Imagine a classic Hummer with Arnold Schwarzenegger driving around Hollywood. But then an SUV parks next to you, its side doors open and… you see something painfully familiar and dear. Firstly, these doors were taken from the no less legendary “Shishiga” or simply GAZ-66. Secondly, from the rear they open against the movement, like in some Rolls-Royce. In general, when buying such an “American” car, you won’t have to wait for years for spare parts from overseas – a regular car shop near your home will do.

Structurally, the copy and the original are even similar: frame, fiberglass body, wide central tunnel. The Russian Hummer even has rear view cameras and an automatic transmission. What car did these parts come from? The bloggers of the PrivetTachka channel not only rode this fabulous unicorn and shared their impressions, but also found another interesting copy “in Russian”: Gelandevagen in the Maybach G 650 Landaulet version. In this same issue you will see the first review of the latest Chinese hatchback Avatr 12. In general, turn on the new issue and see everything for yourself.

By the way, it turns out that Chinese manufacturers also know how to develop real SUVs: look at this selection of Chinese rogues and make sure that not only crossovers are made in the Middle Kingdom. And in this article we found out whether the revived GMC Hummer EV is worth waiting in a huge line, and in general, what’s wrong with the new symbol of automotive America? It will be interesting! /m
