The Americans are a very difficult people, and have always tried to surpass other countries at least in some way. So it happened this time. They set a new record in car size. Some are chasing environmental beautification, others are constantly discovering new technologies, and America decided to take everyone in size and created the largest jeep.
The SUV was presented to the public, which has no competitors in terms of size. This event took place in Chicago, at one of the car dealerships, Alton Truck showed the audience their creations. Compared with this car, even the largest
Hummer H1 jeep seemed surrounding small. In order to translate this work into reality, they took the Ford F - 650 as a basis, it is worth noting that the weight of this machine reaches 12 tons, which in itself is quite a lot. For the convenience of boarding passengers, 7 doors were made, and the number of seats is provided for 8 people, of course, if you try hard, then in such a huge car you can put 2 times more people. However, this
largest jeep in the world could not fully justify its abilities. Hoping to see something new and powerful under the hood, many were disappointed. It hid a conventional six-cylinder engine that runs on a diesel engine and has a capacity of 230 horsepower, a five-speed automatic transmission has also long taken root around the world. But that's not all, with a cost of $ 200,000, this best jeep has a top speed of just 120 km / h. Of course, from such a giant I would like to see more.
In comparison,
Ford Excursion is not so bad either. Naturally, he did not deserve the title of the largest jeep, but unlike our new product has more obvious advantages. It is worth noting that it was produced in both diesel and gasoline versions. In the second case, its power was 314 hp and a speed of 154 km / h. With such power, the truth and fuel consumption are rather rather big, for example, when traveling in the city you will need up to 30 liters of gasoline per 100 km. He is also one of the largest of its kind. True, in Russia it is very difficult to find, and the production of this type of car stopped in 2005. Also expected and the arrival of new Knight XV, which were created in Canada and have a length of 6 meters. Of course, the cost of such a car is quite large and exceeds the new product by 3 times. However, armored glasses are installed on it, which speak of its purpose and use for specific purposes, and the armor is 6 cm.
Creating the largest jeep, Alton Truck and its manufacturers did not even think that someone could get ahead of them. Although there is an even larger model of the machine, it is true that it was created for an individual customer, who is none other than an
Arab sheikh. The creation of this car can not have analogues, so it is one of a kind. A machine with a height of more than 6 meters is intended for personal use by the sheikh. It is worth noting that with such a huge size the movement is not difficult at all and you can get into the car quite simply, the landing height is not so great, so passengers easily get inside.
You can judge which car is the largest in the world according to different criteria, and for each there is a unique car brand.
