The Tokyo Auto Salon will feature this unusual Orochi.
Even though production ended in 2014, the Mitsuoka Orochi is still one of the most bizarre looking cars ever made by an automaker in the world. Sphere Light, a Japanese manufacturer of aftermarket headlights, will display a bizarre example of this sports coupe with a Liberty Walk widebody kit at the Tokyo Auto Salon.
The Liberty Walk body kit includes a front splitter under the bumper, which is a significant improvement over a standard Orochi. The low-slung vehicle has large fender flares to increase width. Side sills run to the wider pieces at the rear axle. The bumper is attached by a massive wing. A pair of black dual pipes replaces the original one on each side.
This Orochi has a racing-inspired color scheme that’s white in front and has a yellow, lightning-bolt-shaped stripe that runs over the sides and rear of the body. The exterior is covered in many decals that represent different brands. The wheels have Y-shaped spokes and are black.
To promote the company’s products, the headlights are equipped with Sphere Light bulbs.
The cabin is not yet shown. The Orochi comes with a pair of sport seats that are bolstered from the factory. The driver holds a three-spoke steering column and examines large, analog dials. The center stack has a pair vents at the top, a small radio display and two dials.
It is not known if the Orochi will have any powertrain modifications. Toyota’s 3MZFE 3.3-liter V6 is the original powertrain. It’s from the early 2000s models such as the Sienna minivan and Camry, Lexus RX 330, Lexus RX 330, Lexus RX 330, etc. The mid-mounted mill produces 231 horsepower (172 Kilowatts) as well as 242 pound-feet (228 Newton-meters). The only transmission option in the Mitsuoka was a five-speed automatic that drove the rear wheels.
The Orochi concept was first presented by Japanese boutique automaker at the 2001 Tokyo Motor Show. In 2006, the production version was launched.
