SEMA 2016

SEMA serves as a launchpad for modified cars pushing the limits of performance and design, from both big players and relatively small tuning houses. Check out the best low-slung sports cars and racers from this year's show.

The 2016 SEMA Show wrapped up in Las Vegas on Friday, leaving in its wake piles and piles of photos of wild custom cars, trucks and wheeled vehicles best described simply as "other". We've sorted through to bring you some of the best in show.

Getting in on the van conversion trend that's spawned everything from off-road nomads to mobile offices, Toyota has presented the Extreme Sienna minivan at SEMA 2016. Like a private jet, the upgraded minivan is all aerodynamic tech outside and embellished comfort inside.

When it introduced the ZH2 fuel cell truck a month ago, Chevy dazzled the world with pictures of its impressive Colorado reconstruction, but it withheld most of the juicy details - power, torque, full dimensions, performance figures, etc. It's filled in the blanks at SEMA 2016.

An $85K full-size SUV with real-world off-road chops built around a comfortable and luxurious cabin, the modern Toyota Land Cruiser is a contradiction on four wheels, but an ever-intriguing one. Toyota has made it even more intriguing at the 2016 SEMA Show.

The new sixth-generation COPO is the latest in a line of factory drag cars from Chevrolet, but it's not the only race-oriented Camaro to be revealed at SEMA this week. The company will also showcase a test car loaded up with concept parts produced through its SS Drag Race Development program.

Mopar has shown its hand at SEMA, whipping the covers off six show cars for its stand at the Las Vegas Convention Center. Highlights include a Challenger, a retro-modern Jeep and a RAM Power Wagon.​

Having set out a snooze-worthy pair of concepts in the leadup to SEMA, Chevrolet has finally found its mojo. The Colorado Z71 Hurley Concept has been designed with surfers in mind, and uses a clever bed liner to deal with all the wet, salty gear you could possibly throw at it.

SEMA plays host to some incredible, full-on concept cars every year, but Chevrolet has decided to keep its offerings low-key. It'll be taking on the world's biggest aftermarket trade show with warmed-over versions of the Malibu and Cruze kitted out with a set of parts from Chevrolet's own catalogue.

Hyundai is preparing an all-out onslaught for SEMA 2016, having taken the wraps off a Veloster to join the set of four-wheel drives it showed off last week. The Gurnade Concept takes the basic Hyundai Veloster, and works in a wide-bodykit and some choice engine modifications.
