Default Klitschko Got Him Self a Big Car

For anyone who doesnt know Klitschko is an ex heavy weight boxing champ, now retired.

He is 6 foot 7 so he got himself a Ukrainian "vepr", the car weights 3 tonns, max speed is 140km/h, fully armoured, actually comes equiped with electronic counter measures to protect it from guided missles Its 5m long and 2.5m high. And it only costs 70 000$ (base price I figure, withouht the goodies)

*This actually is a military transport vehicle.

No one likes it? I actually think it looks half decent being a military car.

12 (kilometers per liter) = 28.2257501 miles per gallon

19.6012154 mpg =12 liters per 100km

3.17006461 gallons/62.1371192 miles

sounds like estimated 100 kph expected highway usage...

Some corrections

"вес его около 5 тонн, грузоподъемность 2 тонны, расход топлива — 12 литров на 100 км","

overall weight 5 tons, capable of carying 2 tons, and "usage of fuel" 12litters for 100km"
