Seawise Giant is considered to be the biggest sea vehicle in the world, but in the ranking of the largest ship by gross tonnage, she is behind the four French- flags, Batillus class ULCC’s ultra-large crude carriers. They were delivered by Chantiers de l’Atlantique at St. Nazaire in the period 1976-1979. Batillus and Bellamya were ready in 1976; Pierre Guillaumat was delivered in 1977; and Priarial in 1979.
Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG 6×6

Burlak
Jalopnik has described this vehicle as “the new best Russian truck in the universe.” The six-wheel amphibious truck is a sight to behold.
This car can go just about anywhere, and Russia was testing it to carry 10 researchers to the North Pole. The 7-meter armored truck weighs three tons. It has all the amenities, like a fully stocked kitchen, shower, and toilet, which are all necessary to survive in the North Pole.
Sherp ATV
The Sherp is absolutely affordable if you consider the full range of features that it comes with. For just $50,000, you can get your hands on what Jalopnik describes as “the best truck in the universe.”
The car has a top speed of 27.9 mph on land and 3.7 mph on water. The tires are self-inflated, which is meant to help the car climb over obstacles. This car is able to run on water because there is a device that automatically drains the water from the body of the vehicle.
Globe Caravan
The Sheikh must have had several dreams of an apocalypse. That’s the only explanation as to why he commissioned two gigantic caravans. The globe caravan was reportedly commissioned because he likes to spend time in the desert and the trailer provides the perfect getaway.
This globe caravan has nine bedrooms and nine bathrooms spread over three floors; it is indeed one of the biggest cars in the world.
Marauder
The Marauder is one of the best military vehicles accessible to civilians. The car has been in production since 2008, and there have been over 300 units produced ever since. The South African company mostly sells these vehicles to world armies and wealthy individuals, with the Middle East being a prime market.
The Marauder doesn’t come cheap, as you’d have to part with $523,000 to get yourself one. It is the perfect doomsday vehicle, as it can accommodate 10 people and can drive over just about any terrain.
Boeing 727 Jet Limo
This was one of the car projects that excited auto enthusiasts in the 2000’s. The car came about when some guys decided to convert a Boeing 727 into a gigantic limousine.

The Triple E is a gigantic construction, and it’s just about as tall as the Empire State Building! The dead weight tonnage of these ships is 165,000 metric tons, and they’re the size of a small city.
Despite the efficiency, the engines still consume about 21,000 gallons of diesel fuel per day! That huge size comes in handy. Fully loaded, it can carry over 18,000 20-foot cargo containers! As consumer demand grows, it’s useful to have huge, fuel-efficient vessels like this carrying freight across the oceans. The Maersk Triple E is among the biggest trucks in the world, and they’re truly impressive to see in person.

Antonov an-225 Mriya
This big vehicle, cargo plane, was designed by the Soviet Union’s Antonov Design Bureau in the 1980s for strategic military airlifts. The Soviets were known for building large aircraft, and the Mriya is no exception. At 83,82 meters long, with a weight of 285 tons, a wing span of 88,39 meters, and a cargo space large enough to hold 50 cars, Mriya is both the largest and the heaviest aeroplane on Earth.
Gustav Gun
One of the biggest vehicles ever made was the Gustav Gun, a series of guns by German forces prior to the start of World War II, and they were incredibly huge. The vehicle itself had to be huge because the shells it fired were among the heaviest and largest calibre ammunition vehicles ever produced in the world. The gun itself weighed in at 1,330 tons, and it was around 47 meters in length and about 18 meters high.
The Gustav gun required a small army of men to operate, and it could really only fire between 12 and 14 shots per day because reloading was a major process. The shells were 800 caliber each, and each shell weighed over 10,000 pounds! They could reach a distance of up to 45 kilometers away, and when they impacted, they would leave an impact crater that was 9 meters across!
The Wothahellizat
The Wothahellizat can be described as the perfect motorhome. It was launched in 2006. The Wothahellizat was priced at $263,000 and had everything you could ask for in a home, plus it was on wheels.

Commander 8×8
An Australian family of eight commissioned one of the largest campers, a monstrous vehicle ever made in the world, in order to explore Australia’s most remote regions for months at a time. Designed by Australian luxury expedition vehicle manufacturer SLRV, it serves as a fully functioning house on wheels. Dubbed the Commander 8×8, the vehicle is 40 feet long, two stories tall, and can sleep up to 10 people. SLRV did not disclose the final cost of the camper but previously estimated that the price would fall between 670 thousand and 1.37 million dollars.
Prelude FLNG
Part of a joint venture between Royal Dutch Shell, KOGAS, and Inpex, the Prelude is the world’s first floating liquefied natural gas project. It was built to access new natural gas fields at sea that were previously either too difficult or too expensive to develop.
At 488 meters long—longer than the length of four soccer fields—and 74 meters wide, the Prelude FLNG is the world’s largest floating offshore facility, as well as the largest ship ever built.
Dodge Power Wagon
The Dodge Power Wagon first hit the assembly line in 1945 and has been in production for the last 73 years. The Power Wagon was primarily manufactured for the military. The first civilian Dodge Power Wagon was introduced in 1946. This truck had an 8′ cargo box.
The big-block V8 vehicle engine could tow up to 8,700 pounds without any problems. The power wagon name came to an end in 1981 in favor of the now popular Dodge Ram. The first generation of the Dodge Power Wagon has become collectibles.
NASA Crawler
As the name suggests, this one of the world’s biggest vehicles is used to transport spaceships from the assembly point to the launch area. The crawler weighs 2,721 tons and has 4 pairs of tracks located on either end. In terms of dimensions, the vehicle measures 40×35 meters. There was a complete overhaul in 2003 for the NASA crawlers to include 16 traction motors. The vehicle can output up to 2750 HP and run on two 750 Kw/h generators.

Bagger 288
This is another movable, largest machine ever built in Germany. This Bagger 288 was the biggest land vehicle ever built when it was completed in 1978. It weighed 13,500 metric tons, and it is estimated to have cost around $100 million, which would be a lot more in today’s currency if you factor in inflation.
Just like the FGO, the Bagger 288 was built with the main objective of getting rid of the overburden in coal mining. The machine can excavate up to 240,000 tons of coal daily. In terms of size, the Bagger 288 is up to 220 m long.
