The Viking 29031 SUV comes from Russia to take on any terrain, even across water

SUVs are in fashion all over the world. These are vehicles that can go almost anywhere and that let their occupants travel both over rough terrain and through city streets, thanks to their innovative designs. But there are also others that can tackle any terrain, however complicated and demanding it may be. Vehicles designed to move across any terrain and that are truly incredible cars.

One of these is the Viking 29031, an off-roader that comes from Russia and is one to keep an eye on. It is a off-road vehicle with amphibious capabilities, which allows it to go even on water. A robust design, with tyres capable of handling the most rugged terrain, and considerable load capacity, which allows it to carry up to seven people or a load of 850 kg.

This capability can be used by emergency and rescue teams to access flooded areas or places where no other type of vehicle is able to drive. It is certainly not a car for everyday city driving, and it has the countryside and difficult terrain as its natural habitat.

We have no information about the engine that powers this off-road and amphibious car, but we know that once it enters the water it moves thanks to a pressurised water jet that allows it to reach a top speed of 12.5 km/h. Its length of 5.25 metres is impressive, but its design gives it a turning radius of 8.6 metres, quite suitable for its size and the terrain it has to cover.

This car is designed to travel across the arid, freezing lands of the Russian Arctic, where not every SUV, however well prepared, can cope with the terrain.
