Latvian automaker Dartz has teased a new extreme SUV ahead of its official unveiling on 19 October 2014.

Called the Black Shark, Dartz’s latest creation is apparently based on the Mercedes-Benz GL63, and can be purchased with either the GL63’s V8, or the GL65’s V12. According to the company, the V12 can be tuned to a staggering 1119 kW at the owner’s request.

As the pictures, shows the Black Shark won’t look much like a Merc GL-Class, but instead will sport a very aggressive, militaristic look. It also has a Kevlar-titanium body, fingerprint recognition and door handles that can shock those seeking unauthorised entry.

We’ll post more info as soon as the Black Shark makes its debut on 19 October.
