1965, Steyr-Daimler-Butcher developed a new off-road vehicle with a deadweight of 1 ton on the basis of Havlin off-road vehicle, which was officially put into production in 197 1 year and renamed Pinzgor. Steyr has its own characteristics in the design of off-road vehicles. Pinzgauer SUV not only comes from Havlin SUV, but also is very similar to Havlin SUV in structure and appearance. It is basically an enlarged version of Havlin SUV, except that the engine is moved from the rear to the front. 197 1 year, Pinzgauer off-road vehicle was put into production. For more than 30 years, Steyr has only continuously improved the engine and gearbox, while other designs, such as the central tubular frame and suspension system, have remained basically unchanged.

In 1970s, the rivals of Pinzgauer SUV in the same period were Land Rover FC 10 1 and Volvo 4 140 in Sweden. As FC 10 1 and Volvo 4 140 developed 6x6 SUVs at the same time, Steyr also launched its own 6x6 SUV to strengthen its competitiveness.

What a strange name! But this is really good stuff. There are 4*4 and 6*6 versions. From the appearance, the lines of this car are angular, and the pig nose front is very similar to the design of the former Soviet Union or the Eastern European Group, but it is produced by Steyr-Daimler-Boucher of Austria. The only off-road vehicle that can be compared with it is the Mercedes-Benz Unimog off-road vehicle, but they are not of the same grade, and the tonnage is quite different. Pinzgauer is just a one-ton SUV.

In addition to the central tubular frame protection transmission device, there is also a steel guard plate at the front end of the car. The engine is installed in the carriage, and the power enters the pipe from the outside by the Z drive system, which not only facilitates the maintenance, but also maximizes the clear height of the vehicle bottom and enhances the traffic. Put it down. Gear (low gear) design is adopted between the axle and the wheel, so that the ground clearance is as high as 335 mm The central spine is independently suspended and fully driven. This driving mode can only be seen in Tetora except here, which is really not easy, and only in this way can the highest level of suspension driving ability be guaranteed. All-alloy central tubular frame is adopted. The transmission system is hidden in the tubular frame. The drive system is completely waterproof and sealed. This structure has high cost, but also high reliability, and only requires extremely high processing technology. Therefore, only Austria, Germany and other countries with high processing level can guarantee the reliability of its structure.
