LEGO Technic 42022 Hot Rod

LEGO set 42022 Hot Rod, released in 2014 as part of the Technic line, has 414 pieces. Its inventory breaks down into 90 different lots, across 12 colors.

Set 42022 is part of LEGO Technic and focuses on a clearly defined automotive subject: a hot rod, a modified car with a strong mechanical character.

The build therefore centers on the vehicle itself, its Technic construction style, and the overall look associated with a hot rod.

The model can be used for display alongside other Technic vehicles, as well as for play based on the completed car. In a collection, it sits among Technic car sets and is distinct from construction machines, trucks, or other specialized vehicles through its custom road-car subject.
