What, for a Traveller ATV?
Yep.
Caveat - I designed it as a teenager, far too long ago. Check it for accuracy, but it'll be in the ball park.

The ATV cab seats 3 crew in front, with the central gunner's seat on a hydraulic ram lifting to the pintel, and 5 passenger seats behind. A connecting door behind the central passenger seat gives access to the living accommodation behind. The cab and living space are independently sealed and life supported. The vehicle can tow a trailer containing more fuel or other cargo.
Now I know there's at least one error, cos it has a water speed but no water transmission listed, but it'll give you an idea and you can tweak it to suit you.
If you find errors, let me know - it'll save me the trouble of correcting it, which I haven't got around to in the last three decades.
PS. If you meant stats for the Smart Tank, ignore the above - nope, sorry not statted anything like that.
Yep.

for a real life mil-spec version, check out the VIking ATV, based on a norwegian family of ATVs used in the artic, but battle proven in the deserts and rocks of Afganistan!
I've ridden not in the Volkswagen Snowcat, but the regular winter ATVs. What a ride going up and down hills on a steep incline. Crazy stuff.
This is a Russian version, but I've been in the American equivalent;
Imagine going up a hill at a 30 degree incline, or driving over what you could have sworn was a cliff, and have all your skis and luggage slide forward. Fun times
