The UAZ Patriot (Russian: УАЗ Патриот [UAZ-3163]) is a mid-size SUV with a body-on-frame construction produced by the UAZ division of Sollers in Ulyanovsk, Russia. It was introduced in 2005 and replaced the older UAZ Simbir (UAZ-3162). Extensive use of newer parts, large carrying capacity, good off-road capabilities and an affordable price (<US$5,000) predicted good sales in Russia; 12,011 units were sold in the year 2007.
The SUV accommodates five adults and can carry about 200 kilograms (440 lb) of cargo.
