Investing in the Future

VOLAT is constantly improving the product quality and service and thinking about future prospects.
In late June, at the company’s initiative, tactical vehicles MZKT-600103 and MZKT-600203 were sent to the United Arab Emirates to participate in SUMMER TRIALS 2016 organised by the General Staff of the UAE Armed Forces.
During July–August, VOLAT together with Al Badie Trading Establishment, an agent in the UAE, was involved in trials where competitors were European manufacturers.
During the trials, tactical vehicles MZKT-600103 and MZKT-600203 overcame the distance of over 2,000 km on various types of road surface: asphalt roads, cross-country, sand and mountainous terrain. The conditions were extremely harsh – the hottest period of the year was chosen for the tests, the air temperature sometimes exceeded 50 °C.
The most difficult stage was surely driving through sand dunes. Extremely dusty conditions and, accordingly, reduced visibility required skills in driving through rough areas of sand barchans. The MZKT-600103 and the MZKT-600203 showed their manoeuvrability, mobility, good cross-country ability and controllability.
Representatives of the General Staff of the UAE Armed Forces are currently carrying out an assessment of all parameters of the participating vehicles and analysis of performance characteristics. A report summarising the results of the trials will be prepared subsequently. Participation of VOLAT tactical vehicles in the trials in such difficult conditions will no doubt be a stepping stone to the future and help to strengthen the company’s position in the UAE market.
