The NAMI-050 "Squirrel"- compact concept car. Under that name (index IMZ-NAMI-A50) was developed jointly by NAMI and Irbit Motorcycle Factory.
The combination of the rear boxer engine (based on the motorcycle M-72) air-cooled, wagon-type car, independent spring suspension wheels, tires small diameter allowed at small length of place in the back four.
To access the front seat served as a forward end face the door and to the rear - side door on the right side.

“Makers of death vans,” USA Today reports, “say they save money for poor localities that would otherwise have to pay to construct execution facilities in prisons or court buildings. The vans ensure that prisoners sentenced to death can be executed locally, closer to communities where they broke the law.”

You’ll probably notice the weird angle this thing is parked at – that’s because the front had a very wide track compared to the rear – but, when parked, the front wheels could be brought in closer – to make it easier to park. When this happens, it raises the front of the car up into the air.
