Extreme AMPHIBIOUS Russian offroad vehicle: Aton-Impulse VIKING-2992
4x4xAMPHIBIOUS, VIKING combines the best of extreme off-road with internal floatation and water-jet powered amphibious capability.
The ATON IMPULSE VIKING-2992 is a unique special purpose vehicle, ideal for heavy industry, exploration, arctic use, flood-relief, NGOs, rescue and emergency services. VIKING is the only amphibious off-road vehicle in the world to have passed through certification to meet UN/ECE regulations for unrestricted ON-ROAD USE.
VIKING's world-leading amphibious capabilities are based around its purpose-designed flotation construction, centrally mounted engine and powerful water-jet propulsion enable it to ford open water at speeds of up to 15 km/h. The vehicle's wheels may be optionally engaged while in amphibious mode, providing unique ability to cope with shallow water and to transit the challenging littoral zone, where other vehicles commonly become stuck in soft mud.
Off-road, VIKING is overwhelmingly superior to comparable amphibians, with cross-country ability akin to tracked vehicles. High maneuverability, turn-over resistance and endurance provide safety and comfort in remote or hazardous areas.
With a curb weight of only 1.46 tonnes, riding on giant 1300x600x533 tires, VIKING's exceptionally low ground pressure enables it to "float" on soft snow surfaces and avoids damage to sensitive environments. VIKING has independent pneumatic front and rear wheel suspension with adjustable clearance and a tire air-pressure adjustment system operable from the cab while driving the vehicle.
VIKING's is designed for security and endurance rather than high speed, which in any case is hazardous on rough terrain. Top speed on-road is 50 mph at 16.8 mpg; off-road at 11.8 mpg, currently limited by the tires (cost $700 each) speed rating. ATON IMPULSE is bringing out new, higher-speed rated, custom tires, as well as bullet proof tires. More powerful engine models will be fitted in future models.
The VIKING-2992 will for the first time be available for international purchase in late 2012.

Большой тест-драйв (видеоверсия): Renault Koleos
После продолжительного перерыва в видеоверсии "Большого тест-драйва" появляется автомобиль марки Renault. В честь этого события решили привлечь к участию в шоу Викторию Колосову. Пришлась ли по душе Рустаму Вахидову конструкция багажника, что понравилось Сергею Стиллавину на заднем сиденье, почему Виктория Колосова считает авто унылым и действительно ли эта машина отличная, как сказал Семён?

Koleos to the Kimberley
Renault Koleos proves the theory that compact 4WDs can do the big trips. Fully fitted out for long term and long distance travelling, this Koleos did 17,000km around Australia from Sydney to Alice Springs, up the Tanami to the Bungles, around the Gibb River Rd in unseasonal wet season, down the west coast to Ningaloo, in to the Pilbara, down across the Nullarbor and up to Maree in horrendous wet weather (worst for 30 years). One flat tyre, 7.7l/100km fuel average, and a bloody good time had by all! ...except for seeing James Price Point for possibly the last time in pristine state - fight to stop the WA Gov't destroying this amazing place!
