    The BV206 is designed for the Swedish military to run in Swedish dense forests with marshes, creeks, small lakes and sometimes 3 feet of snow. I have never driven one but I have been sitting in the back, and the young recruits driving them seemed to never slow down for anything. I always had a sore ass (sore whole body actually) after those rides.

    I was a mechanic in the Swedish army and had a lot of fun with the Bv 206. At that time it had a Ford V6 petrol and a Mercedes transmission. I remember when you hung on to your seatbelt when driving down really steep hills. If you are going to try it, you should use the brake when you are on the crest and with the brake applied, accelerate down. Don't forget to fold down the mudguards on the front carriage after off-road driving because you can get stone chips on your windscreen when stones bounce up and hit the rear carriage and bounce forward and hit your windscreen.

    1:26 This is not a rescue vehicle.I t was developed for the Swedish army as a troop carrier and transporter but later it proved useful for some civilian uses.
    It comes originally with a Ford Cologne V6 or a Steyr Turbodiesel for armies which do not use gasoline engines.

    The thing is that the Swedish Armed Forces was built around conscription during all of the 20th centry. A vehicle that needed specialist technichans is not a good fit in total war with the eastern neighbour. Bandvagn 206 (littarly Tracked Vehicle 206) by Hägglunds (ä = a in ash) was a follow up to Bolinder-Munktell (bought by Volvo) Bandvagn 202. The replacement is called Bandvagn 410, is armoured and is still built by Hägglunds (now owned by BAE Systems) and the US Army has also placed a order on them.

    We had one of the military versions when I did my military service with the the Arctic Rangers in Finland in the early 1990:s. It had great performance in the snow and the marsch lands. I will never forget when we tipped the trailer over with 6 military dogs and handlers inside. It was mayhem. Swearing soldiers and dogs trying to fight each other. I put my arm between my dog and another one. Luckily I had the winter uniform on and I escaped with minor bite marks from my fellow soldiers dog. Still today impressed with the axel between the trailer and the main wagon. It could twist 60 degrees withou any problems if memory serves right.

    First off, Nathan needs to be doing MORE OR vehicle trips. His energy and joy are 10 steps higher than when he is tinkering around with the eco car reviews. As he said, best day at the office ever. 2nd, that Hagglund takes it all to the next level of cool. Unimog at the Ranch doing a tiny car drag around was not very thrilling. Was hoping to see it conquer the OR course.(yes in the snow) I would like to see Jay(or anyone)get his hands on a Sherp. Put the Sherp up against a Hagglund in say a swamp. Or anywhere terrain grip is slick to non-existent. Or even a lake. If it is legal there in CO. to drive amphibious vehicles into the waters. (not legal in a lot of states)😊

    Simple to build and service, reliable and effective. That's basically been the core philosophy of the entire Swedish arsenal for the longest time. Not a lot of flair.

I just like a slight bit of nonsense. Like heat for your feet.

      It gulps fuel. That is why those are usually used only by militaries, rescue services or something like remote industrial service people. People whose solution to "we are about to run out of fuel" is well have Frank the friend just drive another full tanker truck here.
      Very capable vehicle, but not cheap to run.
      I have seen many many people comment it would be cool to own one, but if one really doesn't absolutely need the "I will swim and crawl through a wet swamp bog without breaking sweat" there is way cheaper and easier to maintain options.

      I don’t disagree, but I think the implication is simply tank = treads

      @@DartmouthOutingClub the equality function is order-independent: one side equals the other, so swapping sides doesn't change the meaning; "1/2 = 0.5" is the same as "0.5 = 1/2". You apparently meant to state, not tanks and treads are equivalent, but that 'tank implies treads', and even that would presumably have been intended to be 'tank implies tracks'. The symbol for "implies" is "⇒", and can be approximated by "=>".
      So, "tank ⇒ tracks" would make sense, but "tank = treads" does not.
      And people calling vehicle such as the BV-206 a "tank" are obviously thinking that having tracks implies that it is a tank, which of course is nonsense.

      The portal gearing reduces the torque that the final drive has to handle, so the ring gear can be smaller.
