Cold Start. Stormproof. This is Sherp the Ark

Anonim

Sherp isn't entirely foreign to us — we've come across its ATV model years ago. THE Sherp the Ark , which appears to be nothing more than an ATV with a rear module attached.

But take a closer look: despite being articulated, the two modules of Sherp the Ark work as a single unit. Yes, we can even turn off the front module and be powered by the rear module only. The front module can turn on three axes (as if it were an airplane), which allows, for example, to raise the front to cross ditches 2 m wide!

The rear module stands out for being able to assume different configurations. From a transport module for up to 20 passengers, to a cargo module with a crane included, another as a tank, another for medical purposes and still another to serve as a base “camp”. A work or scientific research machine to go to the most hidden corners of the Earth.

Powered by a small 2.4 l diesel with just 74 hp and 280 Nm, Sherp the Ark can carry up to 3400 kg, reach a maximum speed of 30 km/h on land and a maximum speed of 6 km/h in… water.
