The Novator armored vehicle manufactured by the Ukrainian armor company in a short time became a hit not only in the Armed Forces and special forces units of Ukraine but also abroad.

In all but armor protection, the civilian version will match its military counterpart.

The Novator-CV will have a 6.7-liter eight-cylinder turbo diesel with a power output of 300 hp, which will provide 895 N * m of torque. The top speed of 180 km/h. The all-wheel-drive five-seater will be equipped with a 6-speed automatic transmission, air suspension with variable clearance, hydraulic dual brakes with ABS, a powerful shock-proof and moisture-proof electric winch with a length of 30 meters.
