Cutest Russian truck is also very capable – Video

The SHERP is Alexei Garagashyan’s brilliant invention. It weighs just 2,866 pounds dry, so while it might only have a 44.3 horsepower 1.5 liter Kubota V1505 four-cylinder diesel linked to a five-speed manual, it will still do 28 mph on land, or 3.7 mph in water, depending on the wind. It will also crawl at up to 9.3 mph in first gear.

 

With its giant custom tires and the skid-steer, it can also turn in its own length, which is 111.5 feet. And as long as the trees ahead are at least 82.63 feet apart, this crazy two seater will find a way through them.
