VEPR ((ウクライナ語:автомобіль Високо-Ефективної ПРохідності)) is a Ukrainian multi-purpose off-road vehicle designed and assembled by the Kremenchuk Automobile Assembly Plant. (The name is a pun:Ukrainian: Вепр, ''wild boar''.) The designers' goal was to create an SUV-type vehicle which would have the same terrain ability traditionally reserved for larger cargo vehicles, such as the KrAZ and Ural. The patent has been received for the passenger-cargo vehicle. The per-unit price of the VEPR is estimated to be between $50,000 and $250,000. ==Description== Fuel consumption is said to be modest for a vehicle of this size, with 14 liters per 100 km in urban areas, and 11.5 liters per 100 km on highways. This makes the VEPR more fuel-efficient than the smaller Hummer.〔 (VEPR Parameters )〕〔 (В Киеве представлен первый украинский бронированный внедорожник ) // Podrobnosti news agency March 13, 2006〕 Standard modification includes: * Adjustable pressure tires for use on all terrains * A/C and heat independent of the engine * Drum brakes of closed type, for harsh temperatures and driving over ford crossings, can clear up to 1.5 meter water level * Stainless steel frame and parts * BTR-94 wheels 〔 (Interview with a director of VEPR, LLC.
