The Zibar is a family of high-mobility four-wheel-drive all-terrain vehicles designed and built in Israel. Ido Cohen of Ido Off Road Center developed it in 1998, designing the chassis and frame himself and fitting commercial parts such as General Motors V8 engines, transmissions and axles. Its monocoque body follows the Generic Vehicle Architecture standard used by the British Ministry of Defence, and the driveline sits inside the hull to raise ground clearance. Variants include the Zibar Mk 1 and Mk 2, the military Zibar M, the Z-Mag tactical utility vehicle that can seat up to fourteen people, the Trooper pickup and the armoured Zed. About thirty vehicles went to the Mexican energy company Pemex in 2013. In 2020 Israel Aerospace Industries took over the manufacturing operations and began building the family at the ELTA site in Beer Sheva, and in 2022 the Israeli Ministry of Defense ordered thirty Z-Mag vehicles for special operations units.
