It's one thing to own a top-of-the-line off-road SUV, but it's quite another to own a full-on luxury tank. The Ripsaw EV2, short for Extreme Vehicle 2, is a high-speed super tank that's specially designed for the public and extreme off-road enthusiasts.
Made by Howe and Howe Tech and built on the design of the fastest ever dual track vehicle, the Ripsaw MS1, this luxury tank boasts a diesel engine with over 600 horsepower, alongside 12 inches of off-road suspension. Its track design also makes it capable of conquering almost any type of terrain or obstacle with ease.
However, a leather seat interior with a touchscreen entertainment system is where the EV2 luxury tank really stands out from its military peers. Those who can afford the EV2 will have to be patient though, as this high-end handcrafted vehicle takes up six months to manufacture and depending on any additional features or packages included, it can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to own.
