The story behind the Mod Rod
The Mod Rod brings a unique twist to the world of diecast collecting with its distinct size and style. Released in 2026 as part of the Hot Wheels XL assortment, this car is much larger than standard models found on store shelves. Designed by Eric Han, it captures the essence of classic hot rod culture but at an impressive 1/43 scale instead of the usual smaller ratio. The body features a matte Moody Blue finish that gives it a subdued yet striking look under display lights. Collectors appreciate this release because XL cars offer more detail due to their larger physical footprint. It stands out in any collection simply by being bigger and bolder than standard Hot Wheels vehicles.
