A tracked articulated vehicle or articulated tracked vehicle (abbreviated as ATV. [ 1 ] but not to be confused with all-terrain vehicle ), is a variation of a continuous track vehicle that consists of two cars, each with their own track, most commonly with an actuated linkage in between.
An articulated vehicle is a vehicle which has a permanent or semi-permanent coupling in its construction. This coupling works as a large pivot joint , allowing it to bend and turn more sharply. There are many kinds, from heavy equipment to buses , trams and trains .
The vehicle design primarily features an unconventional pattern of four active track envelopes providing for large surface contact with the ground for greater stability. In addition to this feature, these ATVs ensures the so-called "kinematic method" for turning the articulated tracked vehicle through the "forced folding" of its units.
articulated vehicle Any vehicle consisting of two or more usually separable wheeled units, such as a towing vehicle (e.g. a tractor unit) combined with a towed vehicle (e.g. a trailer or semi-trailer) that is often unpowered and carrying a load. Articulation is primarily in the steering mode, though some degree of horizontal axis articulation ...

It consists of two units, with all four tracks powered.
Continuous track or tracked treads are a system of vehicle propulsion used in tracked vehicles, running on a continuous band of treads or track plates driven by two or more wheels. The large surface area of the tracks distributes the weight of the vehicle better than steel or rubber tyres on an equivalent vehicle, enabling continuous tracked ...
