The Zach-Terrain Vehicle (ZTV) is an all-terrain vehicle built by Zach Varmitech. It's designed to be a high-speed racing machine that can endure the rough landscape of the African savannah. The ground mode is powered by a cheetah while the flight mode is jet-powered. It was first built and introduced in the season 1 episode "Cheetah Racer."

Information[]
- In "Cheetah Racer," Zach challenged Aviva to a racing competition across the African savannah to determine who the better inventor is. For the rules, Chris declared that both vehicles must be ground-racing vehicles and no using live animals to power their machines. While Aviva started working on the Cheetah Racer, this was when Zach built the ZTV to use as his racing vehicle.
Halfway through the race, Martin discovered that Zach was using Blur to power his machine and set her free, stopping the ATV in its tracks. Frustrated, Zach activated the machines' hidden function; instantly the cockpit broke away from the rest of the racer and flew off towards the finish line. Martin confronted Zach to tell him it was against the rules, but Zach pointed out a tiny wheel attached to a hook line dangling from his jet, saying "See that polymer string? It's touching the ground, so technically I'm on the ground, not flying!"
As the racers entered a section of the track filled with termite mounds, Zach lost control of the ZTV after swerving to avoid hitting one. The remaining racers reach the finish line and Blur is pronounced the winner. At the end of the episode, Zach exclaims "I want a rematch!"
- In "Golden Snub Nosed Monkey Man," Zach used a sled version of the ZTV on his expedition into the Daba Mountains in search for the legendary Yeti. This was also the time in which someone other than Zach used the vehicle, as it was being piloting by one of his Zachbots at the end of the episode.
Trivia[]
- Zach has a framed picture of the ZTV in his skyscraper.
