The Kaengsaeng 68 is a light off-road vehicle produced in North Korea by the Pyongsang Auto Works from 1968. The vehicle is based on the GAZ-69 jeeps, and was built from knock-down kits send by the Soviet Union.
In 1972 the vehicle also started getting produced at the Sungri Motor Plant, under the Sungri 4.10 and Sungri 4.25 names.[3]
It is estimated that the original Kaengsaeng 68 jeeps stopped production somewhere in the 1980s;[4] however their Sungri variants may still be in production, as no information has been released, due to North Korea's enclosure.
The payload of the Kaengsaeng 68 is 1 ton.
