A modified Ford F-150 that broke through the ice and sank into arctic waters in Canada during an expedition will be recovered by divers and an airlift helicopter.

The truck was one of the first to drive over the ice from Yellowknife to Resolute, Canada, as a test run for the Transglobal Car Expedition that kicks off in 2024 with the goal of becoming the first to circumnavigate the globe through both poles with wheeled vehicles.
The customized Ford was built by Iceland’s Arctic Trucks, a company known for converting pickups and SUVs into extreme snow machines. The outfit became world-famous after several appearances on the BBC show "Top Gear" and plans to start producing vehicles in New Hampshire for sale in the U.S. and North America next year.
