Based on the parts in the pics, it is a HMMWV derivative. The whole chassis, running gear, wheels, tires, and interior / exterior layout is basically the same as a HMMWV. It may have been designed and made in Spain, and the dimensions may be a little different, but the HMMWV was first and this is based off of its proven design. It is basically a Spanish HMMWV. Many countries have done the same. Turkey, the Phillipines, Japan, China and others all have their own home-grown HMMWV versions too.

HMMVV brought a lawsuit against URO for this reason and lost it I donīt know if it went in USA or in Spain.
