On July 29, 2025, ECD Automotive Design (NASDAQ: ECDA) introduced its latest creation, Project Brownie, a highly modified Land Rover Station Wagon that combines ruggedness with supercar performance. This bespoke vehicle features a powerful 650 horsepower engine, setting a new standard for what an all-season daily driver can be.
Painted in a striking Nara Bronze Matte, Project Brownie is equipped with a hand-built 6.2L GM LT4 Supercharged V8 engine, designed to deliver both power and refinement. According to Scott Wallace, Co-Founder and CEO of ECD Automotive Design, “Project Brownie is the kind of build that represents the evolution of the Land Rover. It’s nostalgic, but not stuck in the past — modernized for everyday use and built to the absolute highest standard.”
A Daily Driver with Performance Edge
Constructed on a fully Raptor-lined chassis, Project Brownie is engineered for real-world usability. It features a Borla Sport Dual Plus exhaust system that allows drivers to modify the sound of the vehicle with a simple button press. The inclusion of BFG All-Terrain tires and ECD Air Ride Suspension ensures that it can handle various terrains, from snowy mountain paths to city streets.
Inside, the vehicle boasts Corbeau Trailcat seats wrapped in premium Spinneybeck Sabrina leather, providing both comfort and performance. The 2+2+4 seating layout includes four inward-facing jump seats, making it versatile for families. Modern amenities like remote start, blind spot assist, and a digital rearview mirror seamlessly blend vintage aesthetics with contemporary technology.
The vehicle’s performance is further enhanced by an 8-speed automatic transmission and a torque-biased limited-slip differential, facilitating smooth highway driving and strong acceleration off the line.
Statement of Capability
Project Brownie stands out not just for its performance but also for its striking design elements. The 18-inch matte black Sawtooth wheels, X-Lander grille, and custom-painted accents declare its capability and appeal. Additional features include a 6-point external roll cage, panoramic rear quarter windows, and an advanced JL Audio sound system, enhancing both the adventure and overall driving experience.
