[Eli]

[Mandrill]

Looks cool but it is still russian. Russia is not know for it's automotive prowess

 

[Zebo]

It looks like a fiberglass kit car slapped on an american 1/2 ton pick-up truck a chevy would be my guess. Nothing original about it

Ya, it looks like crap. I'd rather have aN H1.

Actually, there is a link to an English teaser site.

It looks like a turbocharged Hummer with armor plating. The perfect vehicle for a Russian mafia boss!

Seriously, I wish that I had one of these in GTA3 Vice City. I could have kicked ass with it in the "grab and run" missions.

 

[Bulk Beef]

Probably has a Trabant engine.

 

[Jadow]

yeah, but its from the same country that brought us the SU-27 Flanker, the greatest fighter jet ever build. (though the electroncis sucked)

[Jadow]

i think it has a GM in it, I think GM owns this company.

 

[natopotato]

But OMG I WANT ONE OF THESE.

In soviet russia, the humvee wants YOU

[filmmaker]

At least it looks somewhat original.

There's something about it that I like... I just can't put my finger on it.

 

[Jadow]

i don't think its a chevy silverado with some fiberglass on the outside.

 

[Looney]

That looks sweet actually. But imagine the repair costs on that thing. How many people are proficient in Russian mechanics?

 

[TommyVercetti]

Why does it look so much like a Lamborghini Cheetah?

/edit. Yes you just had to be mister fancy pants and use a linking system that screws up when it gets quoted.

 

[halik]

more russian crazyness

looks like a combination of a probe and and that litte honda car

 

[Zebo]

Here Is the REAL russian version of the Hummer.

 

[SuperTool]

OK, I read Russian.
This is a bulletproof truck up to B32 bullet, whatever the hell that is. It says it blocks AKM and NATO G3 shots as well. You can get it with upto 100mm thick windows. 10mm armor, 200mm floor anti-mine "sandwich", blocks upto 300g trotil explosion, sniper rifles, etc, something about 9mm rounds, 7.62 calibre etc. It's actually modeled on the hummer with mostly GM parts, and uses a Vortec 8.1L 340hP GMC engine, also available with 6L Vortec, and 6.6L Duramax diesel. Top speed 180km/h
Transmissions options: 5 speed manual, 4 speed auto, ZF 6-speed manual, Allison 5sp auto
Vented Disks all around, ABS, 150L gas tank, quadrasteer, optional xenon projector lights, most GMC options, airbags.
The most armed option weighs 4200kg, which is something like 9000lbs. 10s 0-100km for the light configuration.
Looks like a cool truck to me. Not that useful in the US, but in Russia, armor is useful . Prices between 66K for no thrills no armor version to 180K for super armored, luxury version. You can also get stretch option, which is even more. I think it takes several months to make one.

I am guessing it qualifies for the SUV tax exemption.
