The Pinzgauer is a versatile family of high-mobility all-terrain vehicles, including 4WD and 6WD models, originally developed by Steyr-Daimler-Puch in Austria in the late 1960s.

They were manufactured in Surrey, England by BAE Systems Land & Armaments, continuing production throughout the 20th century. In 2000, the rights to the Pinzgauer were sold to Automotive Technik Ltd (ATL) in the UK, which was later acquired by Stewart & Stevenson Services, Inc.
