New MILITEM FERŌX500 extreme utility vehicle

To mark the official opening of its first dealership in Germany, AUTOHAUS ULMEN in Düsseldorf, MILITEM presented, as a international première, its new super sporty model: the FERŌX500 features a V8 HEMI® of 6.417 cc (392 cubic inches) delivering 470 CV at 6.000 rpm.

FERŌX500 gives life to the new EUV (Extreme Utility Vehicle) category; extremely powerful units suited to any conditions. The model is the maximum expression of MILITEM’s sporty vision and delivers extraordinary performance, both on-road and off, with the chance to choose between two different types of tire.

The FERŌX range was already well represented by FERŌX and the FERŌX-T pick-up, an authentic Sport Utility Truck (SUT) that combines all the benefits of an SUV with that of a pick-up; both are available also in the ADVENTURE version. Now, with the arrival of the new FERŌX500, there is an embarrassment of riches to choose from and clients looking for pure performance have a new benchmark as this model boasts 0-100 acceleration of just 4.5 seconds!

FERŌX500 is the fifth model from MILITEM’s luxury range: it is the extraordinary result of a collaboration between designers, engineers and skilled craftsmen. This combined knowledge has brought together the utmost in luxury, technology and performance, for which MILITEM is renowned.

Grit, personality and bags of adrenalin is what distinguishes this new, range-topping MILITEM. It stands out for its sporty edge, power, performance and unique engine sound. It also represents a breakthrough in Europe for the adoption of a 6.4-litre V8 engine: the FERŌX500 derives from the Wrangler Rubicon 392, a model sold exclusively in North America.

All it takes is to listen to the engine sound, one perfectly captured by the MILITEM Dual-Mode exhaust set-up with 4 matt-Black tailpipes, to comprehend the ‘music’. The day promises to be a satisfying one!

Torque from the 6.4. V8 reaches 637 Nm at 4.300rpm, unique in a car of this type, and 75% of this is delivered low down in the rev range. Traction, meanwhile, is provided by 4WD. Transmission is an 8-speed automatic TorqueFlite controlled by paddles set behind the steering wheel, a system already introduced by MILITEM on the FERŌX-T.

FERŌX500 provides, on the one hand, 40% more performance than the 3.6-litre V6 FERŌX and boasts supercar acceleration. On the other hand, it maintains all the characteristics of a true offroader thanks to adjustable suspension re-engineered by MILITEM.
