The ten longest vehicles ever built

The ten longest vehicles ever built

In the world of motoring some people live by the belief that bigger vehicles are better, and some of these vehicles really live up to that.

Car manufacturers like to brag about the size of their cars, Telegraph reports.

And while cars can get bigger in the modern world, it's fair to say in the past, car firms have never been shy about taking risks when it comes to the length of their vehicles.


Weekly motoring magazine Autocar limited its list to any vehicle that can be purchased for non-commercial use by the public.

Listed below are 10 of the longest vehicles ever built.

10 – Maybach 62

The Maybach 62 S was introduced in 2006 as the fourth car in the Maybach range.

At 6.1 meters long, the Maybach 62 offers plenty of space with an interior of 2.6 meters.

9 – Nissan Titan

The Nissan Titan is a full-size pickup truck made in the USA since 2003 – with the longest version built being the rough-terrain-specific XD Crew Cab PRO-4X at 6.20 meters.

8 – Cadillac Fleetwood Seventy-Five

This large vehicle from Cadillac was designed to be luxurious, so perhaps it was no surprise that the Fleetwood Seventy-Five was over 6.4 meters long.

7 – Toyota Tundra

The Tundra model from Toyota is probably the longest vehicle that the Japanese company offers.

Its SR and SR5 models come with a double cab and a 2.4 meter long cargo bed that takes the vehicle to 6.41 meters in length.

6 – Mercedes-Maybach Pullman

This car was the result of Mercedes' decision to revive the Maybach brand in 2014.

At 6.49 meters long, the Pullman is longer than some American pickup trucks.

5 – Ram Heavy Duty

Ram Heavy Duty is the largest vehicle the brand has ever made for non-commercial customers with its 2500 and 3500 models coming in at a staggering 6.62 meters in length.

4 – Chevrolet Silverado HD

With a length of about 6.75 meters, the Chevrolet Silverado HD also enters the range of this list for the length of cars.

3 – GMC Sierra HD

This monster, the GMC Sierra HD is 6.757 meters and ranks third as the longest car.

2 – Ford S-Series Super Duty

At 6.76 meters long, the Ford F-Series Super Duty ranks as the second longest car ever produced.

This is the longest American vehicle you can buy non-commercially.

1 – Volkswagen Grand California 680 

With a whopping length of 6.8 meters, the Volkswagen Grand California 680 ranks first as the longest car ever produced.

With this vehicle, the Germans have put the Americans and their trucks to shame with this offer.

Although it may look like an RV, the vehicle qualifies for inclusion on this list because it is a non-commercial vehicle.

It is obviously based on a van and thus remains to be placed on the long list of cars. /Telegraph/
