A car-mad Sheikh has built the World’s biggest Hummer H1.

The incredible vehicle boasts a height of 21.6ft (6.6m) and is fully drivable.

At 46ft-long (14m) and 20ft-wide (6m), the monster truck was commissioned by Sheikh Hamad Bin Hamdan Al Nahyan.

It will take pride in its place in his Sharjah Off-Road History Museum in the UAE.

The Sheikh, a billionaire member of the Emirati royal family, holds the Guinness World record for the largest collection of 4x4 vehicles at 718 models.

Jaw-dropping scenes saw his latest ride, the so-called Hummer H1 X3, being driven to the location on public roads.

Built on the frame of U.S Army LARC-LX steel-hulled amphibious cargo vehicle, it runs with four diesel engines.

Capable of a top speed of 32km/h, the museum says it is “three times bigger than a normal Hummer H1 by scale and 27 times by volume.”

The interior is spread over two floors, both of which are still being worked on.

The first floor has stairs, a toilet and a sink. The second features a majlis (a private place where house guests and friends are received and entertained) with a 360-degree view. It also contains the steering cabin.

The X3 will be the latest addition to the Sharjah Off-Road History Museum, which is situated 30km north of Dubai. The attraction is based on the Sheikh's love of all-terrain vehicles.
