Called Shaman, the 8-wheel SUV is manufactured by Avtoros from Russia.
When seeing the Mercedes-Benz G63 6×6, many people thought this was a real big SUV. However, compared to Shaman, an 8-wheel SUV manufactured by Avtoros from Russia, the G63 is still very small. Shaman was created by the Russians apparently with the purpose to conquer all types of terrain.
The SUV has a large body thanks to 8 wheels, each tire has a height of 1,185mm, giving a ground clearance of up to 450mm. According to the manufacturer, Shaman weighs up to 4,000kg, but the engine used for the car is not for the purpose of helping the car move. The main purpose when this vehicle was created was to carry as many people as possible wherever they wanted, in any weather condition.
Shaman uses a 3.0-liter F1C Iveco diesel engine, with a capacity of 170 horsepower, only 1/3 of the Mercedes-Benz G63.
