ANI tweeted a video with the defence minister behind the wheel of an Indian Army ATV. The ATV sports a tall roll cage to provide protection to its occupants. It also features beefy and tall profiled all-terrain tyres, and a front bumper with tow hooks. The ATV has a capacity to seat 4 occupants, and also has footsteps so troops can stand on its sides holding the roll cage in necessary situations. The dashboard of the seat also has a fixed handlebar on the passenger side to grab on whilst the vehicle goes over the difficult terrains near the borders of our country.
