking.

It’s only a concept at the moment, but no doubt cashed-up clientele are already lining up for their own Monster X.

Would you take this over a six-wheel G Class? Let us know in the comments.

Following a passion shared by his father and grandfather, Mitchell’s love of cars really kicked off with his Godfather’s purchase of a new Mazda RX-8. Exposure to that car changed his world forever, leading to an RX-7 obsession. To feed his automotive addiction, Mitchell decided to become a motoring journalist and made his mark at several high-profile motoring publications before landing at CarsGuide. While he is a rotary loyalist, Mitchell also has a massive love for Aussie muscle cars, and dreams of one day getting behind the wheel of a Charger R/T E49 (if anyone will let him). His other passions include Queensland, and spending Saturdays with the boys.
