It's commonly mistakenly called KrAZ while the only thing that connects it to said factory is the city of origin, Kremenchuk. VEPr was a separate company that collaborated with Iveco to design this vehicle. It was originally meant for police and army but no orders were received, so later the unarmoured VEPr-K Sport was made. Kyiv City Auto-Moto Club planned to enter the Africa EcoRace on it but eventually it only appeared on several motor shows. As I recall, only two of them were made, the model was designed in 2002-2006 and the project somewhat existed until 2017. Unfortunately the further fate of these vehicles is unknown.
