Avtoros Shaman

The Avtoros Shaman is a four cylinder diesel engine 8x8 all-terrain vehicle, built by Russian company Avtoros.[1] The vehicle's design includes the ability to carry 8 passengers, the use of low pressure tyres, an optional extra that can allow it to navigate on water, a "captain's chair" driving position, and three drive modes - both on and off-road capabilities, and a "crab" mode that allows the car to move sideways.[2] Its design was intended to allow it to navigate all forms of terrain and be an ideal choice for outdoor adventures, with each vehicle costing over €150,000. As the vehicle takes two months to be manufactured, buyers have the option to customize their purchase during this stage.[3]
