This is the Technoimpu­lse Rocket Z. It is a mid-engined nine-seater diesel 4x4 from Russia. And at a whisker under five metres, it’s the length of a Land Rover Discovery, but it’ll house more passengers and go further off road. While the £65,000 Rocket Z costs about the same as an Alfa Stelvio QV, it has a mere 82bhp from its mid-mounted, Hyundai diesel engine. You can upgrade to 99bhp if you’re worried about getting places quickly, but in the places this’ll traverse, you won’t need speed. There’ll be no one else there to keep up with.
