About this episode
Join Overland Journal Podcast host Ashley Giordano as she sits down with Emil Grímsson to discuss the origin of Arctic Trucks in Iceland and how he turned the Top Gear Arctic Special into a career of polar exploration.
CEO of Arctic Trucks Polar and Arctic Trucks International
Grímsson touches on his role during the Trans Global Car Expedition, the world’s first wheeled surface navigation through both geographic poles, and how lessons learned in previous expeditions landed him where he is today. The conversation continues with a discussion around the differences between the Arctic Trucks branches in Europe, the UK, and North America, and why the polar regions draw Emil back time and time again.
