Not just about raw power, this beast wears its armor with pride—off-road suspension and skid plates come standard, ensuring it can tackle obstacles without flinching. Exclusive AEV branding and design elements signal to all that this is no ordinary pickup; it’s built for extreme adventures.


For our customers at Tom Tepe Autocenter & Car Country looking for unmatched capability paired with distinctive style, the ZR2 Bison AEV proves itself time and again as the ultimate off-roader companion.
